Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Description

Inclusion Criteria

  • Participants must have a histologically confirmed diagnosis of a locally advanced and unresectable or metastatic solid tumor malignancy with a known Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS) alteration (mutation or amplification).
  • Participants must, for Arm D, have a PD-L1 expression (≥50%).
  • Participants must have previously received, be ineligible for, or decline (after having been provided adequate information to make an informed decision) the protocol defined standard of care (SoC) treatments.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Participants must not have untreated central nervous system (CNS) metastases.
  • Participants must not have concurrent malignancy (present during screening) requiring treatment or history of prior malignancy active within 2 years prior to treatment.
  • Participants must not have a history of, or any evidence of, interstitial lung disease or active, non-infectious pneumonitis. A history of radiation pneumonitis in the radiation field is permitted.
  • Participants must not have a history of prior severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs), including Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN).
  • Other protocol-defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria apply.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Objective response rate (ORR) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1 as assessed by the investigator.
Time Frame: Up to 3 years
Up to 3 years
Duration of response (DOR) per RECIST v1.1 as assessed by the investigator.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.

Primary Completion (Estimated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
