Oloromosib with Immunotherapy as First Treatment for KRAS G12C Lung Cancer
This trial tests a new targeted pill (olomorasib) combined with immunotherapy (pembrolizumab) and possibly chemotherapy for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a KRAS G12C mutation and has not been treated before.
Huntsville, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06121505RecruitingPhase 2
Low-dose radiation plus immunotherapy for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests whether adding low-dose radiation and a type of targeted radiation (SBRT) to a combination of immunotherapy (sintilimab) and chemotherapy works better than immunotherapy and chemotherapy alone for people with advanced squamous cell lung cancer.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06122064Recruiting
Tool to help lung cancer patients decide on adjuvant treatment
This study is testing a tool to help you and your doctor make decisions together about whether to have extra treatment after surgery for non-small cell lung cancer (stage 1B or higher). It only includes patients at Mayo Clinic in Rochester who are eligible for that extra treatment.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT05292521Recruiting
Quality-of-life program to help early lung cancer decisions
