Recruiting PHASE2 Lung Neoplasm

New treatment option for Lung Neoplasm

Official title Substudy 01I: A Study of Investigational Agents in Participants With Previously Treated Stage IV Squamous Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) (MK-3475-01I/KEYMAKER-U01I)

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06780098

What this study is testing

What is R-DXD?

R-DXD is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for lung neoplasm.

Also referred to as Raludotatug deruxtecan, MK-5909.

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
Researchers are looking for other ways to treat metastatic squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Squamous NSCLC is cancer that starts in squamous cells, which are flat cells that line the inside of the airways in the lungs.
