Targeted drug trial for rare lung cancer halted early

NCT ID NCT04926831

Summary

This study aimed to test if a drug called capmatinib, given before and after surgery, could help people with certain types of non-small cell lung cancer that have specific genetic changes. The goal was to see if the drug could shrink tumors before surgery and prevent the cancer from coming back afterward. The trial was stopped early because it was very difficult to find enough eligible participants.
