Recruiting studies in Illinois
- NCT07291037RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing a new drug to standard chemo for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug called datopotamab deruxtecan against a standard chemotherapy (docetaxel) for people with a certain type of advanced lung cancer (non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer) that has already been treated. The new drug targets a protein called TROP2 found on cancer cells, which may help slow or stop the cancer's growth.

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.
