Weight Loss Medicine for Sleep Apnea on CPAP
This study tests a new injectable medicine (NNC0487-0111) to help people lose weight and improve obstructive sleep apnea (a breathing condition during sleep). You must already be using a CPAP machine (positive airway pressure device) for your sleep apnea.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07651761Enrolling by invitation

This study tests whether special training helps primary care doctors have better conversations with patients about flu and COVID-19 vaccines. You may be eligible if you're a patient who visits a participating clinic during the 2026–2027 vaccine season.
Worcester, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07486817RecruitingPhase 2
Testing zongertinib with chemo and immunotherapy for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug called zongertinib combined with chemotherapy, with or without pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy), for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific change in the HER2 gene. The goal is to see how safe and well-tolerated the combination is.
St Leonards, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT07486947Recruiting
Studying nutrition and metabolism in lung cancer

Treating lung tumors with pulsed electric field before surgery
This study tests a new device that uses brief electrical pulses (pulsed electric field or PEF) to treat lung tumors before they are surgically removed. The goal is to see if this approach can be safely added to standard lung cancer surgery.
ShatinAges 18 years+ - NCT07487883Recruiting
PET scan for lung cancer using a special tracer
This trial tests a new type of PET scan that uses a special tracer to find lung tumors. The goal is to see if this scan can better detect cancer cells, which may help doctors plan the best treatment for you.
