First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 27 times

Summary

This study tests whether a year of inhaled budesonide (a common asthma medication) can prevent lung inflammation from coming back in cancer patients who had a serious immune reaction to immunotherapy. About 94 adults with solid tumors who recently recovered from checkpoint inhibitor pneumonitis will receive either inhaled budesonide plus standard care or standard care alone. The goal is to reduce the need for strong oral or IV steroids and improve quality of life.
