Recruiting studies
- NCT05521789RecruitingPhase 4
Erector spinae block for thoracic surgery pain relief
This trial tests a specific pain-block injection (called an erector spinae block) to help with pain during thoracic surgery that removes part of the lung. You might benefit from better pain control and possibly fewer pain medicines, depending on what the study finds.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18–90 - NCT05092373RecruitingPhase 1
Tumor treating device plus targeted or immune drugs for advanced cancers
This Phase 1 study tests whether a tumor treating fields device works better when added to standard cancer drugs. It may help people with advanced solid tumors in the chest or belly, especially when standard treatment didn’t work or can’t be tolerated.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06988943Recruiting
Finding lung cancer early with CT screening in Guangzhou communities
This study is testing a way to find lung cancer early by offering free CT scans to people in certain communities in Guangzhou. It helps catch cancer before symptoms start.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 40–74 - NCT06915727RecruitingPhase 3
Testing an imaging drug to see tumors in children having surgery
This study tests a special imaging drug called pafolacianine (Cytalux) that helps doctors see tumors more clearly during surgery. It is for children and teens who have a solid tumor in the body and are already scheduled for tumor removal or biopsy.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 6 months–17 years - NCT07479199Recruiting
Radiofrequency ablation and radiation for painful spine tumors
This trial tests a treatment that uses heat (radiofrequency ablation) and radiation to relieve pain from tumors in the spine. It may help if you have cancer that has spread to your upper or lower back and you have moderate to severe pain.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07242547RecruitingPhase 2
Tarlatamab maintenance for limited-stage small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a new immunotherapy medicine called tarlatamab given as maintenance therapy after initial treatment for limited-stage small cell lung cancer. It aims to keep the cancer from coming back.
Albacete, AlbaceteAges 18 years+ - NCT06917573RecruitingPhase 2
Cemiplimab for advanced lung cancer with high PD-L1
This trial tests a drug called cemiplimab (an immunotherapy) for people with advanced lung cancer that has high PD-L1 levels. It uses a simple blood test to track how well the treatment is working.
Alicante, AlicanteAges 18 years+ - NCT07685938RecruitingPhase 2
Medicines to prevent heart damage from radiation
This trial tests whether common heart medicines (statins or ACE-inhibitors) can protect the heart during cancer radiation therapy. It is for adults who are about to start chest radiation and have not taken these drugs before.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06758700RecruitingPhase 2
Teniposide for advanced small cell lung cancer with c-Myc
This trial tests a chemotherapy drug called teniposide for people with a specific type of advanced small cell lung cancer that has gotten worse after prior treatment. The goal is to see if teniposide helps shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07205536RecruitingPhase 2
Preventing low white blood cells during chemo-radiation for chest cancers
This trial tests if a study drug (Thiopegfilgrastim) can help prevent a dangerous drop in white blood cells (bone marrow suppression) in people with esophageal or lung cancer who are getting chemo and radiation. It may reduce your risk of infection during treatment.
Nantong, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT07632664Recruiting
New treatment model for older lung cancer surgery patients
This study tests a new approach to help older adults (65+) with early-stage lung cancer who are candidates for surgery. The goal is to improve outcomes by using a special assessment to understand each patient's overall health before and after the operation.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 65 years+ - NCT07517393Recruiting
Creating a Digital Lung Model Using AI and CT Scans
This study collects information from your chest CT scans and medical history to build an artificial intelligence model of how your lungs work. This 'digital twin' may help doctors better understand and predict lung health in the future.
Peschiera del Garda, VeronaAges 18 years+ - NCT07407933RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
YL201 with other cancer drugs for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, YL201, combined with other cancer treatments for people with a certain type of advanced lung cancer (extensive-stage small cell lung cancer). It may help shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06104774Recruiting
Family tai chi after lung surgery for better breathing
This study tests if doing tai chi with your family can help your lungs work better and improve your mood after a thoracoscopic lung surgery. You would practice tai chi exercises and the researchers will check your breathing and mental health.
Taichung, North Dist.Ages 18 years+ - NCT07159659Recruiting
Medium chain triglyceride diet after lung surgery
This trial tests whether a special diet with medium chain triglycerides (a type of fat) after lung surgery can help you go home sooner. If you are having a lobectomy (removal of a lung lobe) and are generally healthy, you may be able to join.
ShatinAges 18–80 - NCT03715517Recruiting
Spinal anesthesia to improve recovery after liver surgery
This trial studies whether using spinal/epidural anesthesia during liver tumor removal surgery can help people recover better and with less pain. It compares this approach to standard general anesthesia care to see if recovery is smoother.
Winnipeg, ManitobaAges 18 years+ - NCT05693363Recruiting
Scan lung tissue with a PET-CT during thoracic surgery
This study tests whether a special imaging scan using a radioactive sugar (18F-FDG) can help doctors better examine lung cancer tissue during thoracic surgery. You may be offered the scan around the time of your operation to help researchers learn how well it works.
GhentAges 18 years+ - NCT06411795RecruitingPhase 2
Comparing two pain relief methods after Whipple surgery
This study compares two ways to manage pain after Whipple surgery: a long-lasting numbing injection near the belly muscles (rectus sheath block) versus an epidural (a tube placed in your back). The goal is to see which method provides better pain relief and recovery.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT05990946Recruiting
Smartphone symptom check-ins to improve recovery exercises after lung surgery
This trial tests whether using a smartphone app to report symptoms can help patients stick to their recovery exercises after minimally invasive lung cancer surgery. If you are having surgery for lung cancer, this study may help you recover better at home.
Zhongshan, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06953193Recruiting
Comparing anesthesia types for pancreas surgery
This study compares two types of anesthesia for people having pancreatoduodenectomy surgery. It tests whether adding an epidural to general anesthesia can help prevent low blood pressure during the operation.
Mexico City, Mexico CityAges 18 years+ - NCT05600569Recruiting
Thoracic surgery registry study in Spain
This is a registry (a secure log) that collects information about patients who undergo thoracic (chest) surgery. It helps researchers understand what surgeries are being done and may improve planning and care over time.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for thoracic neoplasms?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 21 recruiting thoracic neoplasms 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 thoracic neoplasms 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 thoracic neoplasms 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.
