Testing tocilizumab plus atezolizumab after lung cancer treatment failure
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial studies whether combining tocilizumab with atezolizumab can help people with advanced lung cancer that has already stopped responding to an immune checkpoint medicine. It may help when standard immune therapy (and other treatments) aren’t working anymore.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are an adult (18 or older) with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (stage IV or it came back after a prior cure attempt).
- Your cancer has already been treated with at least one full round of therapy before joining the study.
- You must have taken an immune checkpoint inhibitor right before this trial (the most recent treatment that did not work).
- Your day-to-day functioning is fairly good (ECOG performance status 0–2).
- You do not have a gene driver mutation that could be treated with targeted drugs.
- You do not have certain serious problems after prior immunotherapy (no toxicity higher than grade 3 from the last immune treatment).

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (tislelizumab and anlotinib) for people with advanced lung cancer whose first immunotherapy treatment stopped working. The goal is to see if this new combination can help when the first treatment stopped being effective.
This trial studies a two-drug treatment (cabozantinib plus atezolizumab) for people with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It may help control the cancer and shrink tumors, especially for patients whose tumor tests show low PD-L1 and who fit the trial’s prior-treatment rules.
This trial tests a new drug combination (N-803 and tislelizumab with chemotherapy) for people whose lung cancer stopped responding to standard immunotherapy. The goal is to see if this treatment can help shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
This trial tests a drug called Tislelizumab (an immunotherapy) combined with chemotherapy for people with advanced NSCLC who have already been helped by a different immunotherapy. It's a second-line option for those who did well on their first immunotherapy but now need another treatment.
This trial is testing a new combination of treatments, including an immune drug (sintilimab) and a cholesterol-lowering drug (tafolecimab), along with chemotherapy, for people with advanced lung cancer that no longer responds to standard immunotherapy.
This trial studies temozolomide plus atezolizumab in people with metastatic or recurring small cell lung cancer that has already come back or progressed after standard platinum chemotherapy plus immunotherapy. It may help by trying a new combination after prior treatment has stopped working.
