Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07744334Recruiting
Exercise program for quarry workers with breathing problems
This study tests whether a program of aerobic and resistance exercises can help male quarry workers who have breathing problems caused by dust. The exercises may improve their lung function and overall fitness.
Minya, Minya GovernorateAges 30–40 - NCT07030075Recruiting
Flu and respiratory infection study in Lusaka
This study looks at flu-like symptoms and other respiratory infections in adults in Lusaka, Zambia. It aims to understand how these infections affect people with and without HIV, and may help improve care.
Lusaka, Lusaka ProvinceAges 18 years+ - NCT06029933Recruiting
Comparing two flu vaccines for older adults
This study compares two types of flu shots for people 65 and older to see which works better. If you are a Kaiser Permanente member and get your flu shot at a Kaiser facility, this trial looks at your health records to see how well the vaccine protected you.
Oakland, CaliforniaAges 65 years+ - NCT07111520RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Combination treatment for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests two investigational drugs, BNT326 and BNT327, together in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has spread or can't be cured with local treatment. The goal is to see if the combination is safe and might help shrink tumors.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06660355RecruitingPhase 2
Comparing two medicines for chronic graft-versus-host disease
This trial compares two treatments, ruxolitinib and prednisone, as the first therapy for chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD), a condition where donor cells attack your body after a stem cell transplant. The goal is to see which medicine works better and has fewer side effects.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07748325RecruitingPhase 2
Checking if immunotherapy after surgery helps prevent lung cancer return
This trial is for people with non-small cell lung cancer who have already had immunotherapy and chemotherapy before surgery, followed by complete removal of the tumor. It tests whether continuing immunotherapy after surgery (adjuvant treatment) can lower the risk of cancer coming back compared to just watching and waiting.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–75 - NCT04999761RecruitingPhase 1
Study testing new drug combinations for advanced cancers
This study tests new drug combinations for people with various advanced cancers that have progressed after standard treatment, or in some cases, as a first treatment. It aims to see if these combinations are safe and effective. The study is divided into groups based on cancer type and treatment history, so not everyone will qualify for every group.
AichiAges 18 years+ - NCT06465069RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a new drug for advanced bladder and other solid tumors
This study tests a new drug (LY4052031) for people with several types of advanced solid tumors, especially bladder cancer. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective when given alone or after other treatments have stopped working.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07412041Recruiting
Exercise program for stage II-III lung cancer before surgery
This study tests a personalized exercise program for people with stage II or III non-small cell lung cancer who are about to start cancer treatment before surgery. The goal is to see if exercise can help prepare your body for treatment and recovery.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07277413RecruitingPhase 1
Study of IDE892 for advanced solid tumors with MTAP deletion
This study tests a new drug called IDE892, alone or in combination, for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific genetic change (MTAP deletion). The goal is to see if the drug is safe and whether it can shrink tumors.
Santa Rosa, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06473961RecruitingPhase 1
GC101 cell therapy for advanced non-small cell lung cancer
This trial tests an experimental cell therapy (GC101) for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. It uses your own tumor-fighting immune cells, called TILs, grown in a lab and given back to you. The goal is to see if it can shrink tumors or slow the disease.
ShanghaiAges 18–70 - NCT07156227RecruitingPhase 1

Targeted radiation and osimertinib for lung cancer with EGFR mutation
This trial tests a new approach for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific EGFR mutation (Ex19del or L858R) and has started to grow again after at least six months on osimertinib. It combines two types of focused radiation with continued osimertinib to treat only the progressing spots while keeping the rest of the disease under control.
