LUNAR-2 Phase 3 Trial of NovoTTF-200T with Pembrolizumab and Platinum Chemotherapy for Advanced Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are evaluating the use of Tumor Treating Fields TTFields delivered by the NovoTTF-200T device together with pembrolizumab and platinum-based chemotherapy in patients with advanced metastatic non-small cell lung cancer NSCLC. This phase 3 randomized study, called LUNAR-2, aims to assess overall survival and progression-free survival, comparing this combination treatment to pembrolizumab and chemotherapy alone. Secondary goals include analyzing outcomes based on lung cancer subtypes and PD-L1 expression levels. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups one group receives TTFields using the portable NovoTTF-200T device along with pembrolizumab and platinum-based chemotherapy, while the other group receives pembrolizumab and chemotherapy without TTFields. The NovoTTF-200T delivers electric fields continuously at 150kHz to disrupt cancer cell division. Treatments are administered concurrently during the study period. Throughout the study, participants will be monitored for survival outcomes up to six years, including overall survival and progression-free survival measured by standard criteria. Researchers will also track response rates, duration of response, disease control rates, and adverse events. Participants will undergo regular evaluations to assess treatment effects and safety, with follow-up continuing for up to six years after treatment begins.
