NSCLC, Recurrent, NSCLC Stage IV
Conditions
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to see if adding pirfenidone to atezolizumab will increase anti tumor activity and reduce treatment resistance in stage 4 and recurrent non- small cell lung cancer participants.
Interventions
Atezolizumab is given as an intravenous infusion at 1200 mg every 3 weeks. Pirfenidone is taken by mouth 3 times a day with the dose increasing every 2 week until day 30
