TCR T cells for KRAS-mutated cancers
This trial tests a new type of immune cell therapy (TCR T cells) designed to target a specific KRAS mutation (G12V) in certain advanced cancers. It may be an option for people with pancreatic, bile duct, colorectal, or lung cancer who have already tried standard treatments.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07594522RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Ivonescimab with Radiation for Early Lung Cancer
This trial tests a new immunotherapy drug called ivonescimab combined with focused radiation therapy (SBRT) for patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer who cannot or prefer not to have surgery. The goal is to see if this combination can effectively treat the cancer while being tolerable.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07586826RecruitingPhase 2
Romiplostim N01 plus ATRA for low platelets after cancer treatment
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (romiplostim N01 and ATRA) to help raise platelet counts in people whose platelets dropped after chemotherapy for gynecologic, breast, or lung cancer—even though their cancer is now gone. Low platelets can cause bleeding problems, so this treatment aims to help your body make more platelets.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT07578571RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a New Cancer Treatment Called IM-1617
This is an early-stage study testing a new drug (IM-1617) for advanced solid cancers that have not responded to standard treatments. The drug combines an antibody with a cancer-killing agent and may help people whose cancer has progressed despite prior therapy.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT07583550RecruitingPhase 2
Low-dose radiation followed by immunotherapy for extensive small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of low-dose radiation to the chest, immunotherapy (adebrelimab), and chemotherapy for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. The goal is to see if this approach can help control the cancer better than standard treatments and potentially improve outcomes.
Jiangmen, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07583511RecruitingPhase 2
New drug combination for advanced lung cancer
This study tests whether a combination of three drugs—teniposide, cisplatin, and serplulimab—can effectively treat extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (a fast-growing type of lung cancer that has spread). Serplulimab is an immunotherapy drug designed to help your immune system fight cancer.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT07579221RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Navlimetostat and Pumitamig for Advanced Lung Cancer
This study tests a combination of two experimental drugs (navlimetostat and pumitamig) for advanced non-small cell lung cancer in patients whose tumors have a specific genetic change called MTAP loss. The drugs are designed to attack cancer cells in a new way and may help patients whose cancer has stopped responding to previous treatments.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for small cell lung cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,489 recruiting small cell lung cancer studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a small cell lung cancer trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a small cell lung cancer trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
