BLCIO Trial Summary
This trial is studying a possible new treatment protocol for stage IV non-small cell lung cancer that may improve survival and quality of life.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for English-speaking adults with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), including current or recent smokers. Participants must be willing to share medical records and biospecimens, and complete questionnaires. They should not have hearing or vision impairments that would affect their participation, nor should they have been treated for advanced lung cancer for over a month before joining.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The 'Beating Lung Cancer in Ohio' protocol is being tested to see if it can improve survival rates by using immunotherapies and targeted therapies instead of conventional chemotherapy. These treatments are expected to be less toxic and may positively impact the quality of life.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed, immunotherapies and targeted therapies typically may cause reactions at the injection site, flu-like symptoms, fatigue, skin reactions, organ inflammation, and changes in blood counts.

Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Arm II (AGIT/DS)Experimental Treatment6 Interventions
Patients undergo collection of tumor tissue for analysis using FoundationOne assay and blood sample for analysis using FoundationACT blood circulating tumor DNA assay. Patients who smoke or have recently quit smoking and their household members who smoke may also undergo smoking cessation via usual care or NCCN driven-CTC/DS.
Group II: Arm I (UC)Active Control7 Interventions
Patients receive usual care and undergo collection of tumor tissue and blood sample for the repository. Patients who smoke or have recently quit smoking and their household members who smoke may also undergo smoking cessation via usual care or NCCN driven-CTC/DS.
