Phase 3 Trials
Anti-tumor antibiotic
Telisotuzumab Vedotin vs. Docetaxel for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Recruiting2 awardsPhase 3
Irvine, California
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.
Chemotherapy
Adagrasib + Pembrolizumab for Lung Cancer
Recruiting1 awardPhase 2 & 3
Rancho Mirage, California
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.
Alkylating agents
Pembrolizumab + Chemotherapy for Lung Cancer
Recruiting2 awardsPhase 3
San Diego, California
This trial is studying whether giving first-line pembrolizumab followed by pemetrexed and carboplatin with or without pembrolizumab works better in treating patients with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer.
Chemotherapy
Pembrolizumab + Chemotherapy ± Canakinumab for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Recruiting1 awardPhase 3
Long Beach, California
This trial is testing a new cancer treatment that combines two drugs, one that helps the chemotherapy work better and one that fights the cancer cells directly. The goal is to see if this new treatment is more effective and has fewer side effects than current treatments.

Monoclonal Antibodies
Amivantamab for Lung Cancer
Recruiting1 awardPhase 1
La Jolla, California
This trial is testing a new drug called Amivantamab alone and with other treatments in patients with advanced lung cancer that hasn't responded to other treatments. The goal is to see if these combinations are safe and effective. The drugs work by stopping cancer cells from growing. Amivantamab targets a rare lung cancer mutation that has been difficult to treat with existing medications.

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.
