Small Cell Lung Cancer clinical trials in Maryland
We’re tracking 128 recruiting small cell lung cancer studies with a site in Maryland — including Early Phase 1, Phase 1, Phase 1/Phase 2 and Phase 2 studies, each written for real people, not researchers.
Recruiting studies in Maryland
- NCT02984761Recruiting
Surgery vs focused radiation for early lung cancer
This trial compares two ways to treat early-stage lung cancer: surgery or a precise type of radiation called stereotactic radiotherapy. It aims to find out which approach works best for people whose cancer is small and has not spread.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06885697RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T cells targeting mesothelin for solid tumors
This study tests a new treatment called CAR T cells that target a protein called mesothelin found on certain cancer cells. The CAR T cells are made from your own immune cells and may help shrink tumors that have not responded to other therapies.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT06364423RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
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.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT07428707RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Study of pirtobrutinib in first-line CLL/SLL
This study tests a new oral medication called pirtobrutinib in people with previously untreated CLL or SLL. Researchers will collect blood and lymph node samples to understand how the immune system responds to the drug.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT05977907RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy before surgery for head and neck cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests pembrolizumab and an investigational drug (IO102-103) given before surgery for certain non-bulky head and neck squamous cell cancers. The goal is to shrink the cancer and improve chances of cure by treating it before the operation.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT03190941RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
T-cell therapy for HLA-A11:01 and KRAS G12V tumors
This trial tests a custom immune-cell treatment made from your blood that targets the KRAS G12V change in certain cancers. It is for people with advanced cancer who have already tried standard treatments, and it may help your immune system recognize and attack tumor cells.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–72 - NCT03816345RecruitingPhase 1
Nivolumab for advanced cancer with autoimmune conditions
This Phase 1 study tests nivolumab, an immunotherapy “anti-cancer accelerator,” in people with advanced cancer who also have an autoimmune disorder. It aims to see if nivolumab can be given safely and whether it may help shrink or control cancer.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05592626RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Immunotherapy trial for solid tumors using a T-cell antibody fusion
This early-stage trial studies STAR0602, an immune system drug that targets specific T-cells to fight advanced solid tumors. It may help people whose cancers have limited treatment options, especially if their tumor shows certain biomarkers.

What taking part in a 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.

Common questions
- Are there small cell lung cancer clinical trials in Maryland?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 128 recruiting small cell lung cancer studies with a site in Maryland, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a small cell lung cancer study in Maryland?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Maryland to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Maryland, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a small cell lung cancer trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
Not the right time?
New small cell lung cancer studies open in Maryland regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
