The goal is to shrink the tumor and increase the chance the cancer can be removed with better results.
Changsha, HunanAges 18 years+ - NCT05361174RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing an IOV-4001 infusion for advanced melanoma or lung cancer
This trial studies how well and how safely an infusion called IOV-4001 works in adults with advanced melanoma or non-small-cell lung cancer that cannot be removed with surgery. It also aims to see what side effects occur and whether the treatment can help control the cancer.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–70 - NCT05398094RecruitingPhase 2
Sotorasib for KRAS-mutant Stage III lung cancer without chemo-radiation
This Phase 2 study tests sotorasib (also called AMG510) in people with Stage III lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery and that has a specific KRAS mutation (p.G12C). You may be able to join if you cannot safely receive chemo-radiotherapy at the same time, and the study checks whether sotorasib can help shrink or control the cancer.
Alicante, AlicanteAges 18 years+ - NCT05557552Recruiting
Chemo and immunotherapy plus chest radiation for stage III lung cancer
This trial studies a treatment plan that combines chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and radiation to the chest for people with unresectable stage III non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It may help by delivering anti-cancer drugs while also shrinking tumors with targeted radiation, especially for people who are not able to have the standard “chemo and radiation at the same time.”
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT05624996RecruitingPhase 3
Targeted high-dose radiation added to standard lung cancer treatment
This trial tests whether adding high-dose, targeted radiation to the usual treatment helps people with locally advanced, non-operable lung cancer live longer or better control the cancer. It may help shrink tumors in the chest and improve outcomes when surgery can’t be done.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05696782RecruitingPhase 2
Durvalumab after chemoradiation for stage III lung cancer
This trial tests giving durvalumab (an immune therapy) soon after standard chemotherapy and radiation for stage II–III non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to see if this “quick start” approach improves outcomes compared with waiting longer to begin durvalumab.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05758116RecruitingPhase 2
Tislelizumab after radiation to stop lung cancer from growing
This Phase 2 trial studies tislelizumab (an immune therapy) given after you finish radiation or combined chemotherapy-radiation for stage III non-small cell lung cancer. It aims to keep the cancer from coming back or growing by helping your immune system stay active.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT05940532RecruitingPhase 2
Sutimab plus chemotherapy for advanced lung cancer needing radiation
This trial tests a cancer-fighting antibody (sugemalimab) added to standard chemotherapy for stage III lung cancer that can’t be removed by surgery but may be treated with radiation. It aims to improve control of your cancer while checking safety and side effects.
ChangshaAges 18–75 - NCT05979818RecruitingPhase 1
Propranolol plus immunotherapy and chemo for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests adding a beta-blocker (propranolol) to a combination of immunotherapy (sintilimab) and standard chemotherapy for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that hasn't been treated before. The goal is to see if this new triple treatment helps shrink tumors better than chemo-immunotherapy alone.
Changsha, HunanAges 18–75 - NCT06041776RecruitingPhase 3
Befotertinib after surgery for early-stage lung cancer with EGFR mutation
This trial tests if a targeted therapy pill (befotertinib) can lower the chance of cancer coming back after surgery for non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific EGFR mutation. You may be eligible if your tumor was completely removed and you have stage IB to IIIB disease.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT06102057RecruitingPhase 2
PET-guided small volume chemoradiation with immunotherapy for lung cancer
This trial tests a new combination of chemotherapy, radiation, and immunotherapy (durvalumab) for people with stage III non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be removed with surgery. The goal is to see if giving a smaller, more focused radiation dose can be just as effective with fewer side effects.
DresdenAges 18 years+ - NCT06123754RecruitingPhase 3
Envafolimab plus chemo for stage III NSCLC before surgery
This trial tests a new immunotherapy (Envafolimab) combined with standard chemotherapy before and after surgery for stage III non-small cell lung cancer that can be removed. The goal is to see if adding Envafolimab helps shrink the tumor and improve outcomes compared to chemotherapy alone.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06218914RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a new treatment for KRAS G12D cancers
This trial tests a new type of cell therapy (called TCR-T) that targets a specific genetic change (KRAS G12D) in advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments. It may be an option if your cancer has this mutation and you have a specific tissue type (HLA).
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06265285RecruitingPhase 2
