Clinical summary

Summary

This study is looking at whether adding a new treatment (called JNJ-90301900) to standard treatment can improve outcomes for people with stage III non-small cell lung cancer.

Researchers will measure how many people's cancer shrinks or disappears during the study.

Who is it for?
You may be eligible for this study if you have non-small cell lung cancer that is locally advanced and unable to be removed by surgery (unresectable).

Study details
The trial is done in two parts.

Part 1
All participants will receive JNJ-90301900, along with concurrent chemotherapy with radiation therapy (or cCRT) followed by consolidation immunotherapy.

There will be two groups (called cohorts) which differ in the dose of JNJ-90301900 that will be given: Cohort A lower dose and Cohort B higher dose.

Part 2
Participants are randomly assigned (by chance) to one of three groups:

  • Arm A: JNJ-90301900 (lower dose) + cCRT, followed by immunotherapy
  • Arm B: JNJ-90301900 (higher dose) + cCRT, followed by immunotherapy
  • Arm C: Standard treatment only with cCRT followed by immunotherapy.

Conditions

This trial is treating people with locally advanced, unresectable stage III non-small cell lung cancer

Eligibility

Inclusion

  • Must be a candidate for standard of care (SOC) treatment of non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) by concurrent platinum-based doublet chemotherapy with radiation therapy (cCRT) followed by consolidation durvalumab treatment as determined by the investigator and per local guidelines at screening
  • Have a medical history of pathologically (histologically or cytologically) proven diagnosis of NSCLC within 3 months prior to enrollment/randomization
  • Have locally advanced unresectable stage III NSCLC according to the eighth edition lung cancer stage classification
  • Have at least 1 target lesion (primary lung lesion or involved lymph node[s]) per RECIST version 1.1 that is amenable to intratumoral and/or intranodal injection and intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) as determined by the investigator at screening
  • Have an eastern cooperative oncology group (ECOG) performance status of 0 to 1

Exclusion

  • Medical history of: (a) Primary immunodeficiency (b) Organ transplant that requires therapeutic immunosuppression
  • Any of the following within 3 months prior to enrollment/randomization: severe or unstable angina, myocardial infarction, clinically significant ventricular arrhythmias or heart failure New York heart association functional classification class III to IV
  • Another concurrent or prior primary malignancy within the last 36 months at informed consent
  • Known allergies, hypersensitivity, or intolerance to any ingredients of JNJ-90301900 crystalline solution, platinum-based doublet chemotherapy (ChT), or durvalumab
  • History of coagulation disorders, including: (a) Active bleeding diathesis or requirement for therapeutic anticoagulation or antiplatelet that cannot be interrupted or altered for JNJ-90301900 injection procedures, (b) Major thromboembolic events (for example, pulmonary embolism, cerebrovascular accident) within 3 months of enrollment or randomization

Inclusion

  • Your cancer has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic) or has grown into nearby parts of the body (locally advanced).
  • Your cancer has not spread to other parts of the body, but it is not possible to perform surgery to remove it (unresectable).

Exclusion

  • You have been diagnosed with a prior or secondary type of cancer.
  • You have certain types of non-cancer medical conditions.
Message

Clinical trials have complex eligibility criteria, and other criteria may apply for this trial. Ask your doctor about whether this trial could be right for you.
