TOP 2301: Neoadjuvant Chemo for NSCLC - Clinical Trial
What is the Purpose of this Study?
We are doing this research study to learn about the safety and effectiveness of alirocumab (a cholesterol-lowering drug) when it is combined with cemiplimab (an immunotherapy drug) and preoperative chemotherapy in patients with stage 1B-3A non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who will undergo surgery. This study is important because it might potentially improve outcomes for you and other future patients.
