Study Summary

This trial is studying a combination of two drugs, LMB-100 and pembrolizumab, as a possible treatment for non-small cell lung cancer.

Who is the study for?
Adults over 18 with non-squamous NSCLC that's resistant to standard treatments can join. They must have a good heart function, be able to perform daily activities, and have recovered from previous therapies. Participants need measurable disease and cannot have severe autoimmune diseases, active infections, or certain other health conditions.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial tests if LMB-100 followed by pembrolizumab shrinks tumors in advanced NSCLC patients. It involves initial hospital stays for LMB-100 injections and then regular pembrolizumab doses for up to two years, with lifelong follow-up via visits or communication.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions at the injection site, fatigue, immune system complications like inflammation of organs (which may require steroids), potential infection risks due to lowered immunity, and possibly others not listed here.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Are there other Mesothelin Expression clinical trials that have been completed?

"Currently, there are 1,000 ongoing studies related to mesothelin expression. Of those, 122 are in phase 3. Although many of the trials for this treatment are located in Houston, Texas, there are 36,034 total locations running these studies."

Answered by AI

What are the primary benefits of Mesothelin Expression?

"Mesothelin Expression is a treatment for cancerous growths. It can also help treat other conditions such as melanoma, microsatellite instability high, and disease progression after chemotherapy."

Answered by AI

Are there any more positions available for participants in this trial?

"This trial is not presently recruiting candidates at this time. The clinical trial was first posted on 9/11/2019 and was most recently updated on 10/4/2022. If you are exploring for other studies, there are currently 2981 studies actively admitting participants with adenocarcinoma of lung and 1000 studies for Mesothelin Expression actively recruiting patients."

Answered by AI

Does the FDA recognize Mesothelin Expression as a therapeutic target?

"While there is some evidence that suggests Mesothelin Expression is safe, as this is only a Phase 2 trial, there is currently no data supporting its efficacy."

Answered by AI

How many people can join this clinical study?

"Unfortunately, this specific study is not looking for new patients right now. However, there are 2981 other clinical trials involving adenocarcinoma of the lung and 1000 studies concerning Mesothelin Expression that are currently enrolling participants."
