This clinical trial is testing a new treatment approach using sotorasib combined with chemotherapy drugs cisplatin or carboplatin and pemetrexed before surgery in patients with a specific type of lung cancer that can be surgically removed. The study aims to see if this combination is safe and more effective than chemotherapy alone.

Patient Parameters

Program Overview

This study is exploring whether a combination of sotorasib and chemotherapy drugs (cisplatin or carboplatin and pemetrexed) given before surgery can improve outcomes for patients with a specific type of lung cancer that has a KRAS p.G12C mutation. The main goal is to determine if this treatment can be safely administered and if it leads to better tumor response compared to traditional chemotherapy alone.

Description

The study focuses on patients with a specific type of lung cancer that can be surgically removed and has a KRAS p.G12C mutation. The treatment involves giving sotorasib along with chemotherapy drugs cisplatin or carboplatin and pemetrexed before surgery. Researchers aim to see if this combination can improve the rate of major pathologic response, which means a significant reduction in cancer cells in the tumor after treatment.

The study will also assess the safety and tolerability of this treatment combination. Secondary goals include evaluating how well the treatment works in terms of overall response rate, survival without cancer recurrence, and overall survival. Researchers will also explore how the treatment affects certain biological markers and the immune system's response to the cancer.

Participants will receive four cycles of the treatment before surgery. The study will monitor the effects of the treatment on the tumor and any side effects experienced by the participants. The results will help determine if this approach could be a better option for patients with this type of lung cancer.
