Summary

This trial investigates if combining cabozantinib and atezolizumab can increase benefits for NSCLC patients with low PD-L1 expression, esp. <1%.

Who is the study for?
Adults with advanced/metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and low PD-L1 expression (<1%) who haven't benefited from anti-PD-1/L1 therapy. They must have recovered from previous treatments, not be pregnant or breastfeeding, use contraception, and have no other cancers that could affect the trial. HIV-positive patients can join if stable on antiretroviral therapy.
What is being tested?
The study tests a combination of Cabozantinib (a drug that inhibits multiple kinases) and Atezolizumab (an immunotherapy drug) to see if they work better together for NSCLC patients with low PD-L1 expression levels than current therapies.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include liver issues, high blood pressure, hand-foot syndrome (redness and pain in hands/feet), fatigue, mouth sores, hair color changes, taste changes, digestive problems like diarrhea or nausea; also increased risk of infections due to immune system effects.
