Antiviral drug joins fight against aggressive lung cancer

NCT ID NCT04696575

Summary

This study is testing whether adding an oral antiviral drug called lamivudine to standard chemotherapy and immunotherapy can better control extensive stage small cell lung cancer. The goal is to see if lamivudine can help prevent the cancer from becoming resistant to treatment, which is a common problem. Researchers will measure how long patients live without their cancer getting worse and monitor side effects.
