Summary

This study tests a DNA vaccine called STEMVAC in people with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. The vaccine gives the body instructions to make parts of five proteins found on lung cancer cells, helping the immune system recognize and attack them. The trial includes 5 participants who are already on maintenance therapy. The goal is to see if the vaccine can shrink tumors and boost immune response.
