Huntsville, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07084610RecruitingPhase 2
Metabolic markers predict response to immunotherapy before lung cancer surgery
This trial tests whether certain markers in your blood or tissue can predict how well immunotherapy works before surgery for early-stage lung cancer. It aims to find out who benefits most from this treatment.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for small cell lung cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,521 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.
