The leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the United States continues to be lung cancer. Approximately 25-30% of patients are diagnosed with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Concurrent chemoradiation with a platinum-based doublet is the current standard of care for patients with inoperable stage III NSCLC. Unfortunately, only 15-20% of patients treated with definitive chemoradiation are alive at 5 years. Thus, there has been a major unmet need in this area. In this article, we summarize the current status and ongoing clinical trials incorporating immunotherapy into the management of inoperable stage III NSCLC, and we also present our perspective on the future directions.

Registry and results database of federally and privately supported clinical trials conducted in United States and around world. Provides information about purpose of trial, who may participate, locations, and phone numbers for more details. This information should be used in conjunction with advice from health care professionals.Offers information for locating federally and privately supported clinical trials for wide range of diseases and conditions. Research study in human volunteers to answer specific health questions. Interventional trials determine whether experimental treatments or new ways of using known therapies are safe and effective under controlled environments. Observational trials address health issues in large groups of people or populations in natural settings. ClinicalTrials.gov contains trials sponsored by National Institutes of Health, other federal agencies, and private industry. Studies listed in database are conducted in all 50 States and in 178 countries.
