What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.

Summary

This phase 3 trial is testing whether an investigational drug called ABBV-1480, when combined with chemotherapy, works better than the current standard treatment (pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy) for adults with advanced or metastatic squamous non-small cell lung cancer. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two treatment groups, and the study measures how long they live without the cancer growing and overall survival. The goal is to see if this new combination can offer a more effective first-line option for this type of lung cancer.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
ABBV-1480 (an investigational drug) combined with chemotherapy
What this could lead to
If ABBV-1480 outperforms pembrolizumab, it could become a new first-line treatment option for advanced squamous non-small cell lung cancer, potentially extending life or delaying cancer growth.
What could go wrong
This is an early-phase 3 trial, so results are not guaranteed. The experimental drug may not be more effective than the current standard, and combining it with chemotherapy could increase side effects.
