ViennaAges 18–120 - NCT06532149Recruiting
Sexual health and erectile function in men with lung cancer
This study looks at how lung cancer and its treatments affect men's sexual health, including erectile function and hormone levels. If you are a man with advanced lung cancer and are sexually active, researchers want to learn about your experiences and test results.
RomeAges 18–75 - NCT06523673RecruitingPhase 3
SBRT for lung cancer with limited new growth
This trial tests whether a precise type of radiation called SBRT can control lung cancer that has started to grow in only a few new spots while you are on standard treatments. It may help you delay changing to a different treatment.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06788366Recruiting
AI tool to predict outcomes in metastatic lung cancer
This trial is testing whether artificial intelligence can help predict how well people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) respond to immunotherapy or chemo-immunotherapy. If you have stage IV NSCLC and have started this treatment, your data may help build a better prediction tool.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT07548060RecruitingPhase 2
New drug combination for advanced lung cancer after prior treatments
This trial tests two newer drugs (sacituzumab tirumotecan and furmonertinib) together for patients with advanced non-squamous lung cancer whose tumors have specific genetic mutations and have stopped responding to earlier EGFR-targeted drugs and chemotherapy. The goal is to find out if this combination can help patients whose cancer has progressed.
