Summary
This trial tests N-803 with standard treatments for patients with severe lung cancer. N-803 aims to boost the immune system to fight cancer cells more effectively.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with stage 3 or 4 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who haven't had systemic chemotherapy for advanced/metastatic NSCLC. They must have tumors without certain genetic mutations, measurable tumor lesions, and an ECOG performance status of 0 or 1. Participants need to provide consent, tissue samples, agree to contraception use if applicable, and not be candidates for surgery or chemoradiation.
What is being tested?
The study compares the safety and effectiveness of N-803 combined with standard cancer treatments versus the standard treatments alone in NSCLC patients. It's a phase 3 trial where treatment continues up to two years unless there are issues like disease progression or unacceptable side effects.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include reactions related to immune system activation such as inflammation in various organs, infusion-related reactions from the drugs being administered intravenously, fatigue from treatment burden on the body, digestive disturbances due to drug impact on gastrointestinal function.

Other Research
Common treatments for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) include immunotherapy and chemotherapy. Immunotherapy, such as immune checkpoint inhibitors (e.g., pembrolizumab, nivolumab), enhances the immune system's ability to target and destroy cancer cells by blocking proteins that inhibit T-cell activity.
Chemotherapy uses drugs like cisplatin and pemetrexed to kill cancer cells by damaging their DNA or disrupting cell division. The IL-15 superagonist (N-803) being studied aims to further boost the immune response by enhancing the activity of natural killer (NK) cells and T-cells.
This is crucial for NSCLC patients as it may improve the body's natural ability to combat cancer, potentially leading to better outcomes and prolonged survival.
