View original scientific description
This is a study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of EIK1001 administered intravenously in combination with pembrolizumab and histologically appropriate chemotherapy for patients with stage 4 NSCLC.
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
- Participant must be ≥ 18 years old at the time of signing the informed consent.
- Participant has a life expectancy of at least 3 months.
- Participant has histologically or cytologically confirmed Stage 4 NSCLC predominately squamous or non-squamous) and is considered a candidate for standard therapy with pembrolizumab and chemotherapy. Participants with NSCLC-NOS (not otherwise specified) will be considered as non-squamous NSCLC.
- Participant must have documented evidence that mutation-directed therapy is not indicated, based on the absence of tumor-activating mutations or fusions (e.g., but not limited to EGFR, ALK, RET, ROS1, BRAF) for which approved first-line targeted therapies are available to the participant in their respective country.
- Participant has at least 1 lesion with measurable disease at Baseline according to RECIST 1.1 as determined locally. Lesions situated in a previously irradiated area are considered measurable if progression has been shown in such lesions.
- Participant has not received prior systemic therapy for advanced/metastatic NSCLC. Note: Participants who received adjuvant or neoadjuvant treatment (after surgery and/or radiation therapy) and developed recurrent or metastatic disease more than 1 year after completing therapy are eligible.
- Participant has an ECOG Performance Status of 0 to 1 assessed no more than 10 days before start of the treatment.
- Participant has tumor tissue available for PD-L1 testing from a site that was not radiated prior to biopsy, and was obtained, ideally, after diagnosis of metastatic disease. Biopsies obtained prior to receipt of adjuvant/neoadjuvant chemotherapy will be permitted if recent biopsy is not feasible (provided the specimen is \< 3yrs old). Key
Exclusion criteria
- has small cell elements present histologically and/or the tumors are not predominantly non-squamous or squamous NSCLC.
- is currently actively enrolled in or has recently participated in a study of an investigational agent and received investigational therapy within 4 weeks or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) of administration of EIK1001 or placebo.
- has had major surgery (\< 3 weeks prior to the first dose of study intervention administration).
- has received a live-virus vaccination within 30 days of the start of study intervention initiation.
- has received radiation therapy within 7 days of the first dose of study intervention administration.
- has completed palliative radiotherapy within 7 days of the first dose of study intervention administration.

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.
