Neoadjuvant Inhaled Azacytidine With Platinum-Based Chemotherapy and Durvalumab (MEDI4736) - a Combined Epigenetic-Immunotherapy (AZA-AEGEAN) Regimen for Operable Early-Stage Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)

Background: Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common type of lung cancer. Surgery to remove the tumors is the standard treatment for people diagnosed with early stages of NSCLC. Despite complete removal of these tumors, many recur (happen again). An FDA-approved drug combination to treat early-stage NSCLC prior to the surgery is durvalumab plus standard chemotherapy. The FDA approved infusion drug azacytidine \[AZA\] is used to treat several diseases because it can rapidly kill dividing cells (including cancer cells) but it is not approved for NSCLC. An inhaled (aerosolized) form of AZA is also not approved for NSCLC. However, researchers want to know if an inhaled version of AZA can help improve treatment of people with NSCLC because inhaled AZA goes directly into the lungs with limited absorption into the bloodstream. Objective: To find the safest and most effective dose of inhaled AZA in participants with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that can still be removed by surgery. Eligibility: Adults aged 18 and older with operable early-stage NSCLC. Participants will be required to also enroll in NIH protocol 06C0014 which allows for pre- and post-treatment biopsies and bloodwork to be obtained for additional research studies. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam with blood tests. Their medical records will be reviewed. They will have imaging scans and tests of their heart and lung functions. Participants will be required to have a tissue sample (biopsy) taken of their tumor prior to receiving study drug and again during surgery after Cycle 3; airway tissue biopsies and collection of collect bronchial (lung) fluid may also be done. Participants will receive the study treatment for 3 cycles. Each cycle is 21 days. They will need to come to the NIH Clinical Center (CC) on days 1-4 of Cycles 1-3. AZA will be given as a drug mist that can be inhaled (like the type of mist in an asthma inhaler) using a nebulizer at the NIH Clinical Center (CC) for 3 days in a row (consecutive days) during the first week of each cycle. The participant will inhale the AZA drug mist for 20 to 30 minutes each time. Participants will also receive durvalumab and a specific 2-drug assigned chemotherapy by intravenous (IV) infusion on day 4 of each cycle. Participants will have a follow-up visit 2 weeks after their last dose of study drugs. Then they will have planned surgery to remove the tumors. Participants will have additional follow-up visits at the NIH CC about 1 and 3 months after the surgery, and then for every 3 months for up to 3 years. ...

A Study of Cemiplimab Plus Chemotherapy Versus Cemiplimab Plus Chemotherapy Plus Other Cancer Treatments for Adult Patients With Operable Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)

This study will enroll adult participants with early-stage (stage II-IIIB) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) for whom surgery is planned, in the resectable NSCLC portion. The aim of the resectable NSCLC portion is to find out whether an investigational treatment (consisting of the immunotherapy drug cemiplimab plus chemotherapy plus a third drug) works better than cemiplimab plus chemotherapy without the additional drug. For each investigational arm, the available data will be reviewed to decide whether safety testing with chemotherapy is needed before moving the treatment combination to the main resectable NSCLC portion of the study. If safety testing with chemotherapy is required, adult participants whose tumour has spread to other organs or cannot be removed by surgery, will be enrolled in the unresectable/metastatic NSCLC portion of the study called the "safety lead-in." The aim of the unresectable/metastatic NSCLC safety lead-in portion is to evaluate the safety of the combination of Cemiplimab, chemotherapy, and an additional drug in participants with unresectable or metastatic NSCLC. For the resectable NSCLC portion, the study is also looking at several other research questions, including: * What are the side effects associated with the investigational treatments in comparison to the control treatment * Do the investigational treatments or the control treatment have an effect on the type of surgery that is performed * How much of the study drug(s) are in the blood at a given time * Does the body make antibodies against the study drug(s) (which could make the drug(s) less effective or could lead to side effects) For the unresectable/metastatic NSCLC portion, the study is also looking at several other research questions, including: * What are the side effects associated with the additional drug in combination with cemiplimab and chemotherapy * How does the additional drug work in combination with cemiplimab and chemotherapy

ERICA-02 Study : Impact of Physical Exercise on the Tumor Immune Microenvironment in Patients Treated With Neoadjuvant Chemoimmunotherapy for Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

Recent advances combining chemotherapy and immunotherapy before surgery have significantly improved outcomes for patients with resectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, a substantial proportion of patients still do not respond optimally to these treatments. Researchers believe that physical activity may help strengthen the immune system and favorably modify the tumor microenvironment, potentially improving treatment effectiveness. ERICA-02 aims to investigate this hypothesis.The primary objective of ERICA-02 is to evaluate whether a structured exercise program performed during neoadjuvant chemo-immunotherapy can increase the presence of CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes within the tumor. These immune cells play a key role in recognizing and destroying cancer cells and are considered an important marker of anti-tumor immune response.The study is designed for adults with locally advanced, resectable non-small cell lung cancer who are eligible for neoadjuvant chemo-immunotherapy followed by surgery. Participants must be medically fit to engage in physical activity, able to comply with study procedures, and provide informed consent before enrollment.ERICA-02 is a multicenter, randomized phase II pilot trial involving approximately 40 patients. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups : intervention group and control group. Each participant will be involved in the study for approximately six months, including three months of exercise intervention for patients assigned to the exercise group.

A Study to Assess Disease Activity and Adverse Events of Intravenous (IV) Telisotuzumab Vedotin Compared to IV Docetaxel in Adult Participants With Previously Treated Non-Squamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)

Cancer is a condition where cells in a specific part of body grow and reproduce uncontrollably. Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a solid tumor, a disease in which cancer cells form in the tissues of the lung. The purpose of this study is to determine if telisotuzumab vedotin works better than docetaxel and to assess how safe telisotuzumab vedotin is in adult participants with NSCLC who have previously been treated. Change in disease activity and adverse events will be assessed. Telisotuzumab vedotin is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of NSCLC. Participants will be randomly assigned a treatment of telisotuzumab vedotin or docetaxel at an 1:1 ratio. Each group receives intravenous (IV) infusion of telisotuzumab vedotin or IV infusion of docetaxel. Approximately 768 adult participants with c-Met overexpressing NSCLC will be enrolled in the study in approximately 330 sites worldwide. Participants will receive IV telisotuzumab vedotin every 2 weeks or docetaxel every 3 weeks until meeting study drug discontinuation criteria. At the conclusion of the study, participants who continue to demonstrate clinical benefit may be eligible to receive study treatment via an extension of the study, a rollover study, or through another mechanism. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.

Autologous CAR T-Cells Targeting the GD2 Antigen for Lung Cancer

This is a phase 1, single-center, open-label study that enrolls adult subjects with extensive stage lung cancer or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer that is platinum-refractory and received PD-1 and/or PD-L1 therapy. The purpose of this study is to test the safety of using a new treatment called autologous T lymphocyte chimeric antigen receptor cells against the GD2 antigen (iC9-GD2.CAR.IL-15 T cells) in subjects with lung cancer. How much (dose) of the iC9-GD2.CAR.IL-15 T cells are safe to use without causing too many side effects and what is the maximum dose that could be tolerated will be studied. Modified immune cells as an experimental treatment that combines antibodies and T cells will be used. Antibodies are proteins that protect the body from foreign invaders like bacteria. T cells, also called T lymphocytes, are special infection-fighting blood cells that can kill viruses and other cells, including tumor cells. Although antibodies and T cells have been used to treat cancer and they both have shown promise, neither alone has been able to cure most patients. This study will combine T cells and antibodies to create a more effective treatment. The treatment that is being researched in this study is called autologous T lymphocyte chimeric antigen receptor cells targeted against the disialoganglioside (GD2) antigen that expresses Interleukin (IL)-15, and the inducible caspase 9 safety switch (iC9). The short name for this treatment is iC9.GD2.CAR.IL-15 T cells therapy is an experimental therapy and has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration. There are two steps. In the first step, blood will be collected from the subjects to prepare the iC9-GD2.CAR.IL-15 T cells. T cells will be isolated from the blood and modified to make iC9-GD2.CAR.IL-15. In the second step, the iC9-GD2.CAR.IL-15 T cells produced from the subject's own blood will be administered to the subject.
