- NCT05358548RecruitingPhase 2
Alternating treatment for advanced lung and head-neck cancers
This Phase 2 study tests an approach that alternates treatments for advanced lung cancer or recurrent/metastatic head and neck squamous cell cancer. It may help by improving how well the cancer responds while managing side effects differently than standard back-to-back therapy.
Elizabeth, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05359991Recruiting
Exercise study in children and teens with lung or blood conditions
This study tests how safe and effective a structured exercise program is for children and teens. It also compares results between children with sickle cell disease, cystic fibrosis, and healthy peers (and some teens after COVID-19 infection).
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 10–17 - NCT05360914Recruiting
Hospital care at home for older adults with acute illnesses
This trial tests whether it is safe and helpful to manage certain sudden (acute) infections and medical problems with hospital-level care delivered at home or in a nursing home. It may help you avoid unnecessary hospital stays while still getting close medical follow-up.
SilkeborgAges 65 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 - NCT05363280RecruitingPhase 2
Second-treatment study for lung or kidney cancer after initial therapy
This Phase 2 study tests a new treatment for people with small cell lung cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, or kidney cancer after they have finished their first main treatment. It may help shrink tumors or control the cancer further.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05363319Recruiting
Cemiplimab study in adults with advanced lung cancer
This observational study looks at how well cemiplimab works and how safe it is for adults with advanced non-small cell lung cancer in everyday care in Europe. It mainly follows patients already prescribed cemiplimab, and asks them to complete questionnaires.
Klagenfurt, CarinthiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05364632Recruiting
Exercise training to improve activity in people with asthma
This trial compares an aerobic exercise program with a behavioral program to help increase physical activity in people with asthma. It may help you build safer activity habits, especially if your asthma symptoms are not well controlled.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 18–65 - NCT05364957Recruiting
Gastric balloon plus asthma care for uncontrolled asthma and obesity
This study tests whether placing a soft “balloon” inside the stomach (intragastric balloon) can help people who have uncontrolled asthma and obesity. It also checks whether the balloon is safe and can improve asthma control when standard inhaler treatment is already in use.
Toulouse, OccitanieAges 18–65 - NCT05365009Recruiting
Autoimmune lung scarring registry for adults with recent diagnosis
This registry collects health and breathing test information from adults with autoimmune-related lung scarring (interstitial lung disease) diagnosed recently. It helps researchers better understand who has this condition and how it changes over time.
Buenos AiresAges 18 years+ - NCT05366478RecruitingPhase 1
LM103 for advanced solid tumors using donated immune cells
This Phase 1 study tests LM103 to treat advanced cancers that are not responding to standard treatment. It also looks at whether enough tumor tissue can be collected for immune cell testing, and focuses on safety at first.
TianjinAges 18 years+ - NCT05366881Recruiting
Blood test study to spot early cancer signal and cancer leftovers
This observational study checks whether a blood test (a “cfDNA” test) can detect early signs of cancer or small amounts of cancer left after treatment. It may help doctors use a simple blood sample to improve cancer detection and follow-up.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 40 years+ - NCT05368467Recruiting
Registry study for pulmonary hypertension patients
This is a long-term study that enrolls people who have been diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension (high blood pressure in the lung arteries). It collects medical information over time to better understand the condition and what to expect.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges Any age - NCT05372263Recruiting
Tracking safety of pulmonary hypertension medicines by computer follow-up
This study checks how safe pulmonary hypertension–targeted medicines (and some calcium-blocking medicines) are over time. It uses a computer system to follow you after diagnosis, looking at outcomes and side effects.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 3 months–85 years - NCT05375591Recruiting
AI study to sort lung nodules after past cancer treatment
This study uses computer tools (AI) and detailed scan patterns to better classify new lung nodules in people who previously had curative-intent cancer treatment. It may help doctors decide whether a nodule is likely benign or cancer, using your CT scan and related medical history.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT05375266Recruiting
Study of immune signals in head and neck cancer
This study looks at “immune signals” in blood, saliva, and stool to learn more about head and neck cancers (especially squamous cell carcinoma). It may help researchers find patterns that improve understanding of disease or how treatment should be guided.
Erlangen, BavariaAges 18 years+ - NCT05377658RecruitingPhase 2
AK104 with chemo before and after surgery for lung cancer
This trial studies AK104 along with chemotherapy given before surgery and after surgery for people with resectable (operable) stage II to IIIA non-small cell lung cancer. It aims to improve treatment effectiveness by shrinking the tumor before surgery and helping prevent it from coming back afterward.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18–75 - NCT05378139Recruiting
At-home and hospital wireless monitoring for worsening health
This trial tests a system that continuously checks vital signs (like heart rate and breathing) using wireless sensors and sends automatic alerts if you seem to be getting worse. It may help clinicians spot problems sooner whether you’re being monitored at home or around a major surgery hospital stay.
Copenhagen, CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT05378334Recruiting
Test herbal treatment for lung cancer spread to bone
This trial studies whether the herbal medicine HGXJT can improve outcomes and safety for people with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to the bones. It is designed for a specific lung cancer type (EGFR and ALK wild type) and people who have not had certain immune treatments before.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05378633Recruiting
CyberKnife treatment for multiple brain metastases
This trial looks at how well (and how much) CyberKnife radiation works for people with multiple brain metastases. It may help your care team understand the best way to treat several brain spots safely.
HeidelbergAges 18 years+ - NCT05379556Recruiting
Study for long COVID sexual and reproductive symptoms
