What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLTs)

    Phase 1: Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLTs) as defined based on the NCI Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), version 5.0.

    Measured: 9 weeks

  2. Overall Response Rate (ORR)

    Phase 2: Overall response rate by imaging at time of first repeat imaging (~9w from the start of therapy) using standard response criteria (RECIST v1.126). ORR is defined as the combined percent of the patients experiencing a partial response (PR) or a complete response (CR) at time of first reimaging.

    Measured: 9 weeks

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Best overall response (BORR)

    Best overall response (BORR) will be a combined percent of the patients experiencing a partial response (PR) or a complete response (CR) at any point within the first year from the initiation of therapy, or until the documented progression of disease or start of a new anti-cancer therapy.

    Measured: 5 years

  2. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    Progression-free survival (PFS) is defined as the time in days from the first administration of dupilumab until documented progression of disease on imaging or death Defined as the time in days from the first administration of dupilumab until documented progression of disease on imaging or death

    Measured: 5 years

  3. Overall Survival (OS)

    Overall survival (OS) is defined as the time in days from the first administration of dupilumab until documented death from any cause.

    Measured: 5 years

  4. Duration of response (DOR)

    Duration of response (DOR) is defined as the time from which a patient achieves either a PR or a CR until subsequent progression of disease is documented radiographically or clinically.

    Defined as the time from which a patient achieves either a PR or a CR until subsequent progression of disease is documented radiographically or clinically.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Dupilumab, PD-1/PD-L1 blockade and Anakinra in people with Metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Thomas Marron at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 11 inclusion and 15 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Aug 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLTs) (time frame: 9 weeks). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05013450, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 31 Aug 2026.
