Summary

This trial will study whether a combination of three drugs is safe and effective in treating patients with HER2 positive lung cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with advanced HER2+ non-squamous NSCLC who have seen their cancer progress after 1 or 2 treatments. They must be relatively healthy, able to perform daily activities without significant assistance, and not have certain heart conditions, infections like HIV or hepatitis, previous bad reactions to immunotherapy, or specific lung issues.
What is being tested?
DESTINY-Lung03 is testing the safety of T-DXd combined with immunotherapies (MEDI5752/Durvalumab) and chemotherapy options (Cisplatin/Carboplatin/Pemetrexed). The study will also look at how effective these combinations are in treating patients whose tumors overexpress HER2.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include allergic reactions to medication components, fatigue, nausea from chemotherapy drugs; immune-related effects such as inflammation in organs due to immunotherapy agents; and potential blood cell count changes leading to increased infection risk.
