Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06287775RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new drug combo for small cell lung cancer
This trial tests adding a new drug, iadademstat, to standard immunotherapy drugs (atezolizumab or durvalumab) for people with small cell lung cancer that responded to initial treatment. The goal is to see if this combination works better at preventing cancer from returning.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06422806RecruitingPhase 3
Immunotherapy plus chemo for aggressive sarcoma
This trial compares a combination of immunotherapy (pembrolizumab) plus chemotherapy (doxorubicin) versus chemotherapy alone for people with aggressive, poorly differentiated sarcomas that have spread or cannot be removed. The goal is to see if adding immunotherapy helps shrink tumors or slow their growth better than chemotherapy alone.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06616584RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Cemiplimab plus standard care for advanced lung cancer after prior treatments
This trial tests whether adding the immunotherapy drug cemiplimab to standard treatment can help people with advanced lung cancer that has already progressed after both platinum chemo and a prior immunotherapy. It is designed for those who responded to their first immunotherapy for at least 12 weeks before the cancer started growing again.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06495125RecruitingPhase 2
Study of three drugs for a type of advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of two targeted drugs (defactinib and avutometinib) plus an immunotherapy (nivolumab) for people with advanced lung adenocarcinoma that has a specific gene mutation (LKB1) and has stopped responding to prior immunotherapy and chemotherapy. The goal is to see if this new combination can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05642572RecruitingPhase 2
Test drug combinations for EGFR- and MET-changed lung cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests combinations of targeted medicines to treat advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has changes in both EGFR and MET genes. It is for people whose cancer continued to grow even after treatment with osimertinib, the most recent therapy.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06073431Recruiting
Study on weight loss types in advanced cancer
This study looks at different types of weight loss (cachexia) in people with advanced lung, pancreatic, or colorectal cancer. Researchers want to find patterns to better understand and treat it. You can join even if you haven't lost weight yet.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06980038RecruitingPhase 2
Testing two immunotherapy drugs before surgery for advanced head and neck cancer
This trial tests whether adding a second immunotherapy drug (CDX-1140) to the standard immunotherapy cemiplimab before surgery is better than cemiplimab alone for people with stage III-IV head and neck cancer that can be removed with surgery.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04762199RecruitingPhase 1
MRX-2843 with osimertinib for EGFR-mutant lung cancer
This Phase 1 study tests whether combining MRX-2843 with osimertinib can help control advanced lung cancer that has specific EGFR gene changes. It is designed to find the safest dose and check early signs of tumor response.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07195734RecruitingPhase 2
Adding chemo or immunotherapy before surgery for advanced head and neck cancer
This trial tests whether giving chemotherapy or chemotherapy plus immunotherapy before surgery can improve outcomes for people with advanced head and neck cancer that has come back or not gone away after prior treatment.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04181060RecruitingPhase 3
Osimertinib alone or with bevacizumab for EGFR-mutant lung cancer
This Phase 3 trial tests whether starting osimertinib with or without bevacizumab helps people with advanced EGFR-mutant lung cancer live longer and control the cancer better. Your EGFR mutation test result and past treatments are key to whether you can join.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05244239RecruitingPhase 1
Radiation plus lurbinectedin for advanced small cell lung cancer
This trial studies whether adding palliative (comfort-focused) radiation to the medicine lurbinectedin can better control extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. It may help reduce problems from tumors in places like bones and organs.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04804644RecruitingPhase 3
Memory-sparing radiation for brain metastases in small cell lung cancer
This study tests whether focusing high-dose radiation only on brain tumor spots, while avoiding the hippocampus (a brain area important for memory), helps protect memory and thinking compared with standard whole-brain radiation. It’s for people with small cell lung cancer that has spread to the brain.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05896839RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Immunotherapy with prednisone and sirolimus for transplant skin cancer
This early-phase study tests whether adding immunotherapy (nivolumab and ipilimumab) to prednisone and sirolimus can control advanced skin cancers in people with kidney transplants. It aims to see how well the treatment works and how safe it is for transplant recipients.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07288034RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy biomarkers for advanced lung cancer
This study looks at blood and tissue biomarkers to predict how well immunotherapy (with or without chemotherapy) works for advanced non-small cell lung cancer. It also helps decide the best second treatment if the first one stops working.
Newnan, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06096844RecruitingPhase 3
Chemo plus immunotherapy vs immunotherapy alone for older adults with advanced lung cancer
This trial compares chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy to immunotherapy alone for adults 70 and older with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific protein level (PD-L1 1-49%). It aims to find which treatment works better for this group.
Newnan, GeorgiaAges 70 years+ - NCT06031688RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted treatment for lung cancer with a MET gene change
