Recruiting studies
- NCT06773910RecruitingPhase 2
New drug combo vs standard care for limited-stage small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a new combination of drugs (atigotatug and nivolumab) against the standard drug durvalumab for people with limited-stage small cell lung cancer who have completed chemotherapy and radiation without the cancer getting worse.

Study of BMS-986504 for solid tumors with MTAP deletion
This trial tests an experimental drug called BMS-986504, given alone or with other drugs, for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific genetic change called a homozygous MTAP deletion. It may be an option if standard treatments are no longer working or aren't available.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05267626RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
AU-007 antibody for hard-to-remove or spread skin and lung cancers
This trial tests AU-007, an antibody that targets the IL-2 pathway, in people with certain advanced skin (melanoma) or lung (NSCLC) cancers. It’s designed for cancers that have already progressed after prior immune and other treatments, to see if AU-007 can shrink tumors or control disease.
