Summary

This trial compares two medicines to treat advanced NSCLC with KRAS G12C mutation after other treatments.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific mutation (KRAS G12C) and who have already tried platinum-based chemo and immune therapy. They can't join if they've had certain lung conditions, other mutations like EGFR or ALK, active brain metastases, or previous treatment with docetaxel or KRAS G12C inhibitors.
What is being tested?
The study compares JDQ443 alone to the chemotherapy drug docetaxel in patients whose lung cancer has worsened despite prior treatments. It's an open-label phase III trial where participants are randomly assigned to one of the two drugs.
What are the potential side effects?
JDQ443 side effects aren't fully known yet but may be similar to other targeted therapies which include diarrhea, skin issues, and liver enzyme changes. Docetaxel can cause hair loss, nausea, fatigue, low blood cell counts increasing infection risk.
