Summary

This study monitored drug levels in the blood of 80 patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer who were receiving pembrolizumab (immunotherapy) alone or with chemotherapy. Researchers wanted to see if drug levels were linked to how well the cancer responded or if side effects occurred. The study was stopped early, but the data may help guide future dosing.
