Recruiting studies
- NCT06883136Enrolling by invitation
Sintilimab plus chemo for elderly advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of the immunotherapy drug sintilimab plus standard chemotherapy (platinum-based doublet) as the first treatment for older adults (60–80) with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that does not have certain gene mutations. The goal is to see if this approach works better than chemotherapy alone.
Jinan, ShandongAges 60–80 - NCT06838273RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a new drug combo for EGFR-mutated lung cancer
This trial tests a new combination of two drugs (BL-B01D1 and osimertinib) versus osimertinib alone as the first treatment for people with a specific type of advanced lung cancer that has an EGFR mutation. The goal is to see if the combination works better at stopping the cancer from growing.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06430437RecruitingPhase 3
Study of SHR-A1811 for first-line treatment of advanced lung cancer with HER2 mutations
This trial tests a new drug called SHR-A1811 for people with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer that has a change (mutation) in the HER2 gene. You cannot have had any previous treatment for advanced lung cancer, and the cancer must be measurable outside the brain.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT04686305RecruitingPhase 1
Test drug T-DXd plus immunotherapy, with or without chemotherapy for HER2+ lung cancer
This Phase 1 study tests the safety (and early effectiveness) of T-DXd combined with immunotherapy, sometimes also with chemotherapy, in people with advanced lung cancer that is HER2-positive. It may help if standard options have been limited or your tumor does not have certain genetic changes that already have targeted treatments.

Adding Biotherapy or Placebo to Standard Kidney Cancer Treatment
This trial tests whether adding a biotherapy (a special drug from a living source) or a placebo to standard treatments helps people with advanced kidney cancer. It may be a good option if your cancer hasn't been treated yet and you are in fairly good health.
Fayetteville, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT06169956Recruiting
Study of nivolumab with chemo before lung cancer surgery
This study looks at how well the immunotherapy drug nivolumab (Opdivo) works when given with standard chemotherapy before surgery for people with a certain type of lung cancer that has not spread. It may help shrink the tumor before surgery.

This study tests if a respiratory (breathing) rehabilitation program can improve quality of life for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer who are on maintenance treatment after initial chemotherapy and immunotherapy.
BrestAges 18 years+ - NCT07288632Recruiting
Lung cancer gene test and blood clot risk study
This study looks at whether certain gene profiles in advanced lung cancer affect the risk of blood clots. It may help doctors better understand and prevent clots in people starting new cancer treatment.
Perugia, PerugiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04691817RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing tocilizumab plus atezolizumab after lung cancer treatment failure
This trial studies whether combining tocilizumab with atezolizumab can help people with advanced lung cancer that has already stopped responding to an immune checkpoint medicine. It may help when standard immune therapy (and other treatments) aren’t working anymore.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06475300RecruitingPhase 2
BL-B01D1 plus immunotherapy for advanced lung and throat cancers
This trial tests a new combination treatment (BL-B01D1 plus a PD-1 inhibitor) for people with advanced lung cancer or nasopharyngeal cancer. It aims to see if the combination is safe and effective for patients whose cancer has not responded to earlier treatments.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT05956587RecruitingPhase 2
Testing two study drugs for advanced lung cancer and other tumors
This Phase 2 study tests a combination of two experimental medicines in people with advanced or metastatic solid cancers, including non-small cell lung cancer and nasopharyngeal cancer. It aims to see whether the drugs can shrink tumors and improve outcomes, while carefully checking safety and eligibility.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for metastatic cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,866 recruiting metastatic cancer studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a metastatic cancer trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a metastatic cancer trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
