Study Summary

This trial is testing a new drug for people with lung cancer who have already tried other treatments. The goal is to see if it is safe and if it has any effect on the cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has a KRAS mutation and who have previously been treated with PD-1 or PD-L1 inhibitors. Participants must be able to take oral medications, have a good performance status, and not have had certain treatments or conditions that could interfere with the study.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the safety of different doses of RO5126766 to see its effects on people with advanced KRAS-mutant lung cancer. It aims to determine the appropriate dosage by observing how patients respond to this experimental treatment after prior therapies.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed here, they typically include reactions related to drug tolerance levels such as fatigue, nausea, skin rash, and potential organ-specific inflammation depending on individual patient health factors.

Trial Design

1Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: RO5126766 (CH5126766)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
The study will begin with a standard 3+3 design. The study will enroll 3 patients at the previously identified MTD15 (4mg two times per week on days 1 and 4). The period of evaluation for dose limiting toxicity will be through completion of cycle 1. If ≤1 of the 3 initial patients at the proposed dose experience a DLT, then 3 additional patients will be enrolled for a total of 6 planned patients at that dose level. Otherwise, 3 patients will be enrolled at dose level -1. If ≤ 1 of these patients experience a DLT, then 3 additional patients will be enrolled at the same dose level. If more than 1 patient experiences a DLT in dose level -1, the study will be terminated.
