Camden, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05211895RecruitingPhase 3
Durvalumab plus domvanalimab after chemoradiation for stage 3 lung cancer
This trial studies whether adding durvalumab and domvanalimab after standard chemoradiation can keep unresectable stage 3 lung cancer from coming back or getting worse. It targets tumors with specific lab test results (including PD-L1 and gene markers).
Chandler, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05215327RecruitingPhase 2
Higher-dose flu vaccine vs standard dose after lung transplant
This trial tests whether a higher dose of flu vaccine works better than the standard dose for people who have had a lung transplant. It may help improve protection against seasonal flu while monitoring safety.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 16 years+ - NCT05221372Recruiting
Sampling study for lung cancer patients on targeted pills
This trial collects blood samples from adults with advanced lung cancer that has a specific gene change and who are already taking targeted pill treatment (TKIs). The goal is to learn from these samples and how they relate to the cancer in patients on standard therapy.
RotterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT05227222Recruiting
Device treatment for lung swelling after swimming
This trial tests a specific device to treat a lung condition called swimming-induced pulmonary edema, where fluid collects in the lungs after swimming. It may help people who need quick, acute treatment to get breathing better.
FalunAges 18 years+ - NCT05227547Recruiting
Study of lung cell changes in smokers and lung disease
This study looks at specific lung cells (called alveolar cells) to understand how smoking and chronic lung disease may change them. You may be invited if you are having lung surgery and can safely take part.
CréteilAges 18 years+ - NCT05229614RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus carbon ion radiation for stable solid tumors
This trial studies whether adding carbon ion radiation to ongoing immunotherapy can help people whose cancer is currently stable. It targets solid cancers where scans show the disease is not growing quickly, aiming to improve control without causing unsafe side effects.
DarmstadtAges 18 years+ - NCT05235165RecruitingPhase 3
Surgery choice for lung spread of osteosarcoma
