Lung Clinical Trials

What is the purpose of this study?

The purpose of the study is to identify which non-small cell lung cancer patients would benefit from the addition of chemotherapy to their standard immunotherapy treatment. Researchers want to understand if patients who have the chemotherapy added are getting maximum potential benefit with less risk of side effects.

A blood test will be given to identify who would benefit from added chemotherapy by using circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA), which is DNA shed by the patient’s cancer.

What is the purpose of this study?

The purpose of this study is to compare the use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) surveillance combined with prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI) to MRI surveillance alone in treating your lung cancer that can sometimes spread to the brain.

Why is this study important?

MRI scans are used to monitor the possible spread of the cancer with an MRI machine over time. PCI is radiation therapy that is delivered to the brain in hopes of preventing spread of cancer into the brain.
