Stage IV lung cancer trial using pembrolizumab with or without chemotherapy
This Phase 1/2 study tests pembrolizumab (an immune-based cancer treatment) either alone or with chemotherapy in people newly diagnosed with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It looks at how well the treatments work and whether they are safe, especially in people who haven’t had treatment yet for metastatic disease.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT04165798Recruiting
Pembrolizumab with or without chemotherapy for stage IV lung cancer
This trial tests whether pembrolizumab alone, or pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy, can treat stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. It may help shrink tumors and improve outcomes by boosting the immune system, with or without added chemotherapy.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT04198766RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
New OX40 immunotherapy for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new immunotherapy drug (INBRX-106) alone or with Keytruda (pembrolizumab) for adults with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if the drug can help the immune system fight cancer.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03467360RecruitingPhase 1
Adding an acetazolamide-type drug to lung cancer radiation and drugs
This Phase 1 trial tests whether blocking an enzyme (with an acetazolamide-like medicine) can be safely combined with standard treatment for small cell lung cancer that has not spread. The goal is to see if the treatment can be given safely and to learn early signs of benefit.
NiceAges 18 years+ - NCT04119024RecruitingPhase 1
Gene-edited immune cells for advanced melanoma or solid tumors
This Phase 1 study tests a gene-modified immune cell treatment for advanced cancers that don’t have standard curative options. It may help by attacking cancer cells that show a specific marker called IL13Rα2 after patients receive “conditioning” chemotherapy to prepare the immune system.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18–75 - NCT03866382RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus a targeted drug for rare genitourinary tumors
This Phase 2 study tests whether nivolumab and ipilimumab (immunotherapy drugs) plus cabozantinib (a targeted anti-cancer drug) can shrink or control rare cancers of the urinary/reproductive system that have spread. It may help by boosting the immune system and blocking cancer growth signals at the same time.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT03740256RecruitingPhase 1
HER2-targeted oncolytic virus plus custom immune cells for solid cancers
This Phase 1 study tests a treatment plan that combines a virus designed to attack cancer with your own custom immune cells that target HER2. It aims to shrink advanced HER2-positive solid tumors (and make future options safer/more effective).
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03706027Recruiting
Compare two radiation timing plans for early lung cancer
This trial tests whether two different schedules (timing) of radiation have different side effects in people with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer. It may help reduce or better understand treatment toxicity while still treating the cancer.
Rochester, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT03412877RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized immune-cell therapy for advanced metastatic cancers
This trial tests a personalized cell therapy made from your own immune cells, changed to recognize “neoantigens” on cancer cells. It’s designed for people with metastatic (advanced spread) solid cancers or certain other cancers who have tried standard treatments but cancer is still growing.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–72 - NCT03199651Recruiting
Study for people with stage IV lung cancer
This study focuses on improving outcomes for people with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer by gathering health, treatment, and lifestyle information. It may help researchers understand what supports survival and care planning, especially for people who are current smokers or recent quitters.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT02133196RecruitingPhase 2
T-cell treatment for lung cancer that has spread
This Phase 2 study tests a T-cell–based immunotherapy for people with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer that has grown despite prior treatment. It may help your immune system recognize and fight your cancer using cells made from your tumor.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–72 - NCT00568490Recruiting
Finding blood markers that show low oxygen in tumors
This study looks for substances in blood that may reflect how “low-oxygen” a tumor is. If you have head and neck cancer or non-small cell lung cancer, it may help researchers understand tumor oxygen levels and improve future care.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05060796RecruitingEarly Phase 1
CAR-T treatment for advanced lung cancer with EGFR and CXCL13 signs
This early-phase study tests a custom CAR-T cell therapy made to target EGFR in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. You may be eligible if your tumor has specific lab markers (EGFR and CXCL13) and if your overall heart, liver, kidney, and blood counts can safely support treatment.
GuangzhouAges 18–75 - NCT07665190RecruitingPhase 2
New drug combination before surgery for advanced throat cancer
This trial tests a new combination of a targeted therapy (EGFR-ADC) and an immunotherapy drug before surgery to shrink and control locally advanced throat cancer. It may help make surgery more effective and reduce the chance of recurrence.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07646106RecruitingPhase 1
Testing THE-0504 in Advanced Solid Tumors
This Phase 1 trial tests a new drug called THE-0504 in patients with advanced solid tumors (like lung, colon, pancreas, stomach, or breast cancer) that have not responded to standard treatments. The study aims to find the right dose and understand how well and safely the drug works.
Rome, LazioAges 18 years+ - NCT07637474Recruiting
Immune System and Lung Cancer Response to Immunotherapy
This study looks at how your immune system works in non-small cell lung cancer and whether it predicts how well you'll respond to a type of immunotherapy called anti-PD-1/PD-L1 drugs. Researchers will study your tumor tissue to understand why some patients benefit more than others.
Rome, RomeAges 18 years+ - NCT06632262RecruitingPhase 2
Testing new drugs for cancers with FGFR gene changes
This trial tests two new drugs, ABSK061 and ABSK043, in people whose cancers have specific changes in the FGFR2 or FGFR3 genes. It may be an option if your cancer has stopped responding to standard treatments or if no standard treatment is available.
