About this study
In plain language
This study compares sotorasib plus two chemotherapy drugs with pembrolizumab plus two chemotherapy drugs as a first treatment. It is for people with advanced nonsquamous non-small cell lung cancer that has a KRAS G12C gene change and tests negative for PD-L1. The study looks at how long people live and how long they live without their cancer getting worse.
The primary objectives are to compare progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in participants who receive sotorasib with platinum doublet chemotherapy versus participants who receive pembrolizumab with platinum doublet chemotherapy.
Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
Eligibility
Who can join
- Have nonsquamous non-small cell lung cancer confirmed by a tissue or cell test. The cancer must be stage IV or advanced stage IIIB or IIIC.
- The cancer must have a KRAS G12C gene change and test negative for PD-L1, a protein. A central lab must do or confirm the tests.
- Have not received cancer drugs that work throughout the body for cancer that has spread or cannot be cured.
- Be fully active or able to walk and do light work, even if heavy activity is limited.
Who can't join
- Have lung cancer that includes small-cell cancer or large-cell neuroendocrine cancer, or is mostly squamous cell cancer.
- Have a tumor with gene changes for which a targeted drug is locally approved as a first treatment.
- Have cancer that has spread to the brain and causes symptoms, whether treated or not.
- Have a digestive tract disease that prevents you from taking medicine by mouth.
- Had a heart attack within 6 months before treatment group assignment, or have unstable heart rhythms or unstable chest pain from heart disease.
- Have already received a drug that blocks KRAS G12C.
