New Medication for Early-Stage Non-small cell Lung Cancer Request More Information Trial Objective Researchers are testing a medication called atezolizumab and its effects on early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Atezolizumab is an experimental immunotherapy medicine, which is a man-made antibody. Antibodies are used by the immune system to identify and destroy bacteria, viruses and tumor cells. Atezolizumab is approved to treat advanced cancer of the bladder and lung, and researchers believe it may help people who have early-stage NSCLC. In this study, participants will get either atezolizumab and chemotherapy or a placebo and chemotherapy before undergoing surgery to remove their tumor. Enrollment This trial is active and currently recruiting. Who Can Participate Adults diagnosed with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that can be surgically removed. Age: 18+ Gender: Any Gender Estimated Time Commitment The screening period may last up to 6 weeks and involve up to 2 visits to the clinic.
