Testing a new cancer drug for advanced solid tumors
This early-phase trial tests how well a new drug (BMS-986340) works alone and combined with other treatments in people with advanced solid tumors that have progressed despite standard care. It also studies tumor samples to look for biomarkers that may predict who benefits.
Clovis, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04899908RecruitingPhase 2
Brain radiation with or without gadolinium nanoparticles for brain metastases
This trial tests whether adding tiny gadolinium-containing nanoparticles to standard brain radiation can better control brain metastases from certain cancers. It is for people with tumors that have grown after immunotherapy, are from certain cancers (like melanoma, GI, or HER2+ breast), are cystic, are large, or have come back after prior radiation.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04903262Recruiting
Extra CO2 removal to protect lungs in moderate ARDS
This study tests an “extra-CO2 removal” breathing support approach to help protect the lungs in people with moderate ARDS, a serious lung injury. You would be on a ventilator for a short time, and the team would check whether this approach improves breathing outcomes while aiming to be safer for the lungs.
BolognaAges 18–100 - NCT04916990Recruiting
Care program for rural adults with several lung and head cancers
This study looks at how to improve care for adults with certain cancers who live in rural areas and may face access problems. It mainly focuses on people receiving cancer treatment at specific Colorado-area hospitals, and who are uninsured or underinsured.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18–99 - NCT04921943RecruitingPhase 4
Hypertonic saline to treat MAC lung infection
This trial tests whether inhaled hypertonic saline can improve symptoms and lung health in people with a specific lung infection called MAC. It targets adults with confirmed MAC infection and bronchiectasis who are not already on certain MAC medications.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04926584Recruiting
Immunotherapy for advanced or limited-spread lung cancer
This trial tests whether starting immunotherapy can help people with newly diagnosed advanced or limited-spread non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be fully cured with standard local treatments. It may offer a new treatment approach when surgery or definitive chemoradiation isn’t a good option.
Esslingen am NeckarAges 18 years+ - NCT04927429Recruiting
MRI study to improve heart imaging
This trial helps develop and fine-tune MRI scans that look at the heart and blood vessels. It may help people with heart-related symptoms or conditions by improving how MRI images are created and interpreted.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18–100 - NCT04930432RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
MCLA-129 for advanced EGFR- and MET-positive lung and other cancers
This early-phase trial tests MCLA-129, an antibody that targets EGFR and MET, in people with advanced cancers that have specific lab “biomarker” results. It’s for patients whose cancer has grown after standard treatments or can’t take standard treatment, with the goal of shrinking tumors and improving symptoms.
BaodingAges 18 years+ - NCT04933903RecruitingPhase 2
Neoadjuvant low-dose radiation plus immunotherapy before lung surgery
This trial tests whether giving low-dose focused radiation and two immunotherapy drugs before lung surgery can improve outcomes for people with operable, resectable non-small cell lung cancer. It aims to shrink or control the cancer before surgery and help reduce the chance it comes back.
Providence, Rhode IslandAges 18 years+ - NCT05339568Recruiting
Smartphone support program for people with advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a “whole process follow-up” care plan, using a smartphone, to support people with non-small cell lung cancer from diagnosis through treatment and follow-up. It may help you manage care steps more smoothly if you’re not a candidate for curative (radical) treatment or don’t want surgery.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18 years+ - NCT07699861Recruiting
Thoracic cancers during pregnancy registry
This registry collects information on thoracic cancers (like lung cancer, mesothelioma, or chest tumors) that occur during pregnancy. It helps doctors learn more about how to care for both the mother and baby.
