Clinical Trials Yasir Y. Elamin is currently running
Brigatinib + Chemotherapy
for Lung Cancer
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if the combination of brigatinib and either local consolidation therapy (such as radiotherapy or surgery) or chemotherapy (pemetrexed and carboplatin) can help to control the disease compared with brigatinib alone. The safety of these combinations will also be studied.

NVL-655
for NSCLC
This trial is testing a new drug called NVL-655 to see if it is safe and effective for patients with advanced ALK-positive lung cancer and other solid tumors. The drug works by blocking a protein that helps cancer cells grow. The study focuses on patients who have specific genetic changes and may not respond well to standard treatments. Newer treatments have been shown to improve outcomes in ALK-translocated lung cancer compared to older treatments.
