Scientists test Two-Pronged attack on spreading lung cancer

NCT ID NCT02812667

Summary

This early-stage study tested the safety of combining an experimental drug, plinabulin, with an approved immunotherapy, nivolumab, for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that had spread. The main goal was to find the highest dose of the combination that patients could tolerate without severe side effects. Researchers also wanted to see early signs of whether the combination could help shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
