Donor Treg cells plus IL-2 for stubborn chronic GVHD
This trial tests whether injecting special immune cells (Treg cells) from your transplant donor, along with a protein called IL-2, can help control chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) that hasn't responded well to steroids. It is for people who have had a stem cell transplant and still have moderate to severe cGVHD.

This trial tests a new drug called TNG462, alone or combined with other drugs, for people with advanced pancreatic or non-small cell lung cancer whose tumors have a specific genetic change (loss of MTAP and a RAS mutation). It aims to see if TNG462 is safe and works better than current treatments.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06923098Recruiting
PET/CT vs. CT for lung biopsy
This study compares two ways to guide a needle biopsy in people with suspected lung cancer: using a CT scan alone or using a combined PET/CT scan. The goal is to see which method better helps doctors get a clear diagnosis with fewer needle passes.
Bhubaneswar, OdishaAges 18 years+ - NCT06923618Recruiting
Lung Cancer and Aging in Older Adults
This trial looks at aging-related changes in older adults (70+) with early-stage lung cancer who are planning to have surgery. The goal is to better understand how these changes might affect recovery and outcomes, which could help improve care for future patients.

Trial of a new drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug (GRWD5769) that may help your immune system fight cancer. It is for people with advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments, including certain types of cervical, liver, and other cancers.
AdelaideAges 18 years+ - NCT06924398RecruitingPhase 2
Post-surgery targeted therapy for remaining lung nodules in EGFR-mutant NSCLC
This trial tests whether a targeted therapy pill (EGFR-TKI) can control small spots in the other lung after surgery for early-stage lung cancer. It's for people whose cancer has a specific EGFR gene change and who still have suspicious spots in the opposite lung after one side is removed.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06925295RecruitingPhase 2
Xenon MRI to guide radiation for lung cancer
This trial tests whether a special MRI that uses xenon gas can help doctors better plan radiation therapy for lung cancer. You may join if you are scheduled for stereotactic body radiation therapy for your lung cancer.
