About

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of multiple study interventions including novel-novel combinations or novel agents in combination with standard therapy for the treatment of metastatic NSCLC.

Full description

This is a multicentre, open-label study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of various combinations of study interventions in participants with advanced or metastatic NSCLC (mNSCLC).

The study will include a sub-study (sub-study 2) focused on a specific treatment that may include 2 parts -

Part A consisting of one of more safety run-in cohorts to evaluate 2 or more dose levels to identify the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) unless RP2D has been established then Part A will not be required; and
Part B consisting of one or more expansion cohorts.

The originally planned Sub-study 1 was withdrawn (cancelled) and will not be conducted.

Sub-study 2 will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and anti-tumour activity of rilvegostomig plus standard of care (SoC) platinum-based chemotherapy, with or without ramucirumab.

Inclusion criteria

Participants with confirmed squamous or non-squamous NSCLC with a current Stage IV mNSCLC.
Provision of acceptable archival tumour tissue (or fresh tumour tissue biopsy if archival tumour tissue is not available and if clinically feasible) is mandatory at screening.
Measurable disease as defined by at least one lesion that can be accurately measured at baseline as ≥ 10 mm at the longest diameter.
Minimum life expectancy of 12 weeks in the opinion of the investigator.
Adequate organ and marrow function.
Contraceptive use by male or female participants should be consistent with local regulations regarding the methods of contraception for those participating in clinical studies.

Inclusion Criteria for Sub Study 2:

Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) tumour proportion score (TPS) ≥ 1% (per local report).

Exclusion criteria

Any severe or uncontrolled systemic diseases, including uncontrolled hypertension, and active bleeding diseases, ongoing or active known infection; interstitial lung disease/pneumonitis (of any grade); unstable and/or symptomatic venous thromboembolism, serious chronic gastrointestinal conditions associated with diarrhoea, active non-infectious skin disease or substance abuse.
Has had a prior stem cell, bone marrow, allogenic tissue, or solid organ transplant.
Has an active autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment in the past 5 years.
History of clinically significant arrhythmia, cardiomyopathy of any aetiology or symptomatic congestive heart failure.
History of another primary malignancy except for malignancy treated with curative intent with no known active disease ≥ 2 years before the first dose of study intervention or presence of small cell and neuroendocrine histology components.
Persistent toxicities (common terminology criteria for adverse events [CTCAE] ≥ Grade 2) caused by previous anti-cancer therapy, excluding alopecia.
Spinal cord compression or symptomatic brain metastases.
Treatment with any other anti-cancer agents or immunosuppressive medication.
Palliative radiotherapy with a limited field of radiation within 2 weeks or 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.

Exclusion Criteria for Sub Study 2:

Known active hepatitis A.
Acute hepatitis B infection (anti-hepatitis B core antibody [HBc] immunoglobulin M [IgM] positive) or chronic hepatitis B infection with HBV DNA ≥ 2000 IU/mL.
