Symbiotic-Lung-01 : A Study to Learn About the Study Medicine Called PF-08634404 in Combination With Chemotherapy in Adult Participants With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

What this study is about

This study is being done to find out if a new medicine called PF-08634404, when given with chemotherapy, works better than the present standard treatment (pembrolizumab with chemotherapy) for adults with a type of lung cancer called non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that is either locally advanced (spread to nearby tissues) or has spread to other parts of the body.

View original scientific description

This study is being done to find out if a new medicine called PF-08634404, when given with chemotherapy, works better than the present standard treatment (pembrolizumab with chemotherapy) for adults with a type of lung cancer called non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that is either locally advanced (spread to nearby tissues) or has spread to other parts of the body. To join the study, participants must meet the following conditions: * Be 18 years or older. * Have locally advanced (Stage IIIB/IIIC) or metastatic (Stage IV) squamous or non-squamous NSCLC. * Is not a candidate for complete surgical resection or curative chemoradiotherapy. * Do not have known actionable genomic alterations * Be treatment naïve for advanced or metastatic disease Participants in this study will be assigned to two different parts of the study depending on their type of tumor: participants with squamous NSCLC will be assigned to Part 1, while participants with non-squamous NSCLC will be assigned to Part 2. Each participant will be randomly assigned (like a flip of the coin) to one of two treatment groups in a blinded fashion: * Part 1 - Arm A or Part 2 - Arm C (Experimental Group): Will receive a new study medicine called PF-08634404 along with a kind of chemotherapy specific to the type of tumor. * Part 1 - Arm B or Part 2 - Arm D (Control Group): Will receive an approved medicine called pembrolizumab along with a kind of chemotherapy specific to the type of tumor. Participants will receive their assigned treatment through intravenous (IV) infusions, which means the medicine is given directly into a vein. The treatment will be given in cycles, participants will receive PF-08634404 or Pembrolizumab in combination with chemotherapy followed by maintenance with either PF-08634404 or Pembrolizumab monotherapy (Part 1) or PF-08634404 or Pembrolizumab in combination with a chemotherapeutic drug (Part 2). Participants will continue receiving treatment if it is helping and not experiencing serious side effects. The study will include regular visits for: * Treatment and health checks: while participant continues receiving treatment. * Tests to monitor how cancer responds: every 6 weeks during the first 48 weeks, then every 12 weeks thereafter.

Who can participate

This study lists these criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov. A study coordinator reviews eligibility during screening — this page does not determine whether you qualify.

Documented negative results for EGFR, ALK, and ROS1 AGAs are required for participants with non-squamous histology.
  • Known active CNS lesions are excluded. Participants with definitively treated brain metastases (surgery and/or radiotherapy) may be eligible. Clinically inactive brain metastases of longest diameter \< 1 cm are permitted.
  • Participants with clinically significant risk of hemorrhage or fistula are excluded.
  • Participants with any history of another malignancy within 3 years before the first dose of study intervention, or any evidence of residual disease from a previously diagnosed malignancy.
  • Unresolved toxicities from prior anti-tumor therapy, that did not recover to NCI CTCAE v5.0 Grade 0 or 1.
  • Known to have a history of a severe allergy to any component of the study intervention, or a history of severe allergic reaction to chimeric or humanized antibody.
  • History of allogeneic organ / hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
  • Participants with any of the following respiratory conditions:
  • Evidence of noninfectious or drug-induced interstitial lung disease (ILD) or pneumonitis
  • Grade ≥3 pulmonary disease unrelated to underlying malignancy
  • History of uncontrolled comorbidities within 6 months prior to the first dose including uncontrolled cardiac and cerebrovascular conditions, hypertension, diabetes, significant vascular disease or arterial/severe venous thromboembolic events.
  • Major surgery \< 4 weeks or minor surgery \< 3 days prior to first dose of study intervention.
  • History of severe bleeding tendency or coagulation dysfunction
  • History of esophageal varices, severe ulcers, unhealed wounds, gastrointestinal perforation, abdominal fistula, gastrointestinal obstruction, intra-abdominal abscess, or acute gastrointestinal bleeding within 6 months prior to the first dose.
  • Participants with acute, chronic or symptomatic infections including participants positive for active HIV, hepatitis B virus (HBV), or Hepatitis C virus (HCV).
  • Participants with history of immunodeficiency
  • Any medical or psychiatric condition including recent (within the past year) or active suicidal ideation/behavior (in the past 5 years) or laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk of study participation or make the participant inappropriate for the study.
  • Previous systemic anti-tumor therapy including:
  • Prior systemic therapy, including anti-PD-(L)1 therapy, for locally advanced, unresectable, or metastatic NSCLC.
  • Previous treatment with immunotherapy
  • Prior radiotherapy \> 30 Gy to the lung \< 6 months of first dose of study intervention
  • Palliative local therapy \< 2 weeks before the first dose of study intervention;
  • Non-specific immunomodulatory therapy \< 2 weeks before the first dose.
  • Prior systemic anti-angiogenic therapy
  • Prior immune-related AE that led to anti-PD-(L)1 treatment discontinuation, adverse events from prior immunotherapy not improved to Grade 1 before screening, or required treatment with systemic immunosuppressive therapy.
  • Prior and concomitant therapy:
  • therapeutic oral or parenteral anticoagulants or thrombolytic agents \< 10 days to the first dose.
  • chronic antiplatelet therapy \<7 days to randomization.
  • live or attenuated live vaccine \< 4 weeks to the first dose.

Frequently asked questions

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.

Is it safe to participate?

Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.

Will I be compensated?

Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.

Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?

When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.

Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?

Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.

How long does a clinical trial last?

Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
