Summary

This trial is testing the safety and effectiveness of using a combination of two drugs, carfilzomib and sotorasib, to treat patients with a specific type of lung cancer called KRAS

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific mutation called KRAS G12C. Participants should have measurable disease and may have had prior treatments, but there are certain criteria they must meet to join.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the combination of two drugs, Carfilzomib and Sotorasib, to see if they're safe together, what the best dose might be, and how well they work against this type of lung cancer. It includes tests like CT scans, MRIs, biopsies, and heart checks.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects from Carfilzomib could include fatigue, nausea, shortness of breath among others. Sotorasib may cause diarrhea or liver issues. The study will monitor patients closely for any adverse reactions.

1Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Treatment (carfilzomib, sotorasib)Experimental Treatment7 Interventions
Patients receive carfilzomib IV over 30 minutes on days 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, and 16 of each cycle and sotorasib PO QD on days 1-28 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also undergo ECHO at screening and undergo CT or MRI and collection of blood samples at screening and on study. Patients may undergo optional biopsies on study.
