About this trial

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is one of the leading causes of death in Western countries. Today, a new frontier in the fight against cancer is immunotherapy, a treatment that aims to "awaken" the patient's immune system to help it recognize and attack cancer cells.

Among the various approaches, there is significant focus on therapies that activate T lymphocytes, a type of immune cell, encouraging them to react against the tumor. These treatments have led to important progress and represent a hope for the future.
