Study of Inupadenant (EOS100850) with Chemotherapy As Second Line Treatment for Nonsquamous Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
Recruiting
The study will first determine the optimal dose of inupadenant to be given in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed to patients that progressed after receiving first line anti-PD(L)1 treatment for locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer. The efficacy and safety of the combination is then compared to standard of care carboplatin and pemetrexed in the same populations.
