One-Two punch for lung cancer: can zapping tumors boost drug power?
NCT ID NCT03410043
Summary
This study is for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific genetic change (EGFR mutation). It tests if taking the targeted drug osimertinib for 6-12 weeks, then adding focused radiation therapy or surgery to remaining tumors, works better at keeping the cancer from growing than just taking the drug alone. The goal is to see if this combined approach helps control the disease for a longer period.
