Objective response rate (ORR)
Time frame: Through study completion, an average of 4 years
Confirmed ORR is defined as the proportion of participants who have a confirmed CR or confirmed PR, as determined by Investigator per RECIST 1.1.
The number of participants with adverse events/serious adverse events
Time frame: Through study completion, an average of 4 years
Number of participants with adverse events and with serious adverse events including abnormal clinical observations, abnormal Electrocardiogram (ECG) parameters, abnormal laboratory assessments and abnormal vital signs that changed from baseline.
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.
Inclusion criteria
- Age ≥18 at the time of signing the ICF.
- Provision of tumor sample to assess the PD-L1 expression (if applicable).
- ECOG performance status of 0 or 1.
- Measurable disease according to RECIST 1.1 (variations of RECIST 1.1 if applicable).
- Life expectancy ≥ 12 weeks.
- Adequate organ and bone marrow function.
- Body weight \> 35 kg
- Capable of giving signed informed consent.
Exclusion criteria
- Spinal cord compression.
- For sub-study 1,2,3,4, brain metastases unless asymptomatic, stable, and not requiring steroids for at least 14 days prior to start of study intervention. For sub-study 5, participants with untreated or progressive brain metastases.
- For sub-study 1,2,3, participants with primary neuroendocrine, mesenchymal, sarcomatoid histologies, or other histologies not mentioned as part of the inclusion criteria.
- Have not recovered (ie, ≤ Grade 1 or at baseline) from an AE due to a previously administered anti-cancer therapy.
- For sub-study 2, have had radiotherapy within 2 weeks prior to enrollment.
- For sub-study 3,4, participants have contraindications to any of the following drugs: 5-FU, paclitaxel and carboplatin
- History of another primary malignancy except for a) Malignancy treated with curative intent with no known active disease ≥2 years before the first dose of study intervention and of low potential risk for recurrence; b) Adequately treated nonmelanoma skin cancer or lentigo maligna, or carcinoma in situ without evidence of disease.
- Any evidence of diseases, and/or history of organ transplant or allogenic stem cell transplant, which makes it undesirable for the participant to participate in the study or that would jeopardize compliance with the protocol.
- Evidence of the following infections: active infection including tuberculosis; known HIV infection. that is not well controlled; active or uncontrolled HBV or HCV; or active hepatitis A.
- History of active primary immunodeficiency or active or prior documented autoimmune or inflammatory disorders.
- Participants who are candidates for curative therapy.
- Prior exposure to any immune-mediated therapy.
- Current or prior use of immunosuppressive medication within 14 days before the first dose of the study intervention is excluded. The following are exceptions to this criterion: a) Intranasal, inhaled, topical steroids, or local steroid injections (eg, intraarticular injection); b) Steroids as premedication for hypersensitivity reactions (eg, CT scan premedication or chemotherapy premedication) or a single dose for palliative purpose (eg, pain control).
- For sub-study 1,2,3,4, participants are ineligible if they have received any anti-cancer therapy within 28 days prior to the first dose of study intervention or within 5 half-lives of the respective agent, whichever is longer.
- Any concurrent chemotherapy except study intervention, radiotherapy, investigational, biologic, or hormonal therapy for cancer treatment.
- Radiotherapy treatment with a wide field of radiation or to more than 30% of the bone marrow within 4 weeks, prior to the first dose of study intervention.
- Major surgical procedures within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of the study intervention or still recovering from prior surgery.
- Receipt of live attenuated vaccine within 30 days prior to the first dose of the study intervention.
- Participants with a known allergy or hypersensitivity to any study intervention, on any excipients of any study intervention.
- For substudy 5: Participants with any prior systemic therapy, non-palliative radiotherapy, radical pleuropneumonectomy for pleural mesothelioma.

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.
