Stockbridge, GeorgiaAges 18–80 - NCT07623356RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of AK138D1 alone or with ivonescimab for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests an experimental drug called AK138D1, either by itself or combined with another drug (ivonescimab), for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has spread. It aims to see if these treatments are safe and effective.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07624383Recruiting
New topical treatment for nonerosive acid reflux disease
This study tests a new topical treatment for people with chronic heartburn and acid regurgitation who don't have erosions (damage) in their esophagus. The treatment is applied directly to the affected area and may help relieve symptoms without taking daily pills.
Warsaw, Masovian VoivodeshipAges 18 years+ - NCT07624318Recruiting
TROP2 Lung Cancer Tissue Study
This research study analyzes lung cancer tissue samples to understand a protein called TROP2 and how it might help guide treatment decisions. You may qualify if you have non-squamous lung cancer and haven't received prior systemic chemotherapy or immunotherapy for advanced disease.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07623369RecruitingPhase 1
First-in-Human Study of HH160 for Advanced Solid Tumors
This is an early-stage trial testing a new drug called HH160 in patients with advanced cancer (solid tumors). Researchers want to find the right dose and learn how well it works and what side effects it causes.
Waratah, New South WalesAges 18–75 - NCT07625644RecruitingPhase 3
New immunotherapy combination for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug called BL-M14D1 combined with atezolizumab (an immunotherapy) against standard chemotherapy for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer, a serious type of lung cancer that has spread. The goal is to see if this combination helps patients live longer and control their cancer better.
