First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether adding pirfenidone to the immunotherapy drug atezolizumab can help shrink tumors and prevent treatment resistance in people with advanced or returning non-small cell lung cancer. About 25 adults with stage IV or recurrent NSCLC who have already tried at least one prior treatment will receive the combination. The main goals are to check safety and see how well the drugs control the cancer.
