Comparing AK104 and Sugemalimab for advanced lung cancer treatment

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study evaluates the effectiveness and safety of AK104 compared to Sugemalimab as a consolidation therapy for patients with unresectable, locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have not shown disease progression after receiving chemoradiotherapy. Participants must have completed their treatment within a specific timeframe and meet certain health criteria. The study aims to determine which treatment provides better outcomes for these patients.
