AI summary
From the trial's eligibility criteria. Machine-read from the registry text on this page, so it can be wrong. The registry text below and the trial team decide who can take part.
The trial is looking for adults with advanced or spread lung cancer, either small cell or non-small cell, that cannot be removed by surgery. It tests two drugs together, BNT324 and BNT327.
- Age
- 18 years or older
- Sex
- All sexes can join
- Disease stage
- Lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery and is advanced or has spread. It can be small cell (SCLC) or non-small cell (NSCLC). Some groups are for first treatment, others for second treatment or later. The disease must be measurable on scans (RECIST version 1.1).
- Earlier treatment
- People with a certain gene change (AGA-positive) must have already had targeted therapy. People joining the first-treatment groups cannot have had B7-H3 targeted therapy or an antibody-drug conjugate with a topoisomerase inhibitor. People in the later-treatment groups cannot have had B7-H3 targeted therapy.
- Biomarker or test result
- Non-small cell cancer can have any or no PD-L1 level. Some groups need no AGA gene change, and one group needs an AGA gene change.
Main reasons for not taking part
- Earlier treatment with B7-H3 targeted therapy
- Earlier treatment with an antibody-drug conjugate with a topoisomerase inhibitor (for first-treatment groups)
- A doctor thinks local treatment such as surgery or radiotherapy could give a complete or near complete response
- Serious blood problems with earlier treatments, such as grade 4 febrile neutropenia or repeated grade 3 to 4 neutropenia
The registry criteria, word for word
Show all 9 criteriaShow less
Who can take part
- Aged ≥18 years at the time of giving informed consent
- Histological or cytological confirmed unresectable advanced/metastatic lung cancer. Histological classification may be based on tumor samples prior to metastatic disease. Participants with mixed histology must be classified based on the main component. Participants with NSCLC are eligible with any or no PD-L1 expression. Participants with AGA-positive disease must have received targeted therapy prior to enrollment in this study; Part 1: Participants with NSCLC and SCLC; Part 2 Cohort 1: Participants with NSCLC (subpopulation 1) AGA negative, 1L; Part 2 Cohort 2: Participants with SCLC, 2L+; Part 2 Cohort 3: Participants with NSCLC (subpopulation 1) AGA negative, 2L+; Part 2 Cohort 4: Participants with NSCLC (subpopulation 2) AGA negative, 1L; Part 2 Cohort 5: Participants with NSCLC (subpopulation 2) AGA negative, 2L+; Part 2 Cohort 6: Participants with NSCLC AGA positive; Part 2 Cohort 7: Participants with SCLC, 1L
- Have measurable disease defined by RECIST version 1.1
- Have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0 or 1
- Have a life expectancy of ≥12 weeks
Who cannot take part
- Prior treatment with B7-H3 targeted therapy
- Prior treatment with ADC with topoisomerase inhibitor (e.g., datopotamab deruxtecan, trastuzumab deruxtecan). Note: This exclusion applies to participants in the first-line/treatment-naïve cohorts in the advanced/metastatic setting. Prior treatment with ADC with topoisomerase inhibitor payload is only allowed for participants in the second-line plus cohorts in the advanced/metastatic setting
- Is a candidate to locoregional treatment (including surgical resection, stereotactic radiotherapy or tumor ablation) with potential to induce complete or near complete response and prolonged tumor control (sometimes described as "radical" intent), per investigator's assessment
- Has a history of significant hematologic toxicity to prior lines of therapy, as assessed by investigator, e.g., Grade 4 febrile neutropenia or recurrent/persistent Grade 3 to 4 neutropenia; NOTE: Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria may apply to all or some participants depending on the cohort

About the trial
What the trial wants to find out
This study aims to investigate the combination of BNT324, a B7-H3 antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) with BNT327, a programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) bispecific antibody, in participants with advanced/metastatic or relapsed/progressive small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
