KEYMAKER-U01 Umbrella Master Study: Studies of Investigational Agents With Either Pembrolizumab (MK-3475) Alone or With Pembrolizumab PLUS Chemotherapy in Participants With Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) (MK-3475-U01/KEYMAKER-U01)
Purpose
This study is referred to as the "umbrella master protocol" for pembrolizumab (MK-3475) in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This pembrolizumab NSCLC umbrella master protocol uses a platform design and consists of this master screening study and seven substudies. Each substudy will enroll a different population of NSCLC participants. The goal of this umbrella master protocol is to screen potential participants with NSCLC for enrollment into 1 of 7 substudies. Participants must first enroll in this pembrolizumab master protocol study and undergo screening for NSCLC that will be used to assign them to participation in 1 of 7 pembrolizumab substudies.

Detailed Description
The following 7 pembrolizumab substudies will evaluate the efficacy of different investigational agents in combination with pembrolizumab given in sequence or in combination with pembrolizumab PLUS chemotherapy: - KEYMAKER-U01 Substudy 01A: A Phase 1/2, Umbrella Study With Rolling Arms of Investigational Agents, With Pembrolizumab With or Without Chemotherapy in Treatment-Naive Participants With Stage IV Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) (MK-3475-01A) - NCT04165070 - KEYMAKER-U01 Substudy 2: A Phase 2, Umbrella Study with Rolling Arms of Investigational Agents in Combination with Pembrolizumab in Treatment Naïve Patients with PD-L1 Positive Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) (MK-3475-01B) - NCT04165083 - KEYMAKER-U01 Substudy 3: A Phase 2, Umbrella Study with Rolling Arms of Investigational Agents in Combination with Pembrolizumab in Patients with Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) Previously Treated with anti-PD-(L)1 Therapy (MK-3475-01C) - NCT04165096 - KEYMAKER-U01 Substudy 01E: A Phase 2 Umbrella Study With Rolling Arms of Investigational Agents With or Without Chemotherapy in Combination With Pembrolizumab in Treatment of Participants With Newly Diagnosed Resectable Stages II-IIIB (N2) Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) (MK-3475-01E) - NCT06788912 - KEYMAKER-U01 Substudy 01G: A Phase 2, Umbrella Study With Rolling Arms of Investigational Agents in Combination With Pembrolizumab With or Without Platinum-based Chemotherapy in Treatment-Naïve Participants With Stage IV Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) (MK-3475-01G) - NCT06731907 - KEYMAKER-U01 Substudy 01F: A Phase 1b/2 Umbrella Study With Rolling Arms of Investigational Agents for Second-line Treatment of Participants With Advanced or Metastatic Nonsquamous Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) With KRAS G12C Mutations - KEYMAKER-U01 Substudy 01H: A Phase 2, Randomized, Umbrella Study With Rolling Arms of Investigational Agents in Participants with Previously Treated Stage IV Nonsquamous Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) (MK-3475-01H) - NCT06780085 - KEYMAKER-U01 Substudy 01I: A Phase 2, Randomized, Umbrella Study With Rolling Arms of Investigational Agents in Participants With Previously Treated Stage IV Squamous Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) (MK-3475-01I) - NCT06780098
