N-803 + Tislelizumab + Docetaxel
for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
This is a randomized, open-label, phase 3 clinical trial to compare the efficacy and safety of N-803 plus tislelizumab and docetaxel (experimental arm) versus docetaxel monotherapy (control arm). Enrolled participants will be randomized 2:1 to treatment in the experimental arm or the control arm. Participant randomization will be stratified by geographical region (North America vs Europe vs ASIA vs Other), NSCLC histology (squamous vs nonsquamous), and actionable genomic alteration (AGA); (epidermal growth factor receptor \[EGFR\]/anaplastic lymphoma kinase \[ALK\] vs OTHER AGA vs No AGA).

Radiotherapy
for Lung Cancer
This study is being done to answer the following question: Can the chance of lung cancer growing or spreading be lowered by adding targeted radiotherapy to the usual combination of drugs? This study is being done to find out if this approach is better or worse than the usual approach for lung cancer. The usual approach is defined as the care most people get for non-small cell lung cancer.

Osimertinib + Bevacizumab
for Lung Cancer
This phase III trial compares the effect of bevacizumab and osimertinib combination vs. osimertinib alone for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer that has spread outside of the lungs (stage IIIB-IV) and has a change (mutation) in a gene called EGFR. The EGFR protein is involved in cell signaling pathways that control cell division and survival. Sometimes, mutations in the EGFR gene cause EGFR proteins to be made in higher than normal amounts on some types of cancer cells. This causes cancer cells to divide more rapidly. Osimertinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking EGFR that is needed for cell growth in this type of cancer. Bevacizumab is in a class of medications called antiangiogenic agents. It works by stopping the formation of blood vessels that bring oxygen and nutrients to tumor. This may slow the growth and spread of tumor. Giving osimertinib with bevacizumab may control cancer for longer and help patients live longer as compared to osimertinib alone.
