New cocktail of drugs shows promise for tough lung cancer
NCT ID NCT03819465
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This early-stage trial tests whether combining the immunotherapy durvalumab with other experimental drugs (danvatirsen, oleclumab) and/or chemotherapy can safely control stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. About 175 people who have not had prior treatment for metastatic disease will receive different drug combinations. The main goal is to check safety and see if tumors shrink.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- durvalumab (an immunotherapy) combined with danvatirsen, oleclumab, and/or chemotherapy
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could point toward new combination treatments that help control advanced lung cancer for longer.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very early (Phase 1) trial with only 175 participants, so results may not apply broadly. Side effects from combining multiple drugs are unknown.
