Testing the Safety of Dapagliflozin Prior to Surgery for the Treatment of Patients With Stage IA Lung Adenocarcinoma (NCT07235280)

An Open-Label Safety and Tolerability Pilot Study of Dapagliflozin in Stage IA Lung Adenocarcinoma

๐ŸŸข Recruiting Early Phase1 ๐Ÿ’Š Investigational Drug / Biologic Sponsor: Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center

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

This early phase I trial tests the safety and side effects of dapagliflozin given prior to surgery in patients with stage IA lung adenocarcinoma. Dapagliflozin is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of diabetes and heart failure. It is an SGLT2 inhibitor. Stage I lung adenocarcinomas express significantly higher levels of the SGLT2 protein than other stages, and research suggests that SGLT2 inhibition improves lung cancer outcomes in patients with diabetes. In this study, dapagliflozin is being used off-label, which means it is being used for a condition that it was not originally approved for by the FDA. The investigational study drug is a neoadjuvant treatment, meaning the drug is given before surgery to try and help make the surgery more effective.
