NCT ID NCT05782361

First seen Apr 29, 2026 · Last updated May 12, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This early-phase study tests whether combining two drugs—tepotinib and pembrolizumab—can help treat advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that doesn't respond to standard immunotherapy. The trial includes 19 adults with NSCLC, some with a specific MET gene mutation. The goal is to see if tepotinib can make the cancer visible to the immune system again, potentially slowing tumor growth.
