Summary

This is a phase 3, open-label, 4-cohort study (3 randomized cohorts and 1 single-arm cohort). Participants enrolled in each cohort will be treated as detailed below. Each study cohort will be analyzed separately. Treatment will continue for up to 2 years, or until the patient experiences confirmed progressive disease or unacceptable toxicity, withdraws consent, or if the investigator feels that it is no longer in the patient's best interest to continue treatment. Patients will be followed for disease progression, post-therapies, and survival through 24 months after the first dose of study drug.

Conditions

  • Non Small Cell Lung Cancer

Interventions

DRUG

NAI + Pembrolizumab

This intervention combines Nogapendekin alfa inbakicept (NAI), an immunostimulatory protein complex, with pembrolizumab, an anti-PD-1 immune checkpoint inhibitor, for the treatment of NSCLC in Cohort A of QUILT-2.023. Nogapendekin Alfa Inbakicept (NAI): A soluble complex consisting of two protein subunits of a human IL-15 variant bound with high affinity to a dimeric human IL-15Ra sushi domain/human IgG1 Fc fusion protein (inbakicept), serving as an immunostimulatory agent. Dose: 15 µg/kg Route of Administration: Subcutaneously (SC) Pembrolizumab: A humanized monoclonal antibody that blocks the interaction between PD-1 and its ligands, PD-L1 and PD-L2, thereby unleashing T-cell mediated immune responses against cancer cells. Dose: 200 mg Route of Administration: Intravenously (IV)
