ShanghaiAges 18–80 - NCT05963867RecruitingPhase 1
First-dose study of a cancer drug taken up by tumors
This Phase 1 study tests how BI 764532 moves into and through tumors in people with small-cell lung cancer or neuroendocrine cancer. It’s likely aimed at understanding the drug’s behavior in your body and tumor, especially if you’ve already tried standard treatments.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT05967689RecruitingPhase 2
Zipalertinib for lung cancer with EGFR exon 20 mutations
This Phase 2 trial tests zipalertinib (a targeted pill) in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has specific EGFR mutations, especially “exon 20 insertions.” It may help shrink tumors or slow cancer growth, including in some people with brain metastases.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05924841RecruitingPhase 2
Study drugs for advanced small cell lung cancer after prior treatments
This Phase 2 trial tests how well two study drugs (and a combination of them) work in people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. It’s mainly for patients whose cancer has come back or who couldn’t tolerate at least some standard treatments, and it aims to see if treatment can shrink tumors and be tolerable.
Changchun, JilinAges 18–75 - NCT05935384Recruiting
Blood tests to track response to cancer therapy
This study follows how cancer responds to standard (usual) treatment by using blood samples and de-identified health data. It may help researchers understand whether “liquid biopsy” blood testing can reflect how well therapy is working.
Skokie, IllinoisAges 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.
Santa Barbara, CaliforniaAges 18–100 - NCT05910827RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of a HER3 antibody with cetuximab and possibly docetaxel
This Phase 1/2 trial tests whether an antibody that targets HER3 (with cetuximab, and possibly docetaxel) can help treat advanced squamous cell cancers that have already been treated or cannot use standard options. It mainly looks at safety first, and also whether the treatment can shrink tumors.
Sydney, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT05937906RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Chemo and immunotherapy plus short targeted drug for lung cancer
This Phase 1/2 trial tests how safe and how well a combination of chemo and immunotherapy works when followed by a short course of a targeted “MEK” inhibitor as first treatment for metastatic lung adenocarcinoma with PD-L1 below 50%. It may help some people control cancer better, while also providing more information about side effects and the best way to use these medicines together.
Dijon, BurgundyAges 18 years+ - NCT05933239RecruitingPhase 2
PET-like scan using a special protein in lung cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether a new imaging medicine (a radiopharmaceutical) can highlight immune cells called macrophages in people with non-small cell lung cancer. It may help doctors better “see” and evaluate tumor tissue before a surgical biopsy or removal.
Jette, Brussels CapitalAges 18 years+ - NCT04900935Recruiting
Survivorship and palliative care planning for metastatic lung cancer
This study tests a more patient-centered way to plan survivorship care and comfort (palliative) care for people with metastatic lung cancer. It may help you get support that matches your goals, especially alongside your current targeted treatment.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05768178RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Vemurafenib plus cobimetinib for BRAF-mutant cancers
This trial tests whether combining two targeted cancer medicines—vemurafenib and cobimetinib—can treat adults whose tumors have a specific “BRAF V600” mutation. You may be screened with blood tests and a tissue biopsy before starting treatment.
BelfastAges 18 years+ - NCT05889247Recruiting
Blood test guided monitoring for advanced lung cancer treatment
This trial checks whether a blood test that looks for cancer DNA can help guide and monitor treatment in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It may help your team spot treatment response or changes earlier, so care can be adjusted appropriately.
Hillerød, Region HAges Any age - NCT05903092RecruitingPhase 2
Monalizumab plus durvalumab for small cell lung cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding monalizumab to durvalumab (two immune-targeting medicines) can improve outcomes in people with small cell lung cancer. You may be able to join if you have certain stage of small cell lung cancer and have not had the specific prior treatments the study allows.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18 years+ - NCT05886439RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug plus PD-1 or PD-L1 for lung cancer
This Phase 1/2 trial tests a new treatment called LK101 combined with a PD-1 or PD-L1 antibody for advanced lung cancer. It may help shrink tumors and improve control of the disease, especially after prior anti–PD-1/PD-L1 treatment has stopped working.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05882058RecruitingPhase 2
Dose test of a DLL3 cancer drug for neuroendocrine tumors
This Phase 2 study tests how different doses of BI 764532 affect people with small cell lung cancer or certain other neuroendocrine cancers. It may help shrink tumors and improve symptoms after standard treatments have stopped working.
Mobile, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05885698Recruiting
Study of care patterns in newly diagnosed lung cancer
This observational study follows adults with newly diagnosed non-small cell lung cancer to understand what treatments are used and how patients are doing. It may help doctors better understand how care decisions affect outcomes, and it does not require the study to give an experimental treatment.
Daphne, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05856981RecruitingPhase 1
Testing ADU-1805 for advanced solid tumors safety
This early study tests whether ADU-1805 is safe in people with advanced solid tumors and checks how the body processes the drug. Depending on your cancer type, it may also be looking specifically at certain cancers that have not yet received PD-(L)1 immunotherapy.
Detroit, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT05877599RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a new treatment for advanced cancers with a specific gene change
This trial tests a new type of therapy (NT-175) for people with certain advanced cancers that have a specific genetic change. It might help if your tumor has the TP53 R175H mutation and you have the HLA-A*02:01 immune marker.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05864794Recruiting
Screening brain MRI in advanced lung cancer patients
This trial looks at whether doing an MRI scan of the brain for people with stage IV lung cancer helps in their care. The goal is to find brain issues early (if present) so treatment decisions can be made sooner.
Groningen, Provincie GroningenAges 18 years+ - NCT05852990RecruitingPhase 3
Gut help to prevent diarrhea from EGFR-targeted lung cancer drugs
This Phase 3 trial tests whether adding glutamine plus L. reuteri can help prevent severe diarrhea caused by EGFR-targeted treatments in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. If it works, it could make treatment easier to tolerate and help you stay on the planned therapy.
Mexico City, Mexico CityAges 18–80 - NCT05815173RecruitingPhase 1
Ladarixin plus sotorasib for KRAS-mutated lung cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests whether ladarixin combined with sotorasib can help people with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has a KRAS G12C mutation. It’s mainly testing safety and how well the treatments work after the cancer has progressed despite prior anti–PD-1 treatment.
Garden City, New YorkAges 18–100 - NCT05830058RecruitingPhase 2
PET-guided focused radiation for limited worsening lung, melanoma, kidney cancer
