Trabedersen (OT-101) With Pembrolizumab for Newly Diagnosed Advanced NSCLC and Positive PD-L1

Sponsor: University of Nebraska

Sponsor score: 40

ClinicalTrials ID:NCT06579196

This trial evaluates the safety, dosage, and efficacy of OT-101 with Pembrolizumab in advanced NSCLC with PD-L1 ≥1%. Participants receive OT-101 biweekly and Pembrolizumab every 6 weeks. Eligibility includes age ≥19, ECOG ≤2, and adequate organ function. Trabedersen targets TGF-β2, while Pembrolizumab is an anti-PD-1 antibody.

Patient Parameters

Program Overview

The goal of this clinical trial is to: 1) evaluate the safety and recommended dose of the drug OT-101/Trabedersen when combined with Pembrolizumab and 2) determine the efficacy of the combination therapy in adults with certain types of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer. The main question(s) it aims to answer are:

  • What medical problems to participants have when taking OT101 together with Pembrolizumab?
  • What is the correct dose of OT-101 to use when evaluating the safety and efficacy of the combination therapy?
  • Does the combination therapy delay progression or relapse of the participant's Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer?

Participants will:

  • Receive intravenous OT-101/Trabedersen for 4 days once every 2 weeks. Clinic visits are required to receive and disconnect the infusion.
  • Receive intravenous Pembrolizumab once every 6 weeks.

  • Receive intravenous Pembrolizumab once every 6 weeks.

In Phase I, dose escalation/de-escalation of OT101/Trabedersen is performed using a BOIN design to determine dose limiting toxicity (DLT) and the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) when combined with Pembrolizumab.

In Phase II, subjects receive the RP2D of OT101/Trabedersen together with Pembrolizumab until disease relapse, progression [as determined by immune Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours (iRECIST) criteria], or death.
