A Clinical Study of Pembrolizumab (+) Berahyaluronidase Alfa (MK-3475A) to Treat Newly-diagnosed Metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (MK-3475A-F84)

Brief Summary
Researchers are looking for new ways to treat non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that is metastatic, which means cancer has spread to other parts of the body.

Some people with metastatic NSCLC are treated with pembrolizumab, an immunotherapy treatment that is given into a vein as an intravenous (IV) infusion. Pembrolizumab (+) Berahyaluronidase alfa is pembrolizumab that is given under the skin as a subcutaneous (SC) injection. The goal of this study is to learn what happens to pembrolizumab in a person's body over time when it is given as an IV infusion or SC injection.

Official Title
A Phase 3 Randomized, Open-label Clinical Study to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics and Safety of Subcutaneous Pembrolizumab Coformulated With Hyaluronidase (MK-3475A) Versus Intravenous Pembrolizumab, in the First-line Treatment of Participants With Metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer With PD-L1 TPS 50% or Greater
Primary Outcomes
Outcome Description
AUC is defined as area under curve exposure. Blood samples collected pre-dose and at multiple timepoints post-dose will be used to determine AUC.
Outcome Measure
Area Under the Curve (AUC) of Pembrolizumab Measured After the First Dose
Outcome Time Frame
At designated time points (up to approximately 14 months)
Outcome Description
Ctrough is defined as the trough concentration at steady-state. Blood samples collected pre-dose and at multiple timepoints post-dose will be used to determine Ctrough
Outcome Measure
Trough Concentration (Ctrough) of Pembrolizumab Measured at Steady State
Outcome Time Frame
At designated time points (Up to ~15 months)
