This trial tests a single dose of a special dye (LS301-IT) that helps surgeons see lung cancer cells more clearly during surgery. It aims to make lung cancer removal more precise and complete.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07278479RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of a targeted radiation therapy for small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug called MP0712 that delivers radiation directly to cancer cells that have a marker called DLL3. It is for people with small cell lung cancer or other solid tumors that express DLL3, whose cancer has come back after prior treatments.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07277413RecruitingPhase 1
Study of IDE892 for advanced solid tumors with MTAP deletion
This study tests a new drug called IDE892, alone or in combination, for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific genetic change (MTAP deletion). The goal is to see if the drug is safe and whether it can shrink tumors.
Goodyear, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07269782RecruitingPhase 2
Pre-surgery treatment for stage II-III lung cancer
This study tests two investigational drugs (HLX43 and serplulimab) given before surgery to people with stage II to III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The goal is to see if these drugs can shrink the tumor and make it easier to remove completely during surgery.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT03978377Recruiting
Checks heart and lung effects after chest radiation
This study looks at how chest radiation treatment affects the heart and lungs in people with certain lung or esophagus cancers. It may help doctors better predict and prevent these side effects during curative (aimed at cure) radiotherapy.
LeuvenAges 18 years+ - NCT05473156RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of AP203 for advanced solid tumors that grew despite treatment
This early-phase study tests AP203 (an investigational treatment) to see if it is safe and to look for signs it can shrink or control certain advanced cancers. The study includes a dose-finding part for many solid tumors, and a second part focused on specific lung and head/neck cancers that previously received PD-1/PD-L1 therapy.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07261631RecruitingPhase 1
A study of a new radioactive drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new radioactive drug called [177Lu]Lu-DFC413 for people with certain advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments. The drug is designed to target cancer cells with a specific marker seen on a special scan.
Princeton, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07264816RecruitingPhase 2
Study of BL-M07D1 and Pembrolizumab for HER2+ Lung Cancer
This study tests a new drug combination, BL-M07D1 plus pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy), for people with a certain type of advanced lung cancer that has high levels of HER2 protein. The goal is to see if the combination is safe and effective for people who have not been treated with HER2-targeting drugs before.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT06896890RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Inhaled cisplatin for stage IV lung cancer
This trial tests a new way to give the chemotherapy drug cisplatin—as a dry powder you inhale—for people with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer who have not yet started treatment. The goal is to see if this inhaled form is safe and effective when added to standard immunotherapy or chemotherapy.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT07267000Recruiting
Exercise and immune response in lung cancer
This study tests whether a structured exercise program can boost the immune system in people with lung cancer. If you are generally active and able to ride a stationary bike, this trial could help understand how exercise affects your body's defenses.
GrazAges 18–75 - NCT07264647RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo-immunotherapy before surgery for stage III lung cancer
This trial tests combining chemotherapy with immunotherapy before surgery for people with stage III non-small cell lung cancer that has a PD-L1 level of 1% or higher. The goal is to see if this approach can improve outcomes.
Rome, Roma (RM)Ages 18–99 - NCT04852588Recruiting
Sample chest lymph nodes during treatment for advanced lung cancer
This study checks lymph nodes in the chest (using a camera-guided test) in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer who are getting curative-intent radiation. The trial may help doctors better confirm how far the cancer has spread and guide the best radiation treatment plan.
London, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06899789Recruiting
Long-term follow-up of colitis from checkpoint inhibitors
This study follows people who developed colitis (inflammation in the colon) after receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors for cancer. Researchers want to learn about long-term effects and outcomes.

Studying resistance to antibody-drug conjugates in advanced cancer
This study is for people with advanced breast, bladder, lung, or stomach cancer who are about to start treatment with a type of targeted therapy called an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC). The trial will collect tumor samples and blood to understand how cancers become resistant to these drugs and to find better ways to predict treatment success.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for small cell lung cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,490 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.
