About this trial
Characterize and trace innovative nutraceuticals based on microencapsulated resveratrol and Cynara cardunculus extract, using preclinical models such as organotypic tissue slices and tumoroids created from tumor fragments derived from patients with non-small cell lung cancer. This will enable the development of combination therapies to increase the efficacy of immunotherapy in NSCLC and reduce side effects that lead to treatment discontinuation.
The market implementation of these products may offer unique advantages, including increased clinical efficacy, improved tolerability of immune checkpoint inhibitors, reduced healthcare costs, improved quality of life for patients and their families, traceability of naturally derived products, and environmental sustainability.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Efficacy of microencapsulated nutraceutical compounds.
To investigate the efficacy of novel microencapsulated nutraceutical compounds in combination with immunotherapy in patients with lung cancer. Efficacy is measured as directly proportional to the binding created between the drug and the receptor.
