Summary

This trial is testing whether adding selumetinib to docetaxel can help patients with advanced lung cancer live longer compared to those who just receive docetaxel.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that's KRAS mutation positive. They must have had one failed anti-cancer therapy but can't have had MEK inhibitors, docetaxel regimens, other recent cancer treatments, or certain types of radiation.
What is being tested?
The study tests the effectiveness of Selumetinib combined with Docetaxel against a placebo plus Docetaxel in patients with KRAS mutated NSCLC. It will also evaluate how the body processes the drugs, their safety, and patient-reported outcomes.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions to drug infusion, fatigue, digestive issues like nausea and diarrhea, blood disorders such as low white blood cell counts which may increase infection risk.
