New combo therapy aims to shrink lung tumors before surgery

NCT ID NCT04933903

Summary

This study is testing a new pre-surgery treatment for people with operable non-small cell lung cancer. Before having surgery to remove the tumor, participants receive a combination of two immunotherapy drugs (ipilimumab and nivolumab) along with a short, targeted course of low-dose radiation. The main goal is to see if this combination can significantly shrink or eliminate the cancer in the removed tissue, which may improve long-term outcomes.
