Phase 3: testing Calderasib for Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

This is a study evaluating the how well it works and safety of calderasib with pembrolizumab as first-line treatment in participants with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with identified Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog G12C (KRAS G12C) mutation and programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) tumor proportion score (TPS) ≥50%. There is one primary study hypothesis: Combination of calderasib and pembrolizumab is superior to dummy treatment (placebo) plus pembrolizumab with respect to progression free survival (PFS) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) by blinded independent central review (BICR).

Official registry: https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06345729 · Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC · enrollment listed as 348

Phase 3: this treatment already looked useful in smaller studies. Now it is tested in a large group, often against standard care or a dummy treatment, to see if it should be approved.

Phase labels are FDA/ICH categories applied to the registry Phase field. They are not a finding that this study succeeded.
