New hope for HIV patients with lung cancer: immunotherapy combo trial opens
NCT ID NCT04499053
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether adding two immunotherapy drugs (durvalumab and tremelimumab) to standard chemotherapy is safe and effective for people with HIV who have advanced non-small cell lung cancer. About 18 participants will receive the treatment, and researchers will monitor side effects, tumor response, and HIV viral load. The goal is to find a better way to control the cancer while managing HIV.
