Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06222489RecruitingPhase 2
HER3 PET scan for advanced EGFR-mutant lung cancer
This study uses a special PET/CT scan to measure a protein called HER3 in your tumors. The scan uses a radioactive version of the drug patritumab deruxtecan (HER3-DXd). This test may help doctors understand how much HER3 is in your cancer and decide if HER3-targeted therapy could work for you.

Durvalumab with radiation therapy for limited-spread small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of durvalumab (immunotherapy) plus radiation and chemotherapy for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer that has only a few distant spots. The goal is to see if this approach helps control the cancer better.

Study of a new drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, CTS2190, for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to or cannot tolerate standard treatments. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and effective.
Luoyang, HenanAges 18 years+ - NCT06224634Recruiting
Testing a new drug for airway problems
This trial tests how a drug called anti-IL-17 affects your airways. If you are already planning to take this drug, researchers want to see if it helps with breathing and airway resistance.
Hvidovre, Capital RegionAges 18 years+ - NCT06225258RecruitingPhase 2
Hops compound for septic shock treatment
This trial tests whether a natural compound from hops (xanthohumol) can help people with severe septic shock. It's given early, within the first day, alongside standard intensive care.
Lublin, Lublin VoivodeshipAges 18 years+ - NCT06225427RecruitingPhase 1
Gilteritinib for advanced ALK-positive lung cancer
This trial tests a drug called gilteritinib for people with a specific genetic type of lung cancer (ALK-positive) that has spread and has been treated before. You may be eligible if you have already tried at least one targeted therapy, and your cancer is still growing.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06225804RecruitingPhase 1
Study of ABSK112 for advanced non-small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug called ABSK112 for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer, especially those whose cancer has a specific change in the EGFR gene (exon 20 insertion). The main goals are to see if it's safe and how the body handles it.
Beverly Hills, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06226909Recruiting
Ultrasound-guided biopsy for lung lining disease
This study tests whether a special ultrasound technique (shear-wave elastography) can help guide biopsies to get better samples from the lining around your lungs. It may be an option if you have a build-up of fluid or thickening in that area.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06227468Recruiting
Mapping immune system genes in Greek adults
This study maps immune system genes (HLA) in Greek adults. It uses a simple cheek swab sample to collect data, with no experimental treatment.
Chaïdári, AtticaAges 18 years+ - NCT06227572Recruiting
Thinking and memory after sleep apnea treatment in Native Americans
This study looks at whether using a PAP (breathing) machine helps thinking and memory in Native American adults with sleep apnea. If you are 50 or older and just starting PAP therapy, researchers want to see how it affects your brain health.
Eagle Butte, South DakotaAges 40 years+ - NCT06227728Recruiting
Predicting immunotherapy response in advanced cancer
This study uses blood and tumor samples to find markers that predict whether immunotherapy will work for people with stage IV cancer. The goal is to better match treatments to patients.
Ho Chi Minh City, Hồ Chí MinhAges 18–80 - NCT06228066RecruitingPhase 2
Lurbinectedin with or without avelumab for small cell bladder cancer
This clinical trial tests a drug called lurbinectedin, given alone or with avelumab (an immunotherapy), for people with small cell bladder cancer or similar high-grade neuroendocrine tumors that have spread. The goal is to see if combining these drugs helps shrink or control the cancer better.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT06228482RecruitingPhase 1
Targeted radioactive therapy for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new targeted radioactive drug that seeks out a specific marker on lung cancer cells. It first uses a low-dose imaging scan to see if the cancer cells have this marker, then gives a higher-dose treatment to destroy those cells.
