Study Summary

This trial compares the effects of two treatments for metastatic lung cancer on overall survival, progression free survival, response, and safety.

Who is the study for?
Adults with metastatic squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have not had previous treatments for their advanced disease. Participants must have a certain level of PD-L1 expression, be in good physical condition (ECOG score 0 or 1), and expect to live at least three more months. They cannot join if they have small cell lung carcinoma, non-squamous NSCLC, major blood vessel involvement by the tumor, or known specific genetic alterations.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
This Phase 3 trial is testing Ivonescimab combined with chemotherapy against Pembrolizumab with chemotherapy as first-line treatment options for metastatic squamous NSCLC. The main goal is to see which treatment helps patients live longer without their cancer getting worse.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions at the injection site, immune-related issues such as inflammation in various organs due to an overactive immune response, fatigue, and complications related to chemotherapy like nausea and low blood counts.
