Sutimab plus chemotherapy for advanced lung cancer needing radiation
This trial tests a cancer-fighting antibody (sugemalimab) added to standard chemotherapy for stage III lung cancer that can’t be removed by surgery but may be treated with radiation. It aims to improve control of your cancer while checking safety and side effects.
ChangshaAges 18–75 - NCT03786003Recruiting
Compare two lung surgery approaches for stage I lung cancer
This trial studies whether a minimally invasive lung surgery (VATS) works as well as the more open approach (thoracotomy) for certain early-stage lung cancers. It may help patients and surgeons choose the best operation method for tumors that can be fully removed.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT06001151RecruitingPhase 2
Cadonilimab plus chemo for PD-L1 negative lung cancer
This trial tests a new immunotherapy drug called cadonilimab combined with chemotherapy as a first treatment for people with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer that does not have the PD-L1 protein. The goal is to see if this combination works better than standard treatments.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT03742687Recruiting
Testing a shorter, stronger radiation schedule for lung cancer
This trial studies a different way to deliver radiation to people with locally advanced, non-operable non-small cell lung cancer. It may help by aiming to treat the tumor effectively with a different radiation timing and dose pattern.
AarhusAges 18 years+ - NCT05732974Recruiting
Using a computer tool to find lung cancer relapse risk
This study uses a machine-learning computer method to identify people with early-stage lung cancer who have a higher risk of the cancer coming back after surgery. If you qualify, your information may help researchers improve how doctors predict relapse and plan follow-up care.
ToulouseAges 18 years+ - NCT05997719Recruiting
Study of EGFR-mutated lung cancer evolution and markers
This study looks at how EGFR-mutated lung cancer changes over time and tries to find markers that can predict how well you might respond to treatment. You will provide a tumor sample for genetic analysis.
GuanzhouAges 18 years+ - NCT07855965RecruitingPhase 2
Ablation with immunotherapy and chemo before lung cancer surgery
This study tests a new approach for people with early-stage lung cancer that can be removed with surgery. Before surgery, patients receive a treatment called cryo-thermal ablation to freeze and heat the tumor, along with an immunotherapy drug (toripalimab) and chemotherapy. The goal is to see if this combination shrinks tumors and improves outcomes after surgery.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–80 - NCT05525338RecruitingPhase 4
Test standard vs adjusted alectinib dose using blood levels
This trial compares the usual dose of alectinib with a modified dose chosen by checking alectinib blood levels. It aims to see whether adjusting the dose based on blood testing can work as well (and possibly be better tolerated) for people with ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer.
Villejuif, Val-de-MarneAges 18 years+ - NCT06476093Recruiting
Radiation plus anlotinib for lung cancer brain spread
This trial tests a combination of focused radiation (stereotactic radiosurgery) and an oral targeted therapy called anlotinib for people with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to the brain. It may offer a way to control brain metastases without more invasive procedures.
Lianyungang, JiangsuAges 18–80 - NCT07784959RecruitingPhase 1
Study of NXP900 with lorlatinib for ALK-positive lung cancer
