New drug combo aims to shrink tough lung tumors
NCT ID NCT07697586
First seen Jul 13, 2026 · Last updated Aug 13, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This phase II trial is testing whether a combination of two drugs, SKB264 and SKB118, can safely shrink tumors in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has spread. The study includes a dose-finding phase and an expansion phase to better understand the treatment's effects. Participants must have a specific type of lung cancer without certain gene mutations and be in generally good health.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Sacituzumab tirumotecan (SKB264) and SKB118
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this combination could offer a new treatment option for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer who have limited alternatives.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early phase II trial, so the combination may not prove effective or could cause significant side effects. Results may not apply to all patients.
