Beverly Hills, CaliforniaAges 12 years+ - NCT04181060RecruitingPhase 3
Osimertinib alone or with bevacizumab for EGFR-mutant lung cancer
This Phase 3 trial tests whether starting osimertinib with or without bevacizumab helps people with advanced EGFR-mutant lung cancer live longer and control the cancer better. Your EGFR mutation test result and past treatments are key to whether you can join.

Burbank, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06170788RecruitingPhase 3
New Two-Drug Immunotherapy Combo vs. Standard Immunotherapy for Advanced Lung Cancer
This study compares a new combination of two immunotherapy drugs (sacituzumab tirumotecan plus pembrolizumab) versus pembrolizumab alone for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a high PD-L1 level (≥50%) and has not been treated yet. The goal is to see if the combination works better than the standard single immunotherapy.

What taking part in a metastatic cancer study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
