Abington, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05525338RecruitingPhase 4
Test standard vs adjusted alectinib dose using blood levels
This trial compares the usual dose of alectinib with a modified dose chosen by checking alectinib blood levels. It aims to see whether adjusting the dose based on blood testing can work as well (and possibly be better tolerated) for people with ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer.
Villejuif, Val-de-MarneAges 18 years+ - NCT05570825RecruitingPhase 2
Study drug SX-682 with pembrolizumab for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests SX-682 plus pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy) to treat metastatic or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It aims to see how well the combination works and whether it can shrink or control the cancer in people whose tumors have enough PD-L1.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT05579366RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug for advanced ovarian and other solid cancers
This Phase 1/2 trial studies Rinatabart Sesutecan to treat advanced cancers, with special focus on certain ovarian cancer types. It’s meant for people whose cancer has come back or has not responded to prior treatments.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05620342RecruitingEarly Phase 1
CAR T-cell therapy for GD2-positive lung cancer
This early-phase study tests a customized immune-cell treatment (CAR T cells) that targets a protein called GD2 on lung cancer cells. It may help people with certain lung cancers that did not respond to platinum chemotherapy and who have also had treatment that blocks PD-1/PD-L1.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05623956Recruiting
Proteomics study in newly diagnosed small cell lung cancer
This study uses a lab test called “proteomics” to learn more about newly diagnosed small cell lung cancer (SCLC). It may help researchers understand the disease better and improve future treatment decisions, while participants also receive standard chemotherapy.
Aalborg, Region North JutlandAges 18 years+ - NCT05624996RecruitingPhase 3
Targeted high-dose radiation added to standard lung cancer treatment
