This is a multi cohort, sequential enrollment clinical trial to determine the safety and tolerability of Dupilumab and Anakinra with PD-(L)1 blockade for patients with relapsed/refractory metastatic NSCLC. For Phase 2, to determine the effect of adding IL-4Ra and IL-1R blockade to PD-(L)1 blocking agents in patients with relapsed/refractory NSCLC, who have progressed on prior PD-(L)1 agents.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* Patients must have a pathologically confirmed diagnosis of NSCLC
* Patients must have progressed (clinically or radiographically) on or following prior therapy with a PD-1 or PD-L1 targeted antibody
* Patients may have only 0 or 1 intervening lines of therapy from the prior PD-(L)1 blocking therapy
* Patient must be willing and able to provide blood samples (12 green-top tubes, roughly 100mL) at the time points indicated in the Study Calendar.
* Patient must be willing and able to have core needle biopsies, or forceps biopsies if clinically feasible by (Goal 3-6 biopsies, final number to be determined by the interventionalist performing the procedure as safe) of tumor prior to initiation of dupilumab and at the on-treatment time point. Should patients undergo pre-treatment or on-treatment biopsy procedure, and inadequate number of biopsies are obtained, they may proceed with initiation/continuation of treatment at the discretion of the investigator and treating physician
* Age ≥ 18 years.
* ECOG 0-2. The exception will be patients carrying long term disability (such as cerebral palsy) where the disability is not acute nor progressive, and unlikely to significantly affect their response to therapy.
* Women of child-bearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception prior to study entry, for the duration of study participation, and for 3 months following completion of therapy. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while…
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
