These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Has the FDA cleared Durvalumab in combination with standard chemotherapy for use?

"Durvalumab + SoC chemotherapy was given a safety score of 3 by our analysts at Power. This is because Phase 3 trials have some data backing up the efficacy of the medication and there is data from multiple rounds supporting its safety."

If I wanted to help test this new treatment, what would I need to do?

"Researchers are looking for 89 individuals aged 18-130 who have non-small-cell lung carcinoma that meets the following stage requirements: resectable (stage II-III). Furthermore, all potential participants must be able to provide informed consent, including compliance with ICFs and the study protocol. Finally, patients must have had a complete resection of the primary NSCLC."
