First seen Oct 31, 2025 · Last updated Apr 28, 2026 · Updated 20 times

Summary

This early-phase study tested two immunotherapy drugs (ipilimumab and nivolumab) combined with radiation in 21 people with stage II or III non-small cell lung cancer that could not be removed by surgery. The goal was to see if the combination is safe and helps shrink tumors. Participants received the drugs and radiation, and researchers monitored side effects and cancer response. This approach aims to control the disease rather than cure it, as ongoing management is typically needed.
