A Study of Pembrolizumab in Combination With Investigational Agents in Pediatric and Young Adult Participants With Hematologic Malignancies or Solid Tumors (MK-9999-01B/LIGHTBEAM-U01)
Sponsor: Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC
ClinicalTrials ID:NCT06395090
This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of pembrolizumab with investigational agents in pediatric patients with specific hematologic malignancies or solid tumors. Eligible participants must have relapsed/refractory cHL or tumors with MSI-H/dMMR or TMB-H. Interventions include IV infusions of pembrolizumab, favezelimab, and vibostolimab, alone or in combination.

Program Overview
This study is a rolling arm study of pembrolizumab in combination with investigational agents in pediatric participants with relapsed or refractory classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) solid tumors with microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H)/mismatch repair deficient (dMMR) or tumor mutational burden-high (TMB-H). This study will have 2 parts: a safety lead-in to demonstrate a tolerable safety profile and confirm a preliminary recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) (Part 1) followed by an efficacy evaluation (Part 2). Participants will be assigned to a treatment arm (either Part 1 or Part 2) that is open for enrollment.
There will be no hypothesis testing in this study.
Description
The master screening protocol is MK-9999-U01.
