Summary

This trial is testing a new drug, durvalumab, to see if it can help reduce the growth of lung cancer in combination with a type of radiation therapy called SABR. The trial will enroll 105 subjects who will be randomly assigned to receive either the combination therapy or SABR alone. Follow-up visits will be conducted to monitor subjects' health and collect blood samples to study the effects of the drug and radiation therapy.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with newly diagnosed, untreated non-small cell lung cancer that's in stage I. They must be unable to undergo surgery or refuse it and have good organ function and performance status (able to carry out daily activities). Pregnant women, those on immunosuppressants, with certain other health conditions or previous treatments like PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors are excluded.
What is being tested?
The study tests durvalumab combined with Stereotactic Ablative Body Radiotherapy (SABR) against SABR alone in a randomized fashion. Initially, safety will be assessed in a small group before more participants are randomly assigned to either the combination therapy or just SABR.
What are the potential side effects?
Durvalumab may cause immune-related side effects affecting different organs, infusion reactions similar to allergic responses, fatigue, and potential worsening of pre-existing autoimmune diseases. Radiation can lead to skin changes at the treatment site and fatigue.
