Recruiting studies in California
- NCT05877599RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a new treatment for advanced cancers with a specific gene change
This trial tests a new type of therapy (NT-175) for people with certain advanced cancers that have a specific genetic change. It might help if your tumor has the TP53 R175H mutation and you have the HLA-A*02:01 immune marker.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04969315RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Drug TT-10 and TT-4 for advanced solid tumors
This early-phase trial tests two investigational drugs—TT-10 and TT-4—alone and together in people with advanced solid cancers. The study is designed to find safe doses and see if the treatment can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04981119Recruiting
Test apheresis for CAR T manufacturing in HLA-A2 solid tumors
This trial studies how a process called apheresis is used to make CAR T cells for people with certain solid tumors. It is designed for tumors that have lost a specific immune marker (HLA-A*02), which may affect how well CAR T therapies work.
Santa Monica, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05005403RecruitingPhase 1
Testing azirkitug for lung, head/neck, and other solid cancers
This Phase 1 study tests how a new medicine (azirkitug) behaves in the body and how safe it is, given by IV infusion alone or with other cancer drugs. It may help people with several advanced solid tumor cancers, especially after standard treatments have stopped working.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05086692RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Beta-only IL-2 therapy for advanced solid tumors
This Phase 1/2 study tests a beta-only version of IL-2, an immune-stimulating treatment, to shrink or control advanced or metastatic solid tumors. It’s mainly designed to check safety and to see if it can help patients by improving tumor response.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05107674RecruitingPhase 1
Early drug study for advanced cancers that have limited options
This Phase 1 study tests NX-1607 in adults with advanced cancers that are hard to treat with standard care. It focuses on safety and early signs of how well the drug may work in specific cancer types.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05123482RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Early study of AZD8205 for advanced solid tumors
This Phase 1/2 study tests how safe and effective AZD8205 is for people with advanced or metastatic solid cancers that have come back or spread after standard treatments. It may help by finding the right dose and whether AZD8205 works alone or with another treatment in different cancer types.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05168566RecruitingPhase 2
Sutetinib for lung cancer with a specific EGFR change
This Phase 2 study tests sutetinib capsules in people with advanced (locally advanced or metastatic) non-small cell lung cancer. It’s for tumors that have a specific, uncommon EGFR mutation, and aims to see how well the drug can control the cancer with limited prior chemotherapy.
Glendale, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05236114Recruiting
Study of blood and tumor tests for lung cancer treatment
This study looks at how tumor and blood biomarker results can guide treatment for people with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Depending on the cancer stage, it may follow standard-of-care treatment plans around surgery or first-line immunotherapy.
Fountain Valley, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05257551Recruiting
Small cell lung cancer data study using tumor and blood samples
This observational study collects information and lab samples from people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. It may help researchers understand how patients respond and improve future care, but it usually does not add new treatment for you.
Los Alamitos, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05361174RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing an IOV-4001 infusion for advanced melanoma or lung cancer
This trial studies how well and how safely an infusion called IOV-4001 works in adults with advanced melanoma or non-small-cell lung cancer that cannot be removed with surgery. It also aims to see what side effects occur and whether the treatment can help control the cancer.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–70 - NCT05452005RecruitingPhase 1
PET scan with a new tracer for lung cancer brain metastases
This Phase 1 study tests whether a specialized PET scan tracer can “light up” metastatic non-small cell lung cancer in the brain. If you join, you’ll get brain MRI and PET/CT scans and you’ll continue with your planned cancer treatments and follow-up imaging.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05456256RecruitingPhase 2
LP-300 plus chemo for lung cancer in never-smokers
This Phase 2 trial tests LP-300 with carboplatin and pemetrexed to treat advanced lung adenocarcinoma in people who have never smoked. It may help shrink tumors and slow the disease in a specific genetic group of lung cancer.
Fountain Valley, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05498428RecruitingPhase 2
Amivantamab for advanced lung cancer with EGFR mutations
This Phase 2 study tests amivantamab (an antibody medicine) in people with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer that has specific EGFR gene changes. It may help shrink tumors or control cancer when standard curative treatments aren’t possible.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05524584RecruitingPhase 2
Anastrozole, fulvestrant, and abemaciclib for hormone-positive breast cancer
This trial tests whether combining three medicines can better control hormone-receptor–positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer that cannot be cured with surgery or radiation. It may help shrink tumors and slow disease growth compared with standard hormone therapy approaches.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05579366RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug for advanced ovarian and other solid cancers
This Phase 1/2 trial studies Rinatabart Sesutecan to treat advanced cancers, with special focus on certain ovarian cancer types. It’s meant for people whose cancer has come back or has not responded to prior treatments.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05786924RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Targeted cancer drug study for RAS/RAF mutation-positive tumors
This Phase 1/2 study tests S241656 (a targeted cancer medicine) in people whose cancers have certain “RAS/RAF” gene changes. It may help shrink tumors or control cancer growth, and also finds the safest dose and best way to use the drug.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05789082RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Divarasib for untreated lung cancer with KRAS G12C
This trial studies divarasib to see if it is safe and can shrink or control advanced lung cancer. Participants must have a KRAS G12C mutation and have not had prior treatment for their advanced disease.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05830058RecruitingPhase 2
PET-guided focused radiation for limited worsening lung, melanoma, kidney cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether using a PET scan to guide focused radiation (SBRT) can control a small number of cancer spots that are starting to grow despite prior treatment. It may help patients avoid wider radiation by targeting only the limited progressing areas.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05899608RecruitingPhase 3
Testing ivonescimab as first treatment for metastatic lung cancer
This Phase 3 trial tests ivonescimab as a first-line treatment for metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It may help people by improving how well the cancer responds, especially in tumors with PD-L1 activity, but you must meet specific medical and testing requirements.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05967689RecruitingPhase 2
Zipalertinib for lung cancer with EGFR exon 20 mutations
This Phase 2 trial tests zipalertinib (a targeted pill) in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has specific EGFR mutations, especially “exon 20 insertions.” It may help shrink tumors or slow cancer growth, including in some people with brain metastases.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05983432RecruitingPhase 1
Study of BL-B01D1 for advanced lung and other solid tumors

What taking part in a non small cell lung cancer metastatic 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.
