First seen Feb 01, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 10 times

Summary

This study tests whether adding pirfenidone to the immunotherapy drug atezolizumab can improve tumor shrinkage and reduce treatment resistance in people with stage 4 or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer. About 25 adults who have already tried at least one prior treatment will receive the combination. The main goal is to check safety and side effects, while also measuring how well the cancer responds and how long people live.
