Lung, Phase II

A Phase 2, Randomized, Blinded, Placebo-Controlled Trial Investigating the Efficacy and Safety of Visugromab Versus Placebo, in Combination With Pembrolizumab, Pemetrexed, and Carboplatin, in 1L Treatment of Participants With Metastatic NSCLC (GDFATHER-NSCLC-01)

What is the purpose of this trial?

This is an exploratory, signal finding, randomized, placebo-controlled, blinded, multi-center Phase 2b trial of the anti GDF-15 antibody Visugromab (CTL-002) versus Placebo, combined with Immunochemotherapy (ICT: Pembrolizumab, Pemetrexed, Carboplatin) in the first-line treatment of participants with newly diagnosed metastatic non-squamous NSCLC. The trial consists of 3 Parts, a non-randomized Safety-run-in part (Part A) and the subsequent randomized Ph2b trial with 2 treatment arms. After the treatment of 15 participants with visugromab at the expansion dose, an interim safety and preliminary efficacy analysis will be conducted (Part B), followed by the treatment of the remaining participants (Part C).
