Overview

Brief Summary

  1. Safety Lead-In Phase: To evaluate the safety and tolerability of MK-2870 plus pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy.
  2. To estimate the ORR as assessed by BICR per RECIST 1.1 for selected dose.

Eligibility Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers
No

Inclusion Criteria

  • Has histologically and/or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of previously untreated locally advanced unresectable or metastatic 1L gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma
  • Who are Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) positive are eligible if they have received hepatitis B virus (HBV) antiviral therapy for at least 4 weeks, and have undetectable HBV viral load prior to randomization
  • Who has history of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection are eligible if HCV viral load is undetectable at screening.
  • Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected participants must have well-controlled HIV on antiretroviral therapy (ART)
  • Is not expected to require tumor resection during the treatment course
  • Has gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma that is not human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)/neu positive
  • Has provided an archival tumor tissue sample or most recently obtained core, or incisional, or excisional biopsy for a tumor lesion
  • Participants who have adverse events (AEs) due to previous anticancer therapies must have recovered to ≤ Grade 1 or baseline. Participants with endocrine-related AEs who are adequately treated with hormone replacement therapy are eligible
  • Has adequate organ function
  • Has measurable disease per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) as determined by the local site investigator/radiology assessment and verified by blind independent review committee (BICR)

Exclusion Criteria

  • Has squamous cell or undifferentiated gastroesophageal cancer
  • Has diagnosis of immunodeficiency or is receiving chronic systemic steroid therapy or any other form of immunosuppressive therapy within 7 days prior to the first dose of study intervention
  • Has known additional malignancy that is progressing or has required active treatment within the past 3 years
  • Has had previous therapy for locally advanced unresectable or metastatic gastric/GEJ/esophageal adenocarcinoma
  • Has known active central nervous system (CNS) metastases and/or carcinomatous meningitis
  • Has Severe hypersensitivity (≥Grade 3) to pembrolizumab, sacituzumab tirumotecan, or other biologic therapy, chemotherapy (ie, oxaliplatin, fluorouracil, capecitabine), leucovorin, levoleucovorin, or any of their excipients
  • Has active autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment in the past 2 years
  • Has history of (noninfectious) pneumonitis/interstitial lung disease that required steroids or has current pneumonitis/interstitial lung disease
  • Has an active infection requiring systemic therapy
  • Has concurrent active hepatitis B (defined as Hepatitis B surface antigen [HBsAg] positive and/or detectable HBV DNA) and hepatitis C virus (defined as anti-hepatitis C virus [HCV] Ab positive and detectable HCV ribonucleic acid [RNA] infection
