Summary

This phase II trial studies how well targeted therapy works in treating patients with incurable non-small cell lung cancer with a genetic mutation. Giving drugs that target other genetic mutations or other specific proteins may work better when a patient has cancer caused by a driver mutation and the treatment that targets that mutation stops working.

Eligible Conditions
  • Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
  • Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor

Timeline

Study Objectives

Study objectives can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary study objectives
Objective Response Rate in Patients With High PD-L1 Expressing Cancers After Failure of Targeted Therapy Defined as Complete or Partial Response According to the Investigator's Assessment
Secondary study objectives
Number of Mutations in Secondary Genes for Patients With PD-L1 Expression < 50%
Number of Participants With Adverse Events Measured Using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events Version 4.0

Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Arm III (kinase inhibitor, targeted therapy, other treatment)Experimental Treatment5 Interventions
Patients receive tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy PO targeting initial oncogenic driver, a drug targeting the secondary mutation, or other treatment for about 3 weeks.
Group II: Arm II (kinase inhibitor, chemotherapy, immunotherapy)Experimental Treatment4 Interventions
Patients receive tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy PO targeting the initial oncogenic driver or other treatment for about 3 weeks.
Group III: Arm I (nivolumab, pembrolizumab)Experimental Treatment3 Interventions
Patients receive nivolumab IV over 60 minutes every 2 weeks or pembrolizumab IV every 3 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
