Papaverine in Combination With Chemoradiation for the Treatment of Stage II-III Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

Is NCT05136846 recruiting? Yes, currently enrolling (Jun 2026). This Phase 1 trial studies multiple treatments for locally advanced lung non-small cell carcinoma.

Phase 1RecruitingOhio State University Comprehensive Cancer CenterNCT05136846Data as of Jun 2026

Treatment: Carboplatin · Durvalumab · Paclitaxel · Papaverine · PemetrexedThis phase I trial finds out the best dose, possible benefits and/or side effects of papaverine when given together with chemoradiation intreating patients with stage II-III non-small cell lung cancer. Papaverine targets mitochondrial metabolism to decrease the cancer growth process. Giving papaverine with chemoradiation may work best to treat patients with non-small cell lung cancer.
