About this trial
This is a Phase II, single-arm, multicenter trial for patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer who have brain metastases and no known actionable mutations. Eligible patients will receive a combination of Datopotamab-deruxtecan, Carboplatin, and Pembrolizumab every three weeks for four cycles, followed by maintenance therapy with Datopotamab-deruxtecan and Pembrolizumab until disease progression or intolerable toxicity. Patients with intracranial progression but no systemic progression may receive stereotactic radiosurgery and continue treatment based on the investigator's decision.
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
Documented negative test results for EGFR and ALK actionable genomic alterations by local test;
No known actionable genomic alterations in ROS1, NTRK, RET, HER2, or MET.
No prior systemic therapy for advanced or metastatic NSCLC. Patients who received chemotherapy or immunotherapy for localized or locally advanced NSCLC are eligible if progression occurred at least 6 months after the last dose of systemic treatment.
Participants who have AEs due to previous anticancer therapies must have recovered to ≤Grade 1 or baseline. Participants with endocrine-related AEs who are adequately treated with hormone replacement or participants who have ≤Grade 2 neuropathy are eligible.
Disqualifiers
Has received prior systemic anti-cancer therapy including investigational agents within 4 weeks prior to inclusion.
Has received prior radiotherapy to the brain within 2 weeks of the start of therapy, or received radiotherapy to the chest within 4 weeks of start of therapy, or that have ongoing radiation-related toxicities requiring corticosteroid.
Has received a live vaccine or live-attenuated vaccine within 30 days before the first dose of study intervention. Administration of killed vaccines is allowed.
Has received an investigational agent or has used an investigational device within 4 weeks prior to study intervention administration.
