New drug duo aims to outsmart tough lung cancers

NCT ID NCT04467723

Summary

This study is testing whether adding an oral drug called pirfenidone to an existing immunotherapy (atezolizumab) can help control advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has come back or spread after initial treatments. It will involve about 25 adults to first check safety and then see if the combination can shrink tumors and help patients live longer. The goal is to see if this approach can overcome the cancer's resistance to standard immunotherapies.
