You likely can't join if

  • Leptomeningeal metastasis (based on MRI or Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) cytology, if strong suspicion despite negative MRI, CSF analysis should be done)

  • Any other medical condition (such as active infection including known hepatitis or HIV, treated or untreated), which in the opinion of the Investigator represents an unacceptable risk for participation in the study.
  • Any medical condition or prior surgical resection that may affect the absorption of the investigational drug. Examples of medical conditions that may affect investigational drug absorption include (but are not limited to) inflammatory bowel disease (i.e. ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease) and gastrointestinal disease such as ulcerative diseases, uncontrolled nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and malabsorption syndrome.
  • Participants who are taking a prohibited medication (strong CYP3A inducers) that cannot be discontinued at least seven days prior to the first dose of study treatment and for the duration of the study
  • Use of any live vaccines against infectious diseases within four weeks of initiation of study treatment.
  • Participant is concurrently using other anti-cancer therapy.
  • Participation in any additional, parallel, investigational drug or device studies. Participation in non-interventional observational studies which will not influence the endpoints of the current studies is allowed (e.g. liquid biopsies, eNOSE, surveys).
  • Previous treatment with KRAS G12C inhibitor except if ≥ 1 year has elapsed since last dose
  • Pregnant or breast-feeding women or women who plan to become pregnant or breast-feed during the study. Pregnant women, where pregnancy is defined as the state of a female after conception and until the termination of gestation, confirmed by a positive hCG laboratory test.
  • Women of child-bearing potential, defined as all women physiologically capable of becoming pregnant, unless they are using highly effective methods of contraception while taking study treatment and for 7 days after the last dose of JDQ443. Highly effective contraception methods include: · Total abstinence (when this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the participant). Periodic abstinence (e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods) and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception. · Female bilateral tubal ligation, female sterilization (have had surgical bilateral oophorectomy with or without hysterectomy) or total hysterectomy at least 6 weeks before taking study treatment. In case of oophorectomy alone, only when the reproductive status of the woman has been confirmed by follow-up hormone level assessment. · Male sterilization (at least 6 months prior to screening). For female participants on the study, the vasectomized male partner should be the sole partner for that participant. · Use of oral (estrogen and progesterone), injected or implanted combined hormonal methods of contraception or placement of an intrauterine device (IUD) or intrauterine system (IUS), or other forms of hormonal contraception that have comparable efficacy (failure rate <1%), for example hormone vaginal ring or transdermal hormone contraception. In case of use of oral contraception women should have been stabilized on the same pill for a minimum of 3 months before taking study treatment. · Women are considered post-menopausal if they have had 12 months of natural (spontaneous) amenorrhea with an appropriate clinical profile (e.g. age appropriate, history of vasomotor symptoms). Women are considered not of child-bearing potential if they are post-menopausal or have had surgical bilateral oophorectomy (with or without hysterectomy), total hysterectomy or bilateral tubal ligation at least six weeks 6 weeks prior to enrollment on study. In the case of oophorectomy alone, only when the reproductive status of the woman has been confirmed by follow-up hormone level assessment is she considered to be not of child-bearing potential.
  • Sexually active males unless they use a condom during intercourse while taking study treatment and for 7 days after the last dose of JDQ443. Male participants should not father a child in this period. A condom is required to be used also by vasectomized men in order to prevent delivery of the study treatment via seminal fluid. In addition, male participants must not donate sperm and women participants must not donate oocytes for the time period specified above.
  • Tumors harbouring other oncogenic drivers for which targeted therapy is available (note: patients with KRAS G12C mutation as a resistance mechanism on for example EGFR or ALK inhibitors are not eligible).
  • History of severe hypersensitivity reaction to JDQ443 or its excipients.
  • History of allogeneic bone marrow or solid organ transplant
  • Participant has had major surgery (e.g., intra-thoracic, intra-abdominal or intra-pelvic) within 4 weeks prior to starting study treatment or has not recovered from side effects of such procedure.
  • Thoracic radiotherapy to lung fields ≤ 4 weeks prior to starting the study treatment or participants who have not recovered from radiotherapy-related toxicities. For all other anatomic sites (including radiotherapy to thoracic vertebrae and ribs) radiotherapy ≤ 2 weeks prior to starting the study treatment or has not recovered from radiotherapy-related toxicities. Palliative radiotherapy for bone lesions ≤ 2 weeks prior to starting study treatment is allowed.
  • Clinically significant, uncontrolled cardiac disease and/or recent cardiac events (within 6 months), such as: · Unstable angina or myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to screening. Symptomatic congestive heart failure (defined as New York Heart Association Grade II or greater). · Documented cardiomyopathy. · Clinically significant cardiac arrhythmias (e.g. sustained ventricular tachycardia, and clinically significant second or third degree AV block without a pacemaker) · Uncontrolled hypertension defined by a Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) ≥ 160 mm Hg and/or Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP) ≥ 100 mm Hg, unless controlled prior to first dose of study treatment. · History or current diagnosis of ECG abnormalities indicating significant risk of safety for study participation such as: concomitant clinically significant cardiac arrhythmias, e.g. sustained ventricular tachycardia, and clinically significant second or third degree AV block without a pacemaker. · History of familial long QT syndrome or known family history of Torsades de Pointes. · Resting QT interval corrected with Fridericia’s formula (QTcF) > 480 msec on screening ECG or congenital long QT syndrome. · Concomitant medication(s) with a “Known Risk of Torsades de Pointe” per www.qtdrugs.org that cannot be discontinued or replaced by safe alternative.
