CAN-2409 Plus Prodrug With Standard of Care Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor for Stage III/IV NSCLC (NCT04495153)

CAN-2409 Plus Prodrug With Standard of Care Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor for Stage III/IV NSCLC Patients

๐Ÿ”ต Active, Not Recruiting Phase2 ๐Ÿ’Š Investigational Drug / Biologic Sponsor: Candel Therapeutics, Inc.

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effects of adding CAN-2409 + prodrug for stage III/IV NSCLC patients who are on standard of care first line immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) treatment with evidence that the clinical response is inadequate. CAN-2409 is a viral immunotherapy approach that induces tumor-infiltrating T-cells and a consequent PD-L1 up-regulation. A combination of CAN-2409 added to standard of care (SOC) checkpoint inhibitors may lead to improved long-term outcomes for patients with NSCLC who have suboptimal response to ICI therapy.
