What You Need to Know Before You Apply

What is the purpose of this trial?

This trial aims to determine a safe and tolerable dose of two drugs, navlimetostat and pumitamig, for treating advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that lacks a specific protein (MTAP-deficient). Researchers seek to evaluate the effectiveness of these drugs in combination. Suitable participants have NSCLC, lack the MTAP protein, and have undergone previous cancer treatments but still have measurable disease. As a Phase 1 trial, the research focuses on understanding how the treatment works in people, providing participants the opportunity to be among the first to receive this new treatment.

Do I need to stop my current medications for the trial?

The trial does not specify if you need to stop taking your current medications. However, you cannot participate if you need a medication with a known risk of Torsade's de Pointes or if it is a strong inhibitor or inducer of CYP3A4 and/or P-glycoprotein. It's best to discuss your current medications with the trial team.

Is there any evidence suggesting that this trial's treatments are likely to be safe?

Research has shown that navlimetostat and pumitamig have promising safety records from previous studies. Participants generally tolerated the combination well. For pumitamig, some side effects appeared, but they were mostly mild to moderate. Common side effects included tiredness, nausea, and changes in blood counts.

Navlimetostat has undergone testing in similar studies, and results suggest it is generally well-tolerated. The most common side effects were tiredness and mild stomach issues.

This combination is currently being tested in early-phase studies to determine the safe dosage and identify any serious side effects. So far, the data supports that the treatment is generally safe, but ongoing trials will provide more information.12345

Why are researchers excited about this trial's treatments?

Researchers are excited about Navlimetostat and Pumitamig because they offer a novel approach for treating non-small cell lung cancer. Most current treatments, like chemotherapy and targeted therapies, focus on disrupting cell division or specific cancer cell pathways. However, Navlimetostat and Pumitamig work differently; Navlimetostat is a small molecule inhibitor targeting a unique pathway, potentially blocking cancer cell growth, while Pumitamig is administered intravenously, complementing this action every three weeks. This combination could enhance effectiveness and limit cancer progression, providing new hope for patients where traditional therapies may fall short.

What evidence suggests that navlimetostat and pumitamig could be effective for non-small cell lung cancer?

Research has shown that combining navlimetostat and pumitamig may help treat non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Early studies found that pumitamig, when used with chemotherapy, produced positive anti-tumor effects in patients with various solid tumors, including NSCLC. Trial data revealed that patients treated with pumitamig experienced a longer time before their cancer worsened. Initial findings suggest that navlimetostat might enhance these effects, as it is under study for its potential in treating MTAP-deficient cancers, a type of NSCLC. Although more research is needed, this combination is actively explored in this trial for its potential benefits in cancer treatment.23678

Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?

This trial is for adults with advanced non-small cell lung cancer whose tumors are missing the MTAP gene. Participants should be in generally good health aside from their cancer and able to carry out daily activities.

Inclusion Criteria

I am 18 years old or older.
I have at least one tumor that can be measured and tracked for changes.
My tumor shows MTAP loss based on genetic or protein testing.
