Brief Summary

This study is referred to as the "umbrella master protocol" for pembrolizumab (MK-3475) in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This pembrolizumab NSCLC umbrella master protocol uses a platform design and consists of this master screening study and seven substudies. Each substudy will enroll a different population of NSCLC participants.

The goal of this umbrella master protocol is to screen potential participants with NSCLC for enrollment into 1 of 7 substudies. Participants must first enroll in this pembrolizumab master protocol study and undergo screening for NSCLC that will be used to assign them to participation in 1 of 7 pembrolizumab substudies.

Detailed Description

The following 7 pembrolizumab substudies will evaluate the efficacy of different investigational agents in combination with pembrolizumab given in sequence or in combination with pembrolizumab PLUS chemotherapy:

* KEYMAKER-U01 Substudy 01A: A Phase 1/2, Umbrella Study With Rolling Arms of Investigational Agents, With Pembrolizumab With or Without Chemotherapy in Treatment-Naive Participants With Stage IV Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) (MK-3475-01A) - NCT04165070

* KEYMAKER-U01 Substudy 2: A Phase 2, Umbrella Study with Rolling Arms of Investigational Agents in Combination with Pembrolizumab in Treatment Naïve Patients with PD-L1 Positive Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) (MK-3475-01B) - NCT04165083

* KEYMAKER-U01 Substudy 3: A Phase 2, Umbrella Study with Rolling Arms of Investigational Agents in Combination with Pembrolizumab in Patients with Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) Previously Treated with anti-PD-(L)1 Therapy (MK-3475-01C) - NCT04165096

* KEYMAKER-U01 Substudy 01E: A Phase 2 Umbrella Study With Rolling Arms of Investigational Agents With or Without Chemotherapy in Combination With Pembrolizumab in Treatment of Participants With Newly Diagnosed Resectable Stages II-IIIB (N2) Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) (MK-3475-01E) - NCT06788912

* KEYMAKER-U01 Substudy 01G: A Phase 2, Umbrella Study With Rolling Arms of Investigational Agents in Combination With Pembrolizumab With or Without Platinum-based Chemotherapy in Treatment-Naïve Participants With Stage IV Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) (MK-3475-01G) - NCT06731907

* KEYMAKER-U01 Substudy 01F: A Phase 1b/2 Umbrella Study With Rolling Arms of Investigational Agents for Second-line Treatment of Participants With Advanced or Metastatic Nonsquamous Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) With KRAS G12C Mutations

* KEYMAKER-U01 Substudy 01H: A Phase 2, Randomized, Umbrella Study With Rolling Arms of Investigational Agents in Participants with Previously Treated Stage IV Nonsquamous Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) (MK-3475-01H) - NCT06780085

* KEYMAKER-U01 Substudy 01I: A Phase 2, Randomized, Umbrella Study With Rolling Arms of Investigational Agents in Participants With Previously Treated Stage IV Squamous Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) (MK-3475-01I) - NCT06780098

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Tumor Histology Status: Squamous Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) vs. Nonsquamous NSCLCUp to approximately 1 month

Participants' tumors will be evaluated for their tumor histology status as being either squamous vs. nonsquamous NSCLC using archival or newly obtained tumor tissue samples. The percentage of participants who have squamous vs. nonsquamous NSCLC will be presented.

Programmed Cell Death-Ligand 1 (PD-L1) Tumor Expression Level: Tumor Proportion Score (TPS) <1% vs. TPS =1%Up to approximately 1 month

Participants' tumors will be evaluated for their PD-L1 tumor expression level using archival tumor tissue samples or newly obtained tumor tissue. The percentage of participants who have a Tumor Proportion Score (TPS) \<1% vs. a TPS =1% will be presented.
