Purpose of this Study
We are doing this research study to learn about the safety and effectiveness of alirocumab (a cholesterol-lowering drug) when it is combined with cemiplimab (an immunotherapy drug) and preoperative chemotherapy in patients with stage 1B-3A non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who will undergo surgery. This study is important because it might potentially improve outcomes for you and other future patients.

- Have a diagnosis of stage1B-3A NSCLC
- Meet specific diagnostic criteria relating to your disease
- Are a candidate for surgery to treat your disease
- Agree to have your blood drawn for research
