Summary

This trial will study the safety and effectiveness of a new cancer drug when used alone or with another drug and chemotherapy.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who can't have surgery or chemoradiation. They must have progressed after recent treatment, be able to provide a tumor biopsy, and not have certain genetic alterations in their cancer cells. People with prior severe immune-related side effects from similar drugs, active autoimmune diseases, interstitial lung disease/pneumonitis, other cancers within the last 3 years (with some exceptions), CNS metastases requiring steroids/anticonvulsants are excluded.
What is being tested?
The study tests Datopotamab Deruxtecan (Dato-DXd) combined with Pembrolizumab and possibly platinum chemotherapy (Carboplatin or Cisplatin). It aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of this combination therapy in treating NSCLC that has spread beyond its original site.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include reactions at the infusion site, fatigue, nausea, hair loss from chemotherapy; immune-related issues like inflammation of organs due to Pembrolizumab; and possible damage to normal cells by Dato-DXd.
