Summary

This study looks at whether giving pembrolizumab infusions in the morning improves outcomes for people with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer. 58 participants will be randomly assigned to morning or standard scheduling. The goal is to see if timing affects how long the cancer stays under control and if this approach is practical for a larger trial.

What this could lead to
