Summary

This study tested a combination of two immunotherapy drugs (durvalumab and tremelimumab) plus a targeted therapy (selumetinib) in 40 people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that had returned. The goal was to find the safest dose and see if the combination could shrink tumors or slow cancer growth. While the approach aims to control the disease, it is not a cure, and patients may need ongoing treatment.
