Chemo and immunotherapy plus short targeted drug for lung cancer
This Phase 1/2 trial tests how safe and how well a combination of chemo and immunotherapy works when followed by a short course of a targeted “MEK” inhibitor as first treatment for metastatic lung adenocarcinoma with PD-L1 below 50%. It may help some people control cancer better, while also providing more information about side effects and the best way to use these medicines together.
Dijon, BurgundyAges 18 years+ - NCT05933239RecruitingPhase 2
PET-like scan using a special protein in lung cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether a new imaging medicine (a radiopharmaceutical) can highlight immune cells called macrophages in people with non-small cell lung cancer. It may help doctors better “see” and evaluate tumor tissue before a surgical biopsy or removal.
Jette, Brussels CapitalAges 18 years+ - NCT05025774Recruiting
Exercise program study for young heart, leukemia, and lung survivors
This study looks at how an exercise program affects fitness and lung function in young people who are survivors of certain conditions (heart transplant, leukemia, or lung disease from prematurity). The goal is to see whether exercise can improve breathing and overall physical function safely.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 8–25 - NCT05889247Recruiting
Blood test guided monitoring for advanced lung cancer treatment
This trial checks whether a blood test that looks for cancer DNA can help guide and monitor treatment in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It may help your team spot treatment response or changes earlier, so care can be adjusted appropriately.
Hillerød, Region HAges Any age - NCT05889546Recruiting
Rapid autopsy protocol for small cell lung cancer patients
This study looks at a planned, faster way to collect information from patients’ bodies after death who have small cell lung cancer. The goal is to better understand the disease and potentially improve future care, with consent from the patient or their authorized representative.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18 years+ - NCT05886439RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug plus PD-1 or PD-L1 for lung cancer
This Phase 1/2 trial tests a new treatment called LK101 combined with a PD-1 or PD-L1 antibody for advanced lung cancer. It may help shrink tumors and improve control of the disease, especially after prior anti–PD-1/PD-L1 treatment has stopped working.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05882058RecruitingPhase 2
Dose test of a DLL3 cancer drug for neuroendocrine tumors
This Phase 2 study tests how different doses of BI 764532 affect people with small cell lung cancer or certain other neuroendocrine cancers. It may help shrink tumors and improve symptoms after standard treatments have stopped working.
Mobile, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05878717RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Belimumab for adults with scleroderma lung scarring
This Phase 2/3 study tests whether belimumab can improve outcomes and safety in adults with systemic sclerosis (scleroderma) that has caused lung scarring. It may help by reducing active or worsening immune-driven disease in the lungs.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05864794Recruiting
