Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates for this study are adults aged 18 and older with stage IVB non-squamous NSCLC who have previously received limited treatment options.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with specific genetic mutations such as EGFR sensitizing mutations or ALK gene fusion may not benefit from this study.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This phase II trial investigates the effectiveness of cadonilimab, a bispecific antibody targeting PD-1 and CTLA-4, in combination with bevacizumab and docetaxel for treating patients with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The study aims to enhance the immune response against cancer cells while also regulating the tumor microenvironment and inhibiting tumor growth through standard chemotherapy. Patients eligible for this trial must have progressed on prior treatments and have measurable disease. The combination therapy is hypothesized to provide better outcomes compared to standard care.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment approach could significantly improve survival rates and quality of life for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promise with similar immunotherapy combinations, indicating potential for success in this approach.
