Study on MK-1084 with Other Treatments for Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Sponsor: Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC

Sponsor score: 40

ClinicalTrials ID:NCT07286149

This clinical trial is testing a new targeted therapy, MK-1084, to see if it can help treat advanced or metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The study aims to find out if MK-1084 is safe and effective when used with other treatments.

Patient Parameters

Program Overview

Researchers are conducting a study to determine if MK-1084, a targeted therapy, can effectively treat advanced or metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Targeted therapies work by controlling how specific cancer cells grow and spread. The study's main goals are to assess the safety of MK-1084 and how well patients tolerate it when combined with other treatments, as well as to see how many patients experience a reduction or disappearance of their cancer.

Description

This study is part of a larger research project called the KEYMAKER-U01 protocol. It focuses on testing the safety and effectiveness of MK-1084, a targeted therapy, in combination with other treatments for patients with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The study will evaluate how well patients tolerate the treatment and whether it can help shrink or eliminate tumors.
