Study Summary

Metastatic non small cell lung cancer can be treated with cytotoxic chemotherapy or using recently approved immunotherapy with antibody, Nivolumab. Both the therapies have limitation due to development of tolerance or immunosuppression. This trial combines one drug from each category, immunotherapeutic Nivolumab and chemotherapeutic gemcitabine as it was reported that gemcitabine reduces immunosuppression by killing myeloid derived suppressor cells, thereby increasing the efficacy of Nivolumab.

Primary Outcome

Immunosuppression in terms of number of circulating MDSC in the blood by comparing within each arm reduction in the number of MDSCs after each cycle of treatment

Interventions

  • BIOLOGICAL Nivolumab
  • DRUG Nivolumab+Gemcitabine
