Primary outcome measures

Part A and Part B: Number of participants with adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs)

Time frame: Approximately 46 months

To assess the safety and tolerability and determine RP2D of the combination of novel anti-cancer agents.

Part A: Number of partcipants with dose limiting toxicity (DLT)

Time frame: Approximately 46 months

To assess the safety and tolerability and determine RP2D of the combination of novel anti-cancer agents.

Part B: Objective response (OR)

Time frame: Approximately 46 months

The OR is defined as a best overall response (BOR) of confirmed complete response (CR) or confirmed partial response (PR).

  • Has a bowel obstruction, history or presence of inflammatory enteropathy or extensive intestinal resection.
  • Has cirrhosis at a level of Child-Pugh B (or worse), or cirrhosis (any degree) and a history of hepatic encephalopathy or clinically meaningful ascites resulting from cirrhosis.
  • Prior systemic therapy received for advanced or mNSCLC.
  • Prior exposure to an anti-T-cell immunoreceptor with Ig and Immunoreceptor Tyrosine-based Inhibition Motif domains (TIGIT) therapy or immune-oncology agent such as anti-programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1), anti-PD-L1, or anti-cytotoxic T-lymphocyte associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4), or any other anti-cancer therapy targeting immune-regulatory receptors or mechanisms.

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.
