This early-phase trial tests whether combining two immunotherapy drugs (ipilimumab and nivolumab) with radiation therapy is safe and effective for people with stage II or III non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. The study includes 21 participants and aims to see if this approach can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth better than standard chemotherapy plus radiation. The main focus is on side effects and safety.
