About this study

This study is phase II, open label, clinical trial of durvalumab to identify immune dynamics in operable non-small cell lung cancer.

Read the detailed description

In this study, the investigators plan to administer neoadjuvant durvalumab and adjuvant durvalumab to the operable NSCLC patients (resectable stage IIA~IIIB) regardless of PD-L1 status.

Durvalumab 1500mg IV will be administered once prior to surgery. Within 1-8 weeks after completion of durvalumab, patients will undergo surgery. Regardless of MRD status, patients will receive adjuvant treatment of durvalumab 1500mg IV q3 weeks with SoC platinum-based chemotherapy for a total of 4 cycles.

** Adjuvant chemotherapy will be based on standard of care treatment: navelbine 20mg/m2 (D1, 8) and cisplatin 80mg/m2 (D1) (q3w x 4 cycles).

Thereafter, patients will be administered with adjuvant durvalumab 1500mg IV q4 weeks for 10 cycles

    Measured: At screening, Post neo-adjuvant durvalamab (+ 1 week ~ prior to surgery), Post-op (3-4 weeks after surgery), Post-op at 3 months (+/- 7 days), Post-op at 6 months (+/- 7 days), After progression (+/- 7 days)

  2. Locoregional control

    Measured: UP to 2years

  3. Distant metastases free survival

    Measured: UP to 3years

  4. Disease-free survival

    Measured: UP to 3years

  5. Overall survival (OS)

    Measured: Up to 5years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing durvalumab in people with Non Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Yonsei University at 1 site in South Korea.

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 17 inclusion and 23 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 27 Jan 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 South Korea. 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 phase mean?

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?

Major pathologic response (time frame: Right after the surgery). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 27 Jan 2026.
