Trial Summary

What is the purpose of this trial?This is a phase III randomized open label study designed to compare JDQ443 as monotherapy to docetaxel in participants with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring a KRAS G12C mutation who have been previously treated with a platinum-based chemotherapy and immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy either in sequence or in combination.

Eligibility Criteria

This trial is for adults with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific mutation (KRAS G12C) and who have already tried platinum-based chemo and immune therapy. They can't join if they've had certain lung conditions, other mutations like EGFR or ALK, active brain metastases, or previous treatment with docetaxel or KRAS G12C inhibitors.

Inclusion Criteria

You have at least one spot that can be measured or seen on a scan at the screening visit.
My cancer has a KRAS G12C mutation.
You have at least one spot that can be measured and evaluated by doctors.

My cancer has EGFR mutation or ALK rearrangement.
I have cancer that has spread to my brain or spinal cord.
