Drug duo aims to tackle tough lung cancers after first treatment fails

NCT ID NCT07703228

First seen Jul 14, 2026 · Last updated Jul 15, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This trial tests whether combining sacituzumab tirumotecan (a targeted antibody-drug conjugate) with anlotinib (a multi-targeted pill) can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth in people with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer that has no known driver gene mutations. Participants receive both drugs after their first-line immunotherapy and chemotherapy stopped working. The study also looks for biomarkers in blood that might predict who benefits most.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
a combination of sacituzumab tirumotecan (an antibody-drug conjugate targeting TROP2) and anlotinib (a multi-target tyrosine kinase inhibitor)
What this could lead to
If successful, this combination could offer a new second-line treatment option for people with advanced non-squamous lung cancer who have no targetable gene mutations.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase single-arm study without a control group, so results may not be definitive. Side effects from the drug combination could be significant.
