See full description

Who is the study for?

Adults over 18 with advanced non-squamous NSCLC who haven't had systemic cancer treatment, have specific levels of TROP2 and PD-L1 proteins, no major gene mutations treatable by approved therapies, good performance status, and no significant health issues like uncontrolled heart disease or active infections. Pregnant women and those with certain lung diseases or recent vaccinations are excluded.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The trial is testing the effectiveness of Dato-DXd combined with pembrolizumab versus pembrolizumab with pemetrexed and platinum chemo in first-line treatment for advanced NSCLC. It aims to see which combination works better for patients who meet specific biological criteria.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Potential side effects include reactions at the infusion site, fatigue, nausea, blood cell count changes leading to increased infection risk or bleeding problems. There's also a chance of lung issues like pneumonitis and other organ inflammation due to immune system activation.
