New combo aims to stop KRAS-Mutant lung cancer from coming back
NCT ID NCT07431827
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Sep 15, 2026 · Updated 16 times
Summary
This Phase 3 trial is testing whether adding an experimental drug called calderasib (MK-1084) to standard immunotherapy (pembrolizumab) can keep non-small cell lung cancer from returning after surgery. The study enrolls 400 people with a specific KRAS G12C mutation whose cancer was completely removed. Participants receive either the drug combination or a placebo plus immunotherapy, and researchers will track how long they remain cancer-free.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Calderasib (MK-1084) oral tablet plus pembrolizumab and hyaluronidase injection
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this combination could help prevent lung cancer from returning after surgery in people with a specific KRAS mutation.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-stage Phase 3 trial with no results yet. The added drug may cause side effects or not improve outcomes over standard treatment.
