NKTR-255 in Restoring Lymphocytes after Chemoradiotherapy for the Treatment of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, RESCUE Study

Trial Status: active

This phase II trial tests how well NKTR-255 works in combination with the standard drug durvalumab in treating non-small cell lung cancer after completion of chemotherapy with radiotherapy. NKTR-255 is designed to boost the immune system’s natural ability to fight cancer. Durvalumab is designed to treat certain cancers by working with the body’s immune system. NKTR-255 in combination with durvalumab may act on immune cells to help improve the health of the immune system after chemotherapy with radiotherapy.
