Summary

This study is for people with stage IB to III non-small cell lung cancer that can be removed with surgery. Before surgery, participants receive a low dose of targeted radiation along with two immunotherapy drugs (ipilimumab and nivolumab). The goal is to see if this combination can shrink or eliminate the tumor before surgery, and to check how safe the treatment is. The study involves 25 participants and uses a two-stage design to stop early if the treatment is not effective enough.
