Study Summary

This phase II trial tests how well diclofenac works in treating patients non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that may have spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic) on single agent immunotherapy. Diclofenac, a type of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAID), blocks the body's production of a substance that causes inflammation and may decrease tumor growth and improve the effectiveness of immunotherapy. Immunotherapy with pembrolizumab, atezolizumab, nivolumab or cemiplimab, may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving diclofenac may kill more tumor cells in patients with metastatic NSCLC on single agent immunotherapy.
