Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of Adagrasib alone and in combination with pembrolizumab for patients with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer NSCLC that has a KRAS G12C mutation. The study includes a Phase 2 portion that assesses these treatments in patients with various PD-L1 tumor proportion scores TPS and a Phase 3 portion that compares Adagrasib plus pembrolizumab to pembrolizumab alone in patients with higher PD-L1 TPS 50%. The goal is to understand how these treatments work as first-line therapy in this patient population. Treatment involves Adagrasib administered orally twice daily BID either alone or combined with pembrolizumab, which is given intravenously at 200 mg every three weeks. Phase 2 includes three cohorts based on PD-L1 status and treatment type, while Phase 3 randomly assigns patients to receive either the combination or pembrolizumab alone. Patients with unresectable or metastatic squamous or nonsquamous NSCLC are included, with specific brain metastases criteria for Phase 3 participants. Participants will be monitored over periods of up to 22 months in Phase 2 and 36 months in Phase 3. Assessments include measuring treatment efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics, quality of life, and tumor response using RECIST 1.1 criteria. Regular evaluations involve imaging, clinical exams, and patient-reported outcomes. The study aims to provide detailed information on treatment tolerability and effectiveness during and after therapy.
