First seen Oct 31, 2025 · Last updated Jun 23, 2026 · Updated 34 times
Summary
This phase 2 trial is testing a combination of three drugs—datopotamab deruxtecan, carboplatin, and pembrolizumab—in 46 people with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to the brain and who have not had prior treatment for those brain tumors. The goal is to see how well the drugs shrink brain tumors. After four cycles, patients continue on two of the drugs until the disease gets worse or side effects become too severe.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
datopotamab deruxtecan, carboplatin, and pembrolizumab
What this could lead to
If successful, this combination could offer a new treatment option for lung cancer patients with brain metastases, potentially shrinking brain tumors and controlling the disease longer.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial (46 people) with no control group, so results may not apply broadly. The drug combination can cause serious side effects, and it's unclear if it will work better than existing treatments.
