- NCT06616584RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Cemiplimab plus standard care for advanced lung cancer after prior treatments

It is designed for those who responded to their first immunotherapy for at least 12 weeks before the cancer started growing again.
Kansas City, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT05642572RecruitingPhase 2
Test drug combinations for EGFR- and MET-changed lung cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests combinations of targeted medicines to treat advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has changes in both EGFR and MET genes. It is for people whose cancer continued to grow even after treatment with osimertinib, the most recent therapy.
Kansas City, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT06031688RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted treatment for lung cancer with a MET gene change
This trial tests a targeted drug for advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific genetic change called MET exon 14 skipping. It aims to see if the drug can shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth, and may help people who have or haven't had prior treatment.
Kansas City, MissouriAges 18 minutes+ - NCT06500481RecruitingPhase 3
Proton vs standard radiation for cancer spread to brain/spine lining
This trial compares a newer type of radiation (proton therapy) to standard radiation for people whose breast or lung cancer has spread to the lining of the brain and spinal cord. It aims to see if proton therapy can better control the disease while causing fewer side effects.

Chemo plus immunotherapy vs immunotherapy alone for older adults with advanced lung cancer
This trial compares chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy to immunotherapy alone for adults 70 and older with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific protein level (PD-L1 1-49%). It aims to find which treatment works better for this group.
Kansas City, MissouriAges 70 years+ - NCT04467723RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Atezolizumab plus pirfenidone for advanced lung cancer
This Phase 1/2 trial tests whether combining atezolizumab and pirfenidone can help people with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after prior treatment. It is aimed at patients whose cancer has certain genetic markers ruled out and who can safely take study medicines and follow frequent visits.

Tumor samples grown in dishes to predict immunotherapy response
This study takes small biopsy samples of your lung cancer and grows them in a dish to predict how well immunotherapy will work. If you qualify, you’ll receive standard immunotherapy (anti-PD-1/L1, with or without anti-CTLA-4), and the results from the dish-grown tumors will be compared to your real-world response.
Kansas City, KansasAges 18–110 - NCT05361174RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing an IOV-4001 infusion for advanced melanoma or lung cancer
This trial studies how well and how safely an infusion called IOV-4001 works in adults with advanced melanoma or non-small-cell lung cancer that cannot be removed with surgery. It also aims to see what side effects occur and whether the treatment can help control the cancer.
Westwood, KansasAges 18–70 - NCT03191149RecruitingPhase 2
Osimertinib for lung cancer with an EGFR exon 20 change
This Phase 2 study tests osimertinib (a targeted lung cancer pill) in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose tumors have an EGFR exon 20 insertion. It aims to see how well osimertinib works for this specific EGFR mutation and how safe it is.
Saint Joseph, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT04181060RecruitingPhase 3
Osimertinib alone or with bevacizumab for EGFR-mutant lung cancer
This Phase 3 trial tests whether starting osimertinib with or without bevacizumab helps people with advanced EGFR-mutant lung cancer live longer and control the cancer better. Your EGFR mutation test result and past treatments are key to whether you can join.
