PET-guided small volume chemoradiation with immunotherapy for lung cancer
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests a new combination of chemotherapy, radiation, and immunotherapy (durvalumab) for people with stage III non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be removed with surgery. The goal is to see if giving a smaller, more focused radiation dose can be just as effective with fewer side effects.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have stage III non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be removed with surgery.
- Your tumor must have PD-L1 expression of 1% or more (a protein that helps cancer hide).
- You must be in good enough health to receive chemotherapy, radiation, and immunotherapy together.
- You cannot have had any prior treatment for lung cancer (except for a very early stage cancer that was completely removed).
- You must have adequate lung function, as shown by specific breathing tests.

This trial tests a new schedule of chemo-radiation (fewer, stronger sessions) followed by an immunotherapy drug called tislelizumab. The goal is to see if this approach works better than the standard longer schedule for people with stage III lung cancer that can't be surgically removed.
This trial tests a new combination of immunotherapy and chemotherapy before and after standard chemoradiation for patients with stage III lung cancer that cannot be surgically removed. The goal is to see if this approach improves outcomes compared to chemoradiation alone.
This trial tests a personalized combination of radiation and immunotherapy for people with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a high level of a protein called PD-L1. It aims to improve treatment by tailoring the therapy to each patient's tumor.
This trial tests combining chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and two immune-boosting drugs (iparomlimab and tuvonralimab) as a first treatment for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be surgically removed. It aims to see if this combination improves outcomes compared to standard care.
This trial tests if giving the immunotherapy drug durvalumab after chemoradiation and surgery helps people with stage 3 non-small cell lung cancer. You will receive standard chemoradiation, then have surgery, and then get durvalumab to see if it lowers the chance of the cancer coming back.
This trial tests a combination of immunotherapy, chemotherapy, and either surgery or radiation for people with stage IIIA or IIIB non-small cell lung cancer. The goal is to see if adding the drug durvalumab after standard treatment helps control the cancer better.
