Honokiol in Early-Stage Resectable Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Is NCT06566443 recruiting? Yes, currently enrolling (May 2026). This Phase 1 trial studies Honokiol for carcinoma, non-small-cell lung.

Phase 1RecruitingThe Methodist Hospital Research InstituteNCT06566443Data as of May 2026

Treatment: HonokiolThis is a Phase I Trial evaluating the safety of the dietary supplement honokiol for lung cancer chemoprevention. Female or male patients aged 18 years, or older, with early stage lung cancer who have been scheduled for curative surgery will be eligible for participation in the study. The study will only enroll patients with stage I lung cancers less than 4 cm, given the recent approval of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and nivolumab for stage IB tumors \> 4 cm. Approximately, 15 patients will be enrolled in the study. They will take the study drug, honokiol, for 2 weeks prior to the surgery. The primary endpoint will be the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of honokiol.
