Study of Pembrolizumab (MK-3475) Monotherapy Versus Sacituzumab Govitecan in Combination With Pembrolizumab for Participants With Metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) With Programmed Cell Death Ligand 1 (PD-L1) Tumor Proportion Score (TPS) ≥50% (MK-3475-D46)

Description

The purpose of this study is to compare pembrolizumab (MK-3475) in combination with sacituzumab govitecan with pembrolizumab alone with respect to progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) as assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR) among adults with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) tumor proportion score (TPS) ≥50%).

Conditions

Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

For general information about clinical research, read Learn About Studies.

Eligibility Criteria

  • * Has a histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)
  • * Has confirmation that epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), anaplastic lymphoma kinase 1 (ALK-1), or ROS proto-oncogene 1 (ROS-1)-directed therapy is not indicated as primary therapy
  • * Has provided tumor tissue that demonstrates PD-L1 tumor proportion score (TPS) ≥50% of tumor cells as assessed by immunohistochemistry (IHC) at a central laboratory
  • * Has a life expectancy of at least 3 months
  • * Has history of a second malignancy, unless potentially curative treatment has been completed with no evidence of malignancy for 3 years
  • * Has received prior systemic chemotherapy or other targeted or biological antineoplastic therapy for their metastatic NSCLC
  • * Has previously received treatment with Topoisomerase 1 inhibitors or Trop-2 targeted therapy
  • * Has received prior therapy with an anti-programmed cell death 1 protein (anti-PD-1), anti-programmed cell death ligand 1 (anti-PD-L1), or anti anti- programmed cell death ligand 2 (PD-L2) agent or with an agent directed to another stimulatory or coinhibitory T-cell receptor
  • * Has received prior radiotherapy within 2 weeks of start of study intervention or has radiation-related toxicities requiring corticosteroids
  • * Has received radiation therapy to the lung that is \>30 Gray (Gy) within 6 months of the first dose of study intervention
  • * Has received a live or live-attenuated vaccine within 30 days before the first dose of study intervention
  • * Has received an investigational agent or has used an investigational device within 4 weeks before study intervention administration
  • * Has cardiac disease
  • * Myocardial infarction or unstable angina pectoris within 6 months of enrollment
  • * History of serious ventricular arrhythmia, high-grade atrioventricular block, or other cardiac arrhythmias requiring antiarrhythmic medications; history of QT interval prolongation
  • * New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class III or greater congestive heart failure or left ventricular ejection fraction of \<40%
  • * Has active chronic inflammatory bowel disease
  • * Has diagnosis of immunodeficiency or is receiving chronic systemic steroid therapy or any other form of immunosuppressive therapy within 7 days prior the first dose of study medication
  • * Has known active central nervous system (CNS) metastases and/or carcinomatous meningitis
  • * Has severe hypersensitivity (≥Grade 3) to pembrolizumab or sacituzumab govitecan and/or any of their excipients
