Testing a new targeted drug for ALK or ROS1 lung cancers
This Phase 1 trial tests APG-2449, a new drug, in people with advanced solid tumors—especially certain lung cancers that have ALK or ROS1 gene fusions. Because it’s an early safety-and-dose study, it may help learn how well the drug works and what doses are safe.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT03958240Recruiting
Study how cancers trigger the immune system
This study looks at what makes some cancers more “noticeable” to the immune system. It may help researchers design better future immunotherapy by collecting information (often including blood samples) from people with different cancers.
ToulouseAges 18 years+ - NCT03978377Recruiting
Checks heart and lung effects after chest radiation
This study looks at how chest radiation treatment affects the heart and lungs in people with certain lung or esophagus cancers. It may help doctors better predict and prevent these side effects during curative (aimed at cure) radiotherapy.
LeuvenAges 18 years+ - NCT03987633Recruiting
Study links health records and samples to understand health gaps
This study asks people affected by a specific illness (or their family member) to share saliva (and sometimes blood) and answer health and quality-of-life questions. The goal is to better understand and reduce health inequality by matching new information with medical records.
Wolverhampton, West MidlandsAges 6 years+ - NCT06580002RecruitingPhase 2
Can Riluzole Help with Chemo Brain? A Pilot Study
This study tests if a medicine called riluzole (currently used for ALS) can help with 'chemo brain' – memory and thinking problems after cancer treatment. It is for people who feel their mental sharpness has declined after breast cancer therapy, certain chemotherapies, or brain radiation.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07703631Recruiting

This study looks at early-stage non-small cell lung cancer patients in Colombia to understand their health, treatments, and biomarkers. It may help doctors learn more about this disease.
BogotáAges 18–80 - NCT07468071RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Continuing opnurasib treatment for patients who are benefiting
This trial allows people who are already taking opnurasib in another Novartis study and seeing good results to keep receiving it. The goal is to let them continue treatment without interruption.
Sint-Niklaas, Oost VlaanderenAges 18–100 - NCT07572383RecruitingPhase 2
Imaging Study of Immunosuppression for Progressive Lung Fibrosis
This study uses advanced imaging to see how immunosuppressive medications (like mycophenolate or prednisone) affect lung scarring in patients with certain types of lung fibrosis. You would have imaging scans and breathing tests to track changes over time.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–80 - NCT06201494Recruiting
Studying early symptoms of asthma in children
This study follows children and teens who are being checked for asthma for the first time. It aims to learn more about the early symptoms of asthma to improve diagnosis and treatment.
PragueAges 3–18 - NCT04025541Recruiting
Blood tests to study tumor markers
This trial looks at blood samples to measure substances that may reflect cancer (tumor markers). It may help doctors understand cancer better and improve future monitoring, as long as you can safely and regularly take part.
MontpellierAges 18 years+ - NCT04038619RecruitingPhase 1
Fecal transplant for immune-therapy diarrhea or bowel inflammation
This early-phase study tests whether stool/fecal microbiota transplant (a fecal transplant) can help people who develop significant diarrhea or colitis after immune-checkpoint therapy. It aims to reduce bowel inflammation and improve symptoms, while carefully checking for infections.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04062292Recruiting
Study of walking balance in lung disease and healthy adults
This study measures how people with obstructive lung diseases walk and maintain balance, compared with people without lung disease. It may help researchers understand movement and balance problems that can happen with breathing conditions.
AnkaraAges 18–65 - NCT04068012Recruiting
Test of a decision support tool for children with PARDS
This trial tests a computer “decision support” tool to help the care team manage treatment for children with PARDS who are just starting a breathing machine. It may help clinicians choose care steps and potentially support safer, more effective breathing management during the first days of ventilation.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 1 month–18 years - NCT04077099RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug for lung cancer with MET changes
This trial tests REGN5093, a study drug, in adults with advanced lung cancer that has a specific change called a MET alteration. If you have this MET change, the study aims to see how well the drug controls the cancer and how safe it is.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT04086082Recruiting
Marker-free X-ray guidance during lung radiotherapy
This study tests a way to guide lung radiation using X-ray images during treatment, without using implanted tracking markers for every step. It may help doctors target tumors more accurately while you receive external beam radiotherapy.
Melbourne, VictoriaAges 18 years+ - NCT04098445Recruiting
Study of lung injury in children after stem cell transplant
This study follows children and teens who get a stem cell transplant to learn how lung problems develop over time. Your participation could help doctors better predict, prevent, and manage lung injury after transplant.
