Immunonutrition to improve immunotherapy in metastatic lung cancer
This trial studies whether adding special nutrition (oral immunonutrition supplements) can help immunotherapy work better in people with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer. Participants receive immunotherapy, with or without chemotherapy, and must be able to take oral supplements.
PaviaAges 18 years+ - NCT05398094RecruitingPhase 2
Sotorasib for KRAS-mutant Stage III lung cancer without chemo-radiation
This Phase 2 study tests sotorasib (also called AMG510) in people with Stage III lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery and that has a specific KRAS mutation (p.G12C). You may be able to join if you cannot safely receive chemo-radiotherapy at the same time, and the study checks whether sotorasib can help shrink or control the cancer.
Alicante, AlicanteAges 18 years+ - NCT05401110RecruitingPhase 1
Osimertinib plus antibody treatment for EGFR-mutated lung cancer
This Phase 1 study tests the combination of osimertinib (a targeted lung cancer pill) with an antibody called carotuximab to treat advanced EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer. It aims to see whether adding the antibody can help when the cancer has grown despite prior EGFR-targeted therapy.
Beverly Hills, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05403554RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new mesothelin-targeting drug for certain solid cancers
This Phase 1 study tests NI-1801, a drug designed to attach to a target on cancer cells (mesothelin). It may be given alone or with pembrolizumab to help shrink tumors in advanced cancers that have enough mesothelin on their cells.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT05419076RecruitingPhase 2
SRS radiation for small cell lung cancer with brain spread
This Phase 2 trial tests a type of focused radiation (stereotactic radiosurgery, or SRS) for people with small cell lung cancer that has spread to the brain. It looks at whether this approach can treat brain metastases when the cancer has limited to a certain number of spots.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05430009RecruitingPhase 1
Radiation to liver plus immunotherapy for metastatic lung cancer
This Phase 1 study tests whether targeted radiation to liver tumors combined with immunotherapy can control metastatic non-small cell lung cancer. It aims to find a safe and effective treatment approach for people whose cancer has spread to the liver.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for small cell lung cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,518 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.
