This trial tests a coaching program to help you become more physically active after surgery for early-stage lung cancer. It may help you recover and improve your well-being.
Genk, LimburgAges 18 years+ - NCT03431064Recruiting
Ultrasound test during surgery to predict fluid needs in children
This study looks at a specific breathing maneuver done while your child is on a ventilator during surgery, and uses ultrasound-related measurements to predict whether they’ll need extra fluids. If it works, it may help doctors give the right amount of fluid and avoid problems from too little or too much.
Boston, MassachusettsAges Up to 17 years - NCT01776398Recruiting
Donating breath, blood, and urine samples for lung research
This study collects airway samples (usually during a bronchoscopy), plus blood and/or urine, to help researchers study lung conditions. It may help advance understanding of lung disease and related biology, but it is not a treatment trial.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06033196RecruitingPhase 2
Tocilizumab after lung transplant
This study tests whether the drug tocilizumab can help prevent your body from rejecting a new lung after transplant. It might help improve the success of your transplant by reducing immune system activity.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 12–75 - NCT06036719Recruiting
Lung scarring study from childhood to old age
This trial looks at different types of lung scarring (called interstitial lung disease) to better understand the condition across all ages. It also includes family members of people with certain genetic mutations that affect the lungs.
Paris, Île-de-France RegionAges Any age - NCT06047379RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing NEO212 for brain tumors and metastases
This trial tests a new drug called NEO212 for people with certain brain tumors (like astrocytoma or glioblastoma) or cancer that has spread to the brain from other parts of the body. The goal is to see if it is safe and if it can help shrink or control the tumors.
Beverly Hills, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06038227Recruiting
Robotic vs. VATS surgery for early lung cancer
This study compares two types of minimally invasive surgery—robotic-assisted (da Vinci) and VATS—for people with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer. The goal is to see which approach might work better and help patients recover faster.
CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT06043817RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of STX-721 for advanced lung cancer with EGFR or HER2 changes
This trial tests a new drug, STX-721, for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific genetic change (EGFR or HER2 exon 20 insertion). The study aims to see if the drug is safe and effective.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06033248Recruiting
Urine test for early lung cancer detection
This study is testing if urine samples can help detect lung cancer early. You might help by providing a urine sample—either if you have early-stage lung cancer, have a suspicious lung nodule, or don’t have lung cancer at all.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18–90 - NCT06053164RecruitingPhase 2
Portable oxygen for activity in mild-to-moderate lung disease
This study is testing whether using portable oxygen during physical activity can help people with mild-to-moderate interstitial lung disease feel better and be more active. It is for people whose oxygen levels drop during exercise but are normal at rest.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18–85 - NCT06047301Recruiting
Pathways: A hope program for advanced lung cancer patients
This study tests a program called 'Pathways' that helps people with advanced lung cancer set personal goals, manage mental health, and improve quality of life. It's for those who are already receiving IV cancer treatment and are feeling some distress.
Lexington, KentuckyAges 18 years+ - NCT04980716RecruitingPhase 3
Heart-based early intervention for stage III lung cancer using heart signals
This trial tests an early heart-focused intervention guided by a special heart recording (impedance cardiography) in people with locally advanced, unresectable stage III non-small cell lung cancer. The goal is to improve heart-related safety during planned radiation and chemotherapy, with or without immunotherapy.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06026111Recruiting
Exercise during immunotherapy for lung cancer
This study tests if adding a structured exercise program can help people with non-small cell lung cancer who are already on immunotherapy. It is for people who are not currently very active and are willing to travel to Dana-Farber Cancer Institute for some visits.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06008730RecruitingPhase 2
Proton beam radiation after lung cancer surgery
This trial tests if proton beam radiation therapy is safe and effective after surgery for non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to lymph nodes in the chest. It is for people who have already had chemotherapy before their surgery.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06016569Recruiting
Breath test for early lung cancer in high-risk smokers
This study tests a new breath test to find early signs of lung cancer in people at high risk. It looks for cancer biomarkers in the air you breathe out. If you are a heavy smoker between 55 and 74, this trial may help detect lung cancer earlier.
BrnoAges 55–74 - NCT05974150Recruiting
Remote symptom monitoring for several blood and cancer types

Study of ZG006 for small cell lung cancer or neuroendocrine carcinoma
This trial tests a new drug, ZG006, that targets a protein called DLL3 found on some cancer cells. It may be an option for people with small cell lung cancer or neuroendocrine carcinoma who have run out of standard treatments.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18–75 - NCT05985330Recruiting
Study of FeNO as a marker for immunotherapy response in lung cancer

DijonAges 18 years+ - NCT05987644RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Timing of brain radiation for ALK-positive lung cancer with brain mets

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for lung?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 2,828 recruiting lung studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a lung trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a lung trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
