Recruiting studies in California
- NCT01385722Enrolling by invitation
Molecular testing for cancers in the chest
This study looks at the genetic changes (molecular analysis) in certain cancers of the chest. It may help doctors learn more about what drives these cancers and how they might be diagnosed or treated in the future.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT00568490Recruiting
Finding blood markers that show low oxygen in tumors
This study looks for substances in blood that may reflect how “low-oxygen” a tumor is. If you have head and neck cancer or non-small cell lung cancer, it may help researchers understand tumor oxygen levels and improve future care.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07127874RecruitingPhase 1
Study of PHN-012 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called PHN-012 for people with advanced colorectal, non-small cell lung, or pancreatic cancer who have already tried at least one standard treatment. The goal is to see if the drug can help shrink or slow tumor growth.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 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.
Beverly Hills, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05987644RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Timing of brain radiation for ALK-positive lung cancer with brain mets
This trial tests whether it is better to delay brain radiation or give it right away in people with ALK-positive lung cancer that has spread to the brain and is causing few or no symptoms. If you are starting alectinib, you may be able to join and help find the best timing for radiation.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT02984761Recruiting
Surgery vs focused radiation for early lung cancer
This trial compares two ways to treat early-stage lung cancer: surgery or a precise type of radiation called stereotactic radiotherapy. It aims to find out which approach works best for people whose cancer is small and has not spread.
Long Beach, CaliforniaAges 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 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.

Common questions
- Are there non small cell lung cancer clinical trials in California?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 247 recruiting non small cell lung cancer studies with a site in California, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a non small cell lung cancer study in California?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in California to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in California, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a non small cell lung cancer trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
Not the right time?
New non small cell lung cancer studies open in California regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
