Phase 3 Trials
Chemotherapy
Chemoradiation + Pembrolizumab/Olaparib for Small Cell Lung Cancer
Recruiting1 awardPhase 3
Chicago, Illinois
This trial will compare overall survival and progression free survival of two groups of patients with advanced solid tumors - those who receive concurrent chemoradiation therapy with pembrolizumab followed by pembrolizumab plus olaparib, and those who receive concurrent chemoradiation therapy alone.
Small Molecule Drug
Adagrasib + Pembrolizumab for Lung Cancer
Recruiting1 awardPhase 2 & 3
Chicago, Illinois
This trial tests two drugs, MRTX849 and pembrolizumab, in patients with advanced lung cancer who have a specific genetic mutation. MRTX849 targets the mutation to stop cancer growth, while pembrolizumab boosts the immune system to fight the cancer. The study aims to see how well these treatments work alone and together.
Chemotherapy
Radiation + Immunotherapy for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Recruiting1 awardPhase 2 & 3
Chicago, Illinois
This trial is testing the addition of radiation therapy to the usual immunotherapy (with or without chemotherapy) treatment for patients with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (advanced) or has spread to other places in the body (metastatic) and who are also negative for a molecular marker called PD-L1.
Monoclonal Antibodies
Telisotuzumab Vedotin vs. Docetaxel for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Recruiting2 awardsPhase 3
Elmhurst, Illinois
This trial is testing a new drug called telisotuzumab vedotin to see if it can treat a specific type of lung cancer better than an existing drug. The study focuses on adults whose lung cancer has not responded to previous treatments. The new drug targets and kills cancer cells by attaching to a specific protein on their surface.
Radiation Therapy
Stereotactic Radiosurgery vs Whole-Brain Radiotherapy for Brain Metastasis from Lung Cancer
Recruiting2 awardsPhase 3
Chicago, Illinois
This trial compares the effect of stereotactic radiosurgery to standard of care memantine and whole brain radiation therapy that avoids the hippocampus for the treatment of small cell lung cancer that has spread to the brain.
Trials With No Placebo
Monoclonal Antibodies
Brentuximab Vedotin + Pembrolizumab for Advanced Cancers
Recruiting1 awardPhase 2
Chicago, Illinois
This trial will find out whether brentuximab vedotin and pembrolizumab work together to treat different types of cancer, including metastatic cancer that has progressed after PD-1 inhibitor treatment. The study will also find out what side effects occur.
Small Molecule
PC14586 for Solid Tumors
Recruiting1 awardPhase 1 & 2
Chicago, Illinois
This trial is testing a new oral drug, PC14586 (rezatapopt), alone and with pembrolizumab, in patients with advanced cancers that have a specific genetic mutation. The drug aims to fix a mutated protein to help control cancer growth. The study will determine the best dose and evaluate the drug's safety and effectiveness.
Checkpoint Inhibitor
Pembrolizumab + Chemotherapy for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Recruiting1 awardPhase 2
Chicago, Illinois
This trial is testing pembrolizumab with or without chemotherapy to treat patients with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer that has come back and spread to other places in the body.
GMCI + Immunotherapy for Lung Cancer
Recruiting1 awardPhase 2
Chicago, Illinois
This trial is testing whether adding a new cancer treatment, Gene Mediated Cytotoxic Immunotherapy (GMCIâ„¢), to the standard of care improves response rates and clinical outcomes for patients with stage III/IV non-small cell lung cancer who have stopped responding to their first line of immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need insurance to participate in a trial?
Almost all clinical trials will cover the cost of the 'trial drug' — so no insurance is required for this. For trials where this trial drug is given alongside an already-approved medication, there may be a cost (which your insurance would normally cover).
Is there any support for travel costs?
Many of the teams running clinical trials will cover the cost of transportation to-and-from their care center.
Will I know what medication I am taking?
This depends on the specific study. If you're worried about receiving a placebo, you can actively filter out these trials using our search.
How long do clinical trials last?
Some trials will only require a single visit, while others will continue until your disease returns. It's fairly common for a trial to last somewhere between 1 and 6 months.
Do you verify all the trials on your website?
All of the trials listed on Power have been formally registered with the US Food and Drug Administration. Beyond this, some trials on Power have been formally 'verified' if the team behind the trial has completed an additional level of verification with our team.
How quickly will I hear back from a clinical trial?
Sadly, this response time can take anywhere from 6 hours to 2 weeks. We're working hard to speed up how quickly you hear back — in general, verified trials respond to patients within a few days.
