PD-L1 antibody drug study for advanced lung and head/neck cancers
This Phase 1 trial tests a new experimental drug (PF-08046054/SGN-PDL1V) in people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatment or can’t use it. It is designed to see how the drug works and how safe it is, with a focus on tumors that have PD-L1 seen on prior lab testing.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06634823RecruitingEarly Phase 1

Charleston, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07512687Recruiting
Portable Oxygen During Daily Activity for Lung Disease
This study tests whether using portable oxygen during everyday activities helps people with certain lung diseases (like pulmonary fibrosis or COPD) who only experience low oxygen levels when moving around.

Buffalo, New YorkAges 18–85 - NCT03889743RecruitingPhase 4
Steroid treatment to help prevent asthma after a first wheezing illness
This trial studies whether an early steroid treatment can lower the chance that children will go on to develop asthma after their first severe “wheezing” episode caused by a rhinovirus (a common cold virus). If you qualify, the goal is to prevent future asthma rather than just treat the current episode.
TurkuAges 3 months–1.9 years - NCT07704567Recruiting
Using MoblO2 to maintain oxygen levels during activity
This study tests a device called MoblO2 to help people with COPD or interstitial lung disease keep their oxygen levels up during activity. If you normally use oxygen when you walk or exert yourself, this might help you stay active more safely.

Study of PF-08046876 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new medicine, PF-08046876, for people with advanced cancers of the bladder, lung, head and neck, esophagus, or pancreas. It aims to see if the drug is safe and works against these cancers.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07124000Recruiting
T-DXd for advanced HER2-positive solid tumors
This trial is for people with advanced HER2-positive solid tumors (cancers that cannot be removed by surgery or have spread). It tests the drug T-DXd (also called Enhertu) when your doctor has already decided it's the right treatment for you and you have no other good options.

Study of adagrasib plus pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy for KRAS G12C lung cancer
This trial tests if adding the targeted drug adagrasib to standard immunotherapy and chemotherapy helps people with a specific KRAS G12C mutation in non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer that has spread. It is for people who have not had previous treatment for advanced disease.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07227298RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of new drug combo for advanced lung cancer
This study tests a new combination of cancer drugs (PF-08634404 with other anticancer agents) for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer who have not yet received any treatment for their advanced disease. It aims to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.
Fayetteville, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT04925375RecruitingPhase 2
Abatacept for children with CVID and lung scarring
This Phase 2 trial tests abatacept to improve a specific type of lung disease in children with common variable immunodeficiency (CVID). It aims to slow or reduce ongoing lung changes seen on CT scans while they continue their usual immune “replacement” therapy.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 4 years+ - NCT05098210RecruitingPhase 1
Personalized vaccine made from your tumor’s new immune targets
This Phase 1 study tests a customized vaccine made from “neo-antigens,” which are new targets found in your tumor. It aims to help your immune system fight certain advanced cancers that have not responded well to prior treatment.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT06179160RecruitingPhase 1
Study of INCB161734 for advanced solid tumors with KRAS G12D mutation
This trial tests a new drug called INCB161734 for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific genetic change called KRAS G12D. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and helps shrink tumors.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06862206Recruiting
Benralizumab study for severe asthma in China
This study looks at people in China with severe eosinophilic asthma who are starting a new medicine called benralizumab. It will collect information about their symptoms and quality of life to understand who benefits most.
AnhuiAges Any age - NCT06935825Recruiting
Breathing muscles in severe lung disease
This study looks at how the breathing muscles work in people with very advanced COPD who are waiting for a lung transplant. It aims to understand the problems these muscles face and how that affects patients.
AmsterdamAges Any age - NCT04491292Recruiting
COVID-19 impact survey for MD Anderson workers
This study asks MD Anderson employees about how the COVID-19 pandemic affected their mental and emotional well-being. Your answers may help the team understand workplace needs during and after major public health events.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06758401RecruitingPhase 3
Sigvotatug vedotin plus pembrolizumab for advanced lung cancer with high PD-L1
This trial tests a new combination of two study medicines for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has high levels of PD-L1 protein. The goal is to see if adding sigvotatug vedotin to pembrolizumab works better than pembrolizumab alone.
Fullerton, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07714330Recruiting
Using sound cues to treat positional sleep apnea
This study tests a device that plays sound cues to help you stay off your back while sleeping, which may reduce sleep apnea events. It's for people whose sleep apnea is worse when sleeping on their back.
Burlingame, CaliforniaAges 18–75 - NCT07716280Recruiting
