Summary
This trial tests the safety and tolerability of combining GT103, a new drug, with pembrolizumab, an immune-boosting cancer treatment, in adults with advanced lung cancer that has returned or not responded to previous treatments. Pembrolizumab is an immune-boosting treatment that has shown effectiveness in patients with lung cancer and has been tested with other treatments.
Who is the study for?
Adults over 18 with Stage III-IV recurrent or metastatic NSCLC, who have relapsed or are refractory to immunotherapy and possibly chemotherapy. They must have adequate organ function, not be pregnant or breastfeeding, use contraception if of childbearing potential, and cannot have other conditions that might interfere with the trial.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing GT103 in combination with Pembrolizumab for safety and effectiveness in treating NSCLC. It includes an initial phase to determine the safest dose followed by treatment of up to 60 patients at this dose level.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects for GT103 aren't listed, Pembrolizumab can cause immune system reactions affecting organs, fatigue, infusion-related reactions like fever or chills, skin rash, digestive issues such as diarrhea or liver inflammation.

Other Research
Pembrolizumab, a PD-1 inhibitor, blocks the PD-1 pathway that cancer cells use to evade the immune system, thereby reactivating T-cells to recognize and attack cancer cells. GT103, though its mechanism is unspecified, is being studied in combination with pembrolizumab, suggesting it may also modulate the immune response.
These mechanisms are important for NSCLC patients as they leverage the body's immune system to target cancer cells, potentially offering more effective and less toxic treatment options compared to traditional chemotherapy.

Eligibility Criteria:
This trial includes the following eligibility criteria:- You have been diagnosed with stage III or IV recurrent or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer.You cannot tolerate pembrolizumab or other drugs that help the immune system fight cancer.You are currently taking certain medications that are not allowed for this study, such as strong corticosteroids or other drugs that weaken the immune system.You have previously received immunotherapy and it did not work. You may have had other types of treatment before, but no more than two.You have received a transplant from another person, such as a stem cell or organ transplant.You need to be in good physical condition, with minimal limitations in your daily activities.You have an autoimmune condition that needs strong medication to control it, other than a low dose of prednisone or a similar drug.You have received any kind of cancer treatment within the 14 days before starting the study.You have cancer that has spread to your brain and is causing symptoms. If you have been treated for these brain metastases and they are under control, or if they are not causing symptoms, you may still be eligible. If you have brain metastases that have not been treated and are not causing symptoms that require medication, you may also be eligible.You have a history of lung disease that required steroids, or you currently have lung disease.You have specific genetic mutations and have already tried at least one oral targeted therapy and one chemotherapy treatment. You can't have had more than two previous lines of treatment.You have a serious ongoing infection that needs strong medication, but it's okay if you're taking antibiotics to prevent infections.Your disease must be able to be measured using specific criteria. If you had radiation treatment before, any tumor growth in the treated area will also be measured.You have HIV, AIDS, active hepatitis B, or other serious chronic infections that need ongoing treatment.
