Summary

This study tests an experimental drug, atamparib, in 178 adults with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (a common type of lung cancer) that has not responded to standard treatments. The trial has two parts: first, finding the safest dose, then checking how well it works. Participants take atamparib by mouth twice daily.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
atamparib (an experimental drug taken by mouth)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward a new treatment option for people with advanced lung cancer whose disease has worsened after standard therapy.
What could go wrong
This is an early-phase trial (Phase Ib/II) with a small number of participants, so the drug may not prove effective or safe enough for wider use. Side effects are unknown at this stage.
