Recruiting PHASE3 NSCLC Stage IV

Compares treatment options for NSCLC Stage IV

Official title Clinical Trial of N-803 Plus Tislelizumab or Prior Failed Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor and Docetaxel Versus Docetaxel Monotherapy in Participants With Advanced or Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Who Have Acquired Resistance to Immune Checkpoint In

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06745908

What this study is testing

What is N-803?

N-803 is an investigational medicine, given as an injection under the skin, being studied as a potential treatment for nsclc stage iv.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
This is a randomized, two-cohort, open-label, phase 3, clinical trial to compare the efficacy and safety of N-803 plus tislelizumab and docetaxel (cohort A) or prior failed Health Authority-approved antiprogrammed death-1 (PD-1) or anti-programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) CPI and docetaxel (cohort B) versus docetaxel monotherapy (cohorts A and B). For each cohort, enrolled participants will be randomized 2:1 to treatment in the experimental arm or the control arm.
  • Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
  • Which group you join is decided by chance.
