Eligibility Criteria

Age 18+ · All Participants · 10 Total Inclusion Criteria

Mark “Yes” if the following statements are true for you:
You need to have a specific genetic mutation called KRAS, which will be detected by a certified lab test.
You must not have a specific genetic mutation called KRAS in order to participate in cohort 2. Your KRAS mutation status must be known, regardless of cancer type.
You must have a type of disease that can be tested by taking a small tissue sample (core biopsy). You must also be willing to undergo the necessary research biopsies.
You are at least 18 years old.
You have been diagnosed with advanced or recurring non-small cell lung cancer, confirmed by a tissue sample or cell examination.
You have a specific genetic alteration in your EGFR, ALK, or ROS1 genes that can be treated with approved medication, but it hasn't worked or you're unable to tolerate it. If you've tried experimental medication, the study's principal investigator will decide if you're eligible.
You are physically able to perform daily activities without assistance and have a Karnofsky score of 60% or higher.
You have received treatment with anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 medications, either alone or with other drugs, but your disease did not respond to the therapy or it progressed within 6 months. It does not matter if you have received other treatments after this.
You have a specific and measurable lesion that can be seen on a chest x-ray or CT scan, MRI, or by clinical exam. The lesion should be at least 20mm (2cm) for non-nodal lesions and 10mm (1cm) for nodal lesions.
This study is only for adults, as the safety and dosage of the study drugs in children are not yet known. However, there may be future clinical trials specifically for children.
