Testing atezolizumab after surgery for early stage lung cancer
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests if the immunotherapy drug atezolizumab can prevent early stage non-small cell lung cancer from coming back after surgery. It is for people whose tumors have high levels of a protein called PD-L1 (50% or more) and do not have certain gene changes (EGFR or ALK).
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had surgery to remove your lung cancer and the surgeon confirmed all cancer was removed.
- Your cancer is a specific early stage (IA3 or IB) non-small cell lung cancer.
- Your tumor has high PD-L1 levels (50% or more) on a special test.
- You do not have an EGFR or ALK gene mutation in your tumor (unless your tumor is purely squamous type).
- You are at least 18 years old and have recovered well enough from surgery to start treatment within 21 to 77 days after surgery.
- You have good organ function (kidney, liver, blood counts) and no serious uncontrolled health problems.

This trial tests whether adding an immunotherapy medicine to standard chemotherapy after surgery can improve outcomes for some people with non-small cell lung cancer. It may help by boosting the immune system to reduce the chance the cancer comes back.
This trial tests whether giving immunotherapy (durvalumab) after surgery can help prevent lung cancer from coming back if you already had a complete response to chemo and immunotherapy before surgery. It is for people with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer who had no cancer left after treatment.
This trial studies whether giving different cancer medicines before (and sometimes after) surgery improves outcomes for people with early-stage, operable lung cancer that has certain tumor markers. It may help by trying to shrink or control the cancer early and lower the chance it comes back.
This trial studies whether adding atezolizumab (an immune medicine) to standard platinum-based chemotherapy before surgery can improve outcomes for operable stage II–IIIB non-small cell lung cancer. The goal is to shrink the tumor and increase the chance the cancer can be removed with better results.
This trial tests whether the immunotherapy drug atezolizumab, given before and after surgery, can help treat stage III non-small cell lung cancer that has not spread to other parts of the body. It is for people who have not had any previous cancer treatment for this disease.
This study tests a combination of the immunotherapy drug atezolizumab with standard chemotherapy given before surgery for people with stage II to IIIB non-small cell lung cancer that can be removed. The goal is to see if this approach helps shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
