Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer study: Adagrasib vs Pembrolizumab

Official title Phase 2 Trial of Adagrasib Monotherapy and in Combination With Pembrolizumab and a Phase 3 Trial of Adagrasib in Combination in Patients With a KRAS G12C Mutation KRYSTAL-7

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04613596

What this study is testing

What is Adagrasib plus Pembrolizumab?

This is an investigational combination of two medicines being studied as a potential treatment for advanced non-small cell lung cancer. Adagrasib is designed to block a specific protein change in cancer cells, while pembrolizumab is designed to help the immune system recognize and attack cancer cells.

Also referred to as MRTX849, Keytruda.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment. It is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
This study is testing whether a new drug works well and is safe. It also checks if adding it to another drug helps more than the second drug alone.
Who it's for
You may be able to join if you have advanced lung cancer with a KRAS G12C gene change.
What's involved
You would take a new medicine called adagrasib. You might also get a drug called pembrolizumab. You would get regular check-ups and tests.
Time commitment
The study lasts for a long time with regular visits to the clinic.
