Clinical Trials for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

A Phase II Study of Fingolimod in Patients With Non-Small Cell and Small Cell Lung Cancer

Moderate burden on patient

The trial has a moderate burden on patients. An example would be a trial testing an IV drug, with scans every 8 weeks which would be more frequent than standard of care.

TrialFetch AI summary: This trial is enrolling adults with advanced/metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (any molecular subtype) or extensive stage small cell lung cancer who have progressed after at least two lines of systemic therapy, including chemotherapy and immunotherapy. Participants receive oral fingolimod, a sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor modulator with immunomodulatory and potential antitumor effects, as monotherapy.

A Randomized Phase II/III Study of Docetaxel and Ramucirumab With or Without Cemiplimab for Participants Previously Treated With Platinum-Based Chemotherapy and Immunotherapy for Stage IV or Recurrent Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (Lung-MAP Non-Matched Sub-Study)

Moderate burden on patient

The trial has a moderate burden on patients. An example would be a trial testing an IV drug, with scans every 8 weeks which would be more frequent than standard of care.

TrialFetch AI summary: This trial enrolls patients with stage IV or recurrent NSCLC who have progressed after platinum-based chemotherapy and prior anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 therapy, comparing standard docetaxel plus ramucirumab versus the same regimen with the addition of cemiplimab (an anti-PD-1 antibody) to assess benefit in the post-immunotherapy setting.

A Study of PARG Inhibitor IDE161 in Participants With Advanced Solid Tumors

Active drug

Investigational drug(s) in this trial have shown anticancer activity in clinical trials

High burden on patient

The trial has a high burden on patients. An example would be a phase 1 trial with extra tumor biopsies and frequent pharmacokinetic blood draws.

Started >3 years ago

The trial was activated more than 3 years ago. This is not always bad but can indicate that the trial has less current treatments, or has had trouble getting enough patients to enroll due to other issues.

TrialFetch AI summary: This trial enrolls adults with advanced or metastatic solid tumors (excluding primary CNS tumors); for IDE161 monotherapy, patients must have BRCA1/2 or other homologous recombination deficiency gene alterations, while the combination arm is for patients with advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer who have progressed on prior anti–PD-1/L1 therapy. IDE161 is an investigational oral inhibitor of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG), targeting DNA repair in HR-deficient tumors, given alone or in combination with pembrolizumab.

High burden on patient

The trial has a high burden on patients. An example would be a phase 1 trial with extra tumor biopsies and frequent pharmacokinetic blood draws.

Started >3 years ago

The trial was activated more than 3 years ago. This is not always bad but can indicate that the trial has less current treatments, or has had trouble getting enough patients to enroll due to other issues.

TrialFetch AI summary: Adults with advanced/metastatic solid tumors lacking standard options—including cohorts for pancreatic, gastric, NSCLC, colorectal, metastatic uveal melanoma (≤2 prior lines), PD‑1/L1–refractory cutaneous melanoma, and PD‑1/L1–relapsed solid tumors—receive oral LNS8801, a selective GPER agonist, as monotherapy or combined with pembrolizumab. Key exclusions include ERα‑positive malignancies, active CNS disease for combo, prior severe PD‑1/L1 irAEs (for combo), recent estrogen/ER‑directed therapy, and strong CYP modulators or PPIs.

Prevention of Datopotamab Deruxtecan (TROP-2 Directed ADC) Associated Stomatitis in Patients With HER2-negative Metastatic Breast Cancer or Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Using Dexamethasone Mouthwash: a Single-arm, Phase 2 Trial (TROPION- DM, 2023-ESR-000087)

Moderate burden on patient

The trial has a moderate burden on patients. An example would be a trial testing an IV drug, with scans every 8 weeks which would be more frequent than standard of care.

TrialFetch AI summary: Adults with advanced/metastatic HER2-negative breast cancer (TNBC or HR+/HER2− post-CDK4/6 and chemo/ADC) or previously treated non-squamous NSCLC receive datopotamab deruxtecan (TROP2-directed ADC delivering a topoisomerase I inhibitor) plus prophylactic dexamethasone mouthwash. The study assesses whether short-course steroid mouthwash during the first three cycles reduces Dato-DXd–associated stomatitis while patients continue Dato-DXd q3w.
