Using blood and tumor data to predict cancer treatment response
This study looks at “multiomics” information (many types of biological data, like blood and lab markers) to predict how well cancer treatments may work for you. It may help doctors choose better treatments in the future based on what your body is doing during therapy.

Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18–65 - NCT05745961Recruiting
Measuring a lung protein in pulmonary artery hypertension
This study measures how much of a specific lung protein (TSPO) is present in people with pulmonary artery hypertension. The results may help researchers better understand the disease and guide future treatments.
LondonAges 25–75 - NCT05746039RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing semaglutide for advanced lung disease
This study checks whether semaglutide is safe and feasible for people with advanced lung diseases and higher body weight. It may help by testing a structured treatment approach, but it includes several health and safety limits.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18–80 - NCT05746325Recruiting
Tumor-pulse device for spinal cancer fluid spread
This trial tests whether Tumor Treating Fields (a non-surgical device that delivers treatment signals to cancer cells through the scalp/skin) can help people whose breast or lung cancer has spread into the fluid around the spine and brain. It focuses on people who have cancer cells found in spinal fluid and can safely use the device most of the day.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05748093RecruitingPhase 4
Boost osimertinib levels using cobicistat to improve value
This study tests whether adding cobicistat can increase and stabilize the effect level of osimertinib while keeping treatment cost-effective. You would take osimertinib 80 mg daily, with blood tests to see how your body processes the drug.
Maastricht, LimburgAges 18 years+ - NCT05751018RecruitingPhase 2
Pyrotinib for first treatment of HER2-mutated lung cancer
This Phase 2 trial studies pyrotinib as a first (initial) anti-cancer treatment for advanced lung cancer that has specific HER2 changes. It aims to shrink tumors and control the cancer, especially in people whose test results show HER2 insertion mutation, point mutation, or amplification.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05751798RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Test drug OSE-279 for advanced lung cancer that has no key mutations
This Phase 1/2 study tests how well and how safely OSE-279 works in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who cannot be cured with surgery or radiation. It also looks at the right dose and how it may help, especially if the tumor has high PD-L1.
AnderlechtAges 18 years+ - NCT05751863Recruiting
Sedation-first vs usual care in ventilated trauma patients
This study compares how pain medicine and calming medicine are started in critically injured (trauma) adults who are on a breathing machine. It aims to see whether a specific “analgesia-first” approach can improve comfort and support breathing weaning.
Long Beach, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05752552RecruitingPhase 1
Safety study of a MET-targeting pill for advanced lung cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests DO-2 to see how safe it is and how the body absorbs it (pharmacokinetics) in people with advanced or metastatic lung cancer. It is for tumors that have a specific MET exon 14 “skipping” mutation and for whom standard treatments are no longer an option.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT05753722RecruitingPhase 1
First trial for PRTH-101 alone or with pembrolizumab
This early study tests PRTH-101, given by itself or with pembrolizumab, in people with advanced cancers that have spread or cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to see if it is safe and how it affects the cancer.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05754203Recruiting
Radiation plus immunotherapy for advanced lung cancer
This trial studies whether a more intensive form of targeted radiation, combined with immunotherapy (immune checkpoint inhibitors), can work better and be safe for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. You may be considered if your tumor is limited in size and you’re able to receive both treatments.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05756894Recruiting
Stimulation therapy to improve breathing after spinal cord injury
This trial studies a neurostimulation approach to help breathing problems after a spinal cord injury. You may be able to join if you have a certain type and level of spinal cord injury and breathing weakness, and you can safely attend study visits with caregiver support.
