New radiation therapy targets tough lung cancer tumors
NCT ID NCT07500285
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new treatment called Y-90 FAPI for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has stopped responding to standard therapies. The treatment delivers radiation directly to cancer cells by targeting a protein found on tumor-supporting cells. The goal is to see if it is safe and can shrink tumors or slow disease progression.
