- NCT04267848RecruitingPhase 3
Testing immunotherapy with chemo after lung cancer surgery
This trial tests whether adding an immunotherapy medicine to standard chemotherapy after surgery can improve outcomes for some people with non-small cell lung cancer. It may help by boosting the immune system to reduce the chance the cancer comes back.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04302025RecruitingPhase 2
Testing targeted and immunotherapy before lung cancer surgery
This trial studies whether giving different cancer medicines before (and sometimes after) surgery improves outcomes for people with early-stage, operable lung cancer that has certain tumor markers. It may help by trying to shrink or control the cancer early and lower the chance it comes back.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07566052RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing a new KRAS drug to docetaxel for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new pill (setidegrasib) against a standard chemo drug (docetaxel) for people with a specific type of advanced lung cancer that has a KRAS G12D mutation. The goal is to see which treatment works better.

Comparing two drugs for first-line treatment of advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug called Rilvegostomig against the standard drug pembrolizumab (Keytruda) for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has high levels of PD-L1 protein. The goal is to see which drug works better as a first treatment before any other cancer therapy.
Silver Spring, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07144280RecruitingPhase 3
Study of a new drug vs docetaxel for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new experimental drug called PF-08046054/SGN-PDL1V against a standard chemotherapy (docetaxel) for people with a type of advanced lung cancer that has PD-L1 protein on at least 1% of tumor cells and has progressed after prior treatments. The goal is to see if the new drug works better or has fewer side effects.
Silver Spring, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT03340506RecruitingPhase 4
Follow-on treatment study for dabrafenib and trametinib
This study lets people who finished a prior dabrafenib/trametinib trial (sponsored by Novartis or former GSK) continue those medicines if the study doctor thinks it will help. It mainly focuses on ongoing treatment benefit rather than testing a new drug.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–100 - 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.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05592626RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
T cell activator STAR0602 for advanced solid tumors
This study tests an experimental drug called STAR0602 that aims to boost your immune system's T cells to fight advanced solid tumors. It's for patients whose cancer has not responded to standard treatments or for whom such treatments are not suitable.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06066138RecruitingPhase 1
Trial: Adjusting Atezolizumab Dose Based on Drug Levels in Blood
This study tests whether adjusting the dose of the immunotherapy drug atezolizumab (Tecentriq) based on its levels in your blood works well. You may be able to join if you have advanced cancer and your doctor already plans to give you this drug (alone or with other approved treatments).
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT06793215RecruitingPhase 3
Divarasib plus pembrolizumab for KRAS G12C lung cancer
This trial compares a new targeted drug (divarasib) combined with an immunotherapy (pembrolizumab) versus standard chemotherapy plus immunotherapy for people with advanced lung cancer that has a specific KRAS G12C mutation. It aims to see if the new combination works better and is safe.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05099172RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Targeted therapy for advanced lung cancer with EGFR or HER2 changes
This trial tests a new targeted drug for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has specific genetic changes (EGFR or HER2). The drug may slow cancer growth and help you live longer.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07509034RecruitingPhase 1
Targeted immune cells for recurrent small cell lung cancer

It is for people whose tumors have high PD-L1 levels and do not have certain genetic mutations.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT03412877RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized immune-cell therapy for advanced metastatic cancers

CAR T-cell therapy for CD19-positive leukemias and lymphomas
This trial tests a new immune therapy that uses your own cells (CAR T-cells) to find and attack cancer cells with the CD19 protein. It is for people with certain types of leukemia or lymphoma that have not responded to other treatments.
