Personalized cancer vaccine plus Keytruda for lung cancer after surgery
This study tests a new personalized cancer vaccine (V940) plus Keytruda versus a placebo plus Keytruda for people with non-small cell lung cancer that was removed by surgery. The goal is to see if the vaccine helps prevent the cancer from coming back.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06498635RecruitingPhase 3
Immunotherapy after surgery for lung cancer with no remaining cancer
This trial tests whether giving immunotherapy (durvalumab) after surgery can help prevent lung cancer from coming back if you already had a complete response to chemo and immunotherapy before surgery. It is for people with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer who had no cancer left after treatment.
Allentown, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07190248RecruitingPhase 3
Calderasib plus other treatments for advanced non-small cell lung cancer

Lancaster, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05920356RecruitingPhase 3
Tested KRAS-targeted sotorasib plus chemo vs pembrolizumab plus chemo
This Phase 3 trial tests whether sotorasib plus standard chemotherapy works better than pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy) plus standard chemotherapy as first treatment for certain advanced lung cancers. It may help people whose tumors have a KRAS G12C mutation and that do not show PD-L1 on testing.
Media, PennsylvaniaAges 18–100 - 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+ - NCT06452277RecruitingPhase 3
Testing sevabertinib for advanced HER2-mutated lung cancer

Bensalem, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06627647RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing two immunotherapy drugs for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new immunotherapy drug, rilvegostomig, against the standard pembrolizumab, both given with chemotherapy, as a first treatment for advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that cannot be cured with surgery or radiation. It is for people whose tumors have high PD-L1 levels and do not have certain genetic mutations.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06312137RecruitingPhase 3
Pembrolizumab with or without another drug for lung cancer after surgery
This trial tests adding a new drug (sacituzumab tirumotecan) to pembrolizumab for people with non-small cell lung cancer that did not completely disappear after initial treatment and surgery. The goal is to see if the combination works better than pembrolizumab alone.
Hershey, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06692738RecruitingPhase 3
Is a new immunotherapy better than Keytruda for squamous lung cancer?
This trial tests a new drug called Rilvegostomig against the standard drug pembrolizumab (Keytruda), both combined with chemotherapy, as a first treatment for advanced squamous non-small cell lung cancer. It aims to see which combination works better.
Hershey, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06801834RecruitingPhase 3
Study of sacituzumab govitecan vs. standard care for advanced small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug called sacituzumab govitecan against the usual treatments for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer that has gotten worse after initial chemotherapy. It aims to see if the new drug helps patients live longer or have better outcomes.
Easton, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07361510RecruitingPhase 3
Pumitamig vs Keytruda for advanced lung cancer with high PD-L1
This trial compares an experimental drug called Pumitamig with the approved immunotherapy drug Pembrolizumab (Keytruda) as the first treatment for advanced lung cancer that has high PD-L1 levels. The goal is to see which drug works better and has fewer side effects.

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.
