Implantable radiation sheet for early-stage lung cancer
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This Phase 2 study tests whether a permanently implanted, low-dose radiation “sheet” can be used to treat certain early-stage lung cancers. It may help shrink or control tumors while delivering radiation directly at the cancer site.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You agree to join the study and sign the consent form
- You have suspected or confirmed non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in the upper part of one lung
- Your lung problem looks like a cancer on imaging (CT scan)
- Your tumor or mass is 7 cm or smaller on CT
- Your cancer is stage I or stage II
- You cannot be pregnant or breastfeeding, and if you could become pregnant, you must use reliable birth control

This Phase 2 trial tests cadonilimab given before surgery for resectable stage II to IIIA squamous cell lung cancer. It aims to shrink or control the cancer before an operation and see how well that approach works and is tolerated.
This trial tests a new immunotherapy drug called ivonescimab combined with focused radiation therapy (SBRT) for patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer who cannot or prefer not to have surgery. The goal is to see if this combination can effectively treat the cancer while being tolerable.
This early safety study tests a combination of focused radiation and a targeted anti-microbial (antibiotic/antifungal/antiviral/anti-parasite) plan for certain lung cancer that is starting to progress in a few spots. It aims to see whether this approach is safe and helps control the small areas of progressing cancer after prior treatment.
This trial tests a combination of radiation therapy before surgery, followed by the immunotherapy drug tislelizumab and the targeted therapy drug anlotinib after surgery, for people with stage II to IIIA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The goal is to see if this approach can improve outcomes for patients whose tumors can be removed surgically.
This trial tests a newer, more precise way of giving radiation for lung cancer tumors that are near the center of the chest. The goal is to see if using a smaller treatment area can reduce side effects while still killing the cancer.
This trial tests a device that sends low-energy electrical fields (called Tumor Treating Fields) to the lung tumor before surgery. The goal is to see if it can help shrink the tumor and improve surgical outcomes.
