First seen Jan 22, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 13 times

Summary

This study tests a new drug called THIO, which targets telomeres (parts of chromosomes), followed by the immunotherapy cemiplimab in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer whose cancer stopped responding to initial immunotherapy. The goal is to see if this sequence can shrink tumors or slow disease progression. About 227 adults with stage 3 or 4 NSCLC are participating.
