Blood test guides fight against lung cancer return

NCT ID NCT04367311

Summary

This study tests whether adding an immunotherapy drug (atezolizumab) to standard chemotherapy after lung cancer surgery can better prevent the cancer from coming back. It involves 100 adults who have had surgery for certain stages of non-small cell lung cancer and still have signs of cancer DNA in their blood. Researchers will track if this combination treatment clears the cancer DNA from the blood, which may predict long-term success.
