Recruiting studies near Philadelphia
- NCT05502523Recruiting
Blood test DNA levels after lung surgery
This study looks at how different lung surgical techniques affect levels of tumor DNA in the blood before and after surgery for early-stage lung cancer. It may help doctors choose surgical approaches and use a blood test to monitor cancer after surgery.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07057791RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo plus immunotherapy for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy (platinum/etoposide) plus an immunotherapy drug (ivonescimab) for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer who have not received treatment before. The goal is to see if adding the immunotherapy improves outcomes.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04585750RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Studying a new drug for cancers with a specific TP53 change
This trial tests a new drug (rezatapopt) for people with advanced cancers that have a specific change in the TP53 gene, called Y220C. The drug is designed to target this change and may slow or stop cancer growth. Some participants may also receive an immunotherapy drug called pembrolizumab (Keytruda).
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 12 years+ - NCT05624996RecruitingPhase 3
Targeted high-dose radiation added to standard lung cancer treatment
This trial tests whether adding high-dose, targeted radiation to the usual treatment helps people with locally advanced, non-operable lung cancer live longer or better control the cancer. It may help shrink tumors in the chest and improve outcomes when surgery can’t be done.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07027514RecruitingPhase 1

It is for people with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer who had no cancer left after treatment.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06686771RecruitingPhase 3
Radiation for limited growth in advanced lung cancer on immunotherapy
This trial tests whether giving high-precision radiation to a few spots that are growing during immunotherapy (with or without chemotherapy) can help people with advanced lung cancer. It aims to see if treating these limited areas of resistance can extend the time the cancer stays under control.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04665739RecruitingPhase 2
Lutetium Lu-177 for lung carcinoid tumors with somatostatin receptors
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.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06616584RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Cemiplimab plus standard care for advanced lung cancer after prior treatments
This trial tests whether adding the immunotherapy drug cemiplimab to standard treatment can help people with advanced lung cancer that has already progressed after both platinum chemo and a prior immunotherapy. It is designed for those who responded to their first immunotherapy for at least 12 weeks before the cancer started growing again.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05098132RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
STK-012 drug for advanced lung cancer and other tumors
This trial tests STK-012 (alone and with other treatments) in people with advanced cancers, especially non-small cell lung cancer. It may help by activating the immune system to recognize and fight the tumor.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06667908RecruitingPhase 2
Study of a drug with chemoradiation for stage 3 lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug, JNJ-90301900, given together with standard chemotherapy and radiation, followed by maintenance immunotherapy (durvalumab) for people with stage 3 non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be surgically removed. The goal is to see if adding this drug improves outcomes.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06561386RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a new drug combo for advanced lung cancer
This trial is comparing a new combination of two immunotherapy drugs (nivolumab and relatlimab) plus chemotherapy against the standard immunotherapy (pembrolizumab) plus chemotherapy for people with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer that has a certain protein (PD-L1) on at least 1% of its cells. The goal is to see if the new combination works better.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06706076RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Experimental pill for lung cancer with EGFR or HER2 changes
This study tests an experimental pill that targets cancer cells with certain gene changes (EGFR or HER2). It may help shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06767514RecruitingPhase 3
Ivonescimab for first-line treatment of advanced NSCLC with high PD-L1
This trial tests a new drug called Ivonescimab as the first treatment for people with advanced (stage IV) non-small cell lung cancer whose tumors have high levels of PD-L1 (a protein that helps cancer hide from the immune system). The goal is to see if it can help shrink or control the cancer.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06731907RecruitingPhase 2
Keytruda with or without chemo for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new combination of drugs (Keytruda with or without chemotherapy) to see if it works better for advanced lung cancer. It's for people who haven't had immunotherapy or chemotherapy for their cancer that has spread.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06667076RecruitingPhase 2
Amivantamab combinations for advanced EGFR-mutant lung cancer
This trial tests two treatment combinations for people with a specific type of advanced lung cancer that has an EGFR mutation. One group gets amivantamab plus lazertinib, and the other gets amivantamab plus chemotherapy. The goal is to see which combo works better.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07276789RecruitingPhase 2
Single-dose dye imaging for lung cancer surgery
This trial tests a single dose of a special dye (LS301-IT) that helps surgeons see lung cancer cells more clearly during surgery. It aims to make lung cancer removal more precise and complete.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06858813RecruitingPhase 1
ABBV-324 for advanced liver or lung cancer
This study tests an experimental IV drug (ABBV-324) for adults with advanced liver cancer (HCC) or advanced squamous lung cancer (LUSC). It aims to see if the drug is safe and whether it can help control the disease.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05800587RecruitingPhase 2
Reduced-dose chemotherapy for advanced lung cancer
This trial studies a lower (reduced) dose of chemotherapy in people with advanced lung cancer who may not tolerate standard treatment. It aims to see if the treatment still works while being safer for “compromised” patients.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07030257RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of CP-383 for advanced solid tumors
This study tests a new drug called CP-383 for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments. The goal is to see if it can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth, especially for certain cancers with genetic changes.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06774963RecruitingPhase 1
Study of LNCB74 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called LNCB74 for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective.

Study of IDE849 for DLL3-positive cancers like SCLC
This trial tests a new drug called IDE849 for cancers that make a protein called DLL3, including small cell lung cancer and some neuroendocrine tumors. It is for people whose cancer has progressed after standard treatments, and may be given alone or combined with other drugs like durvalumab or IDE161.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06216301RecruitingPhase 3

What taking part in a non small cell lung cancer 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.
