Comparing chemo-immunotherapy combinations for advanced lung cancer
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study compares two standard treatments for metastatic non-small cell lung cancer when the tumor has low levels of a protein called PD-L1. It looks at how well chemotherapy plus pembrolizumab works versus chemotherapy plus nivolumab and ipilimumab.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to other parts of the body (stage IV).
- Your tumor has a PD-L1 level below 50%.
- You are about to start your first treatment for advanced lung cancer.
- You have not had any prior systemic therapy for metastatic lung cancer.

This trial tests whether using two immunotherapy drugs together works better than a single drug for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that does not have the PD-L1 protein. The study aims to find a more effective treatment for this specific type of lung cancer.
This trial is comparing a new combination of two immunotherapy drugs (nivolumab and relatlimab) plus chemotherapy against the standard immunotherapy (pembrolizumab) plus chemotherapy for people with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer that has a certain protein (PD-L1) on at least 1% of its cells. The goal is to see if the new combination works better.
This trial tests a three-drug combination (ipilimumab, nivolumab, and nogapendekin alfa inbakicept) as a first treatment for people with stage IV or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer. The goal is to see if this approach can help your immune system fight the cancer more effectively.
This trial tests a new immunotherapy drug, rilvegostomig, against the standard pembrolizumab, both given with chemotherapy, as a first treatment for advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that cannot be cured with surgery or radiation. It is for people whose tumors have high PD-L1 levels and do not have certain genetic mutations.
This Phase 1 study tests pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy) given together with a chemotherapy drug to treat non-small cell lung cancer that is locally advanced or has spread. It’s aimed at people who can handle treatment with an ECOG performance status of 2, including some with certain types of brain metastases.
This trial tests combining two immunotherapy drugs (nivolumab and ipilimumab) with chemotherapy as a first treatment for advanced lung cancer that has spread or come back. It may help if your cancer hasn't been treated before and doesn't have certain genetic changes.
