Clinical Trials Shaker Dakhil, M.D. is currently running
Talazoparib + Temozolomide
for Small Cell Lung Cancer
This trial studies how effective talazoparib and temozolomide are for treating patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer that has come back after initial chemotherapy. Talazoparib stops cancer cells from repairing their DNA, while temozolomide kills or stops the growth of these cells. The combination may work better than either drug alone.
