Study Summary

This trial will investigate the effects of a combination of drugs (immunotherapy, platinum doublet chemotherapy, and abequolixron) to treat non-small cell lung cancer before surgery.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with non-small cell lung cancer that can be surgically removed. They must weigh more than 40 kg, have a good performance status (able to carry out daily activities), and not be on other cancer treatments except those in the study.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests how well non-small cell lung cancer responds before surgery to durvalumab (immunotherapy) plus chemotherapy (carboplatin with abraxane or pemetrexed), and when combined with an experimental drug called abequolixron.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include immune-related reactions, fatigue, nausea from chemotherapy, potential liver issues due to abequolixron, and risks associated with new drug combinations.

Answered by AI

Has Neoadjuvant therapy attained authorization from the FDA?

"Neoadjuvant therapy is considered relatively safe, therefore it was given a score of 1. This assessment is based on the fact that this is Phase 1 trial and thus there exists limited evidence to support its safety and efficacy."
