New hope for lung cancer patients deemed 'Untreatable'

NCT ID NCT04765709

Summary

This study tested a three-step treatment for patients with a large, inoperable form of lung cancer who cannot receive the standard therapy. The goal was to see if starting with a drug called durvalumab plus chemotherapy could shrink tumors enough for patients to safely receive follow-up radiation and more durvalumab. Researchers hoped this approach would help control the cancer and allow more people to get potentially effective treatment.
