Recruiting studies in Illinois
- NCT05283330RecruitingPhase 1
Tested 212Pb imaging drug for certain advanced GRPR tumors
This early-phase study tests how safe and tolerable an experimental radiation drug is for adults with certain advanced or metastatic cancers that show a target called GRPR. Doctors will also use special scans to confirm the tumor has the target so the treatment can be delivered to the right place.

Chicago, IllinoisAges 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.
Carterville, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05176483RecruitingPhase 1
New drug combinations for advanced solid tumors

This trial tests lutetium Lu 177 dotatate, a targeted radiation treatment, for advanced lung neuroendocrine (carcinoid) tumors that have a specific marker called somatostatin receptors. It may help shrink tumors by delivering radiation directly to cancer cells that “light up” on a special scan.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT04614103RecruitingPhase 2
Immune cell therapy for advanced lung cancer after chemotherapy
This trial studies LN-145, a treatment made from your own immune cells, for metastatic (stage IV) non-small-cell lung cancer. It may help shrink tumors after your cancer has progressed despite standard first-line chemotherapy and immunotherapy.
Park Ridge, IllinoisAges 18–70 - NCT04613596RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Adagrasib for KRAS G12C lung cancer, alone or with pembrolizumab
This trial studies adagrasib (an anti-cancer drug) either alone or with pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy) in people with advanced lung cancer that has a KRAS G12C mutation. It aims to shrink tumors and improve outcomes, including for people without urgent brain treatment needs.
Arlington Heights, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT04389632RecruitingPhase 1
Sigvotatug vedotin for advanced solid tumors that spread
This early-stage study tests a drug called sigvotatug vedotin in people with advanced solid cancers that cannot be removed or have spread. It aims to see how well the treatment works and what side effects it causes.
Calumet City, IllinoisAges 18 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.
Alton, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT04198766RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
New OX40 immunotherapy for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new immunotherapy drug (INBRX-106) alone or with Keytruda (pembrolizumab) for adults with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if the drug can help the immune system fight cancer.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT03866382RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus a targeted drug for rare genitourinary tumors
This Phase 2 study tests whether nivolumab and ipilimumab (immunotherapy drugs) plus cabozantinib (a targeted anti-cancer drug) can shrink or control rare cancers of the urinary/reproductive system that have spread. It may help by boosting the immune system and blocking cancer growth signals at the same time.
Alton, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05455619RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Targeted drugs for PI3K-altered, HR+/HER2- breast cancer
This Phase 1/2 trial tests how well a combination of targeted medicines works for advanced or returning HR+/HER2- breast cancer that has a PI3K pathway change (such as PIK3CA, PTEN, or AKT1). It may help by blocking growth signals in the cancer and is especially for people whose cancer has progressed after hormone therapy and a CDK4/6 inhibitor.

This trial tests a new drug (BMS-986504) combined with an existing chemotherapy (pemetrexed) for advanced solid cancers that have a specific genetic change called MTAP deletion. The trial aims to see if this combination can slow or stop tumor growth in patients whose cancer has progressed despite prior treatment.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT03816345RecruitingPhase 1
Nivolumab for advanced cancer with autoimmune disease
This trial tests whether the immunotherapy drug nivolumab can safely treat advanced cancer in people who also have an autoimmune disease like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, or multiple sclerosis. It aims to find out if the drug may help control cancer while managing their autoimmune condition.

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.
