ResQ201A: Clinical Trial Of N-803 Plus TISLELIZUMAB And DOCETAXEL Versus DOCETAXEL Monotherapy In Participants With Advanced Or Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
ResQ201A: Clinical Trial Of N-803 Plus TISLELIZUMAB And DOCETAXEL Versus DOCETAXEL Monotherapy In Participants With Advanced Or Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
This is a randomized, open-label, phase 3 clinical trial to compare the efficacy and safety of N-803 plus tislelizumab and docetaxel (experimental arm) versus docetaxel monotherapy (control arm). Enrolled participants will be randomized 2:1 to treatment in the experimental arm or the control arm. Participant randomization will be stratified by geographical region (North America vs Europe vs ASIA vs Other), NSCLC histology (squamous vs nonsquamous), and actionable genomic alteration (AGA); (epidermal growth factor receptor \[EGFR\]/anaplastic lymphoma kinase \[ALK\] vs OTHER AGA vs No AGA).

Inclusion Criteria:
Participants must meet ALL of the following criteria for inclusion in the study:
1. Age 18 years old.
2. Able to understand and provide a signed informed consent that fulfills the relevant Institutional Review Board (IRB) or Independent Ethics Committee (IEC) guidelines.
3. Pathologically confirmed stage IV NSCLC disease.
4. Have acquired resistance to an immune checkpoint inhibitor, defined as disease progression immediately following an initial response or stable disease ( 6 months duration) to exactly 1 line of anti-PD-L1 or anti-CTLA-4 therapy (for Stage III, IV, or recurrent disease) that was given alone or in combination with chemotherapy.
5. Participants with AGA must have 1 or more documented AGA(s): EGFR, ROS1, neurotrophic tyrosine receptor kinase (NTRK), B rapidly accelerated fibrosarcoma (BRAF), mesenchymal epithelial transition (MET) exon 14 skipping, rearranged during transfection (RET), Kirsten RAt sarcoma (KRAS).
6. Participants with AGA must meet the following criteria for advanced or metastatic NSCLC. Participants who have been treated with 1 or 2 prior lines of applicable targeted therapy that is locally approved for the participant's genomic alteration at the time of screening: 1. Participants who have tumors with EGFR L858R or exon 19 deletion mutations must have received prior Osimertinib. 2. Participants who received a targeted agent as adjuvant therapy for early-stage disease must have relapsed or progressed while on the treatment or within 6 months of the last dose or received at least one additional course of targeted therapy for the same genomic alteration (which may or may not be same agent used in the adjuvant setting) for relapsed/progressive disease. 3. Participants who have been treated with a prior tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) must receive additional approved targeted therapy, if locally available and clinically appropriate, for the applicable genomic alteration, or the participant will not be allowed in the study. 4. Participants must meet the inclusion criteria #4 listed above.
7. ECOG performance status of 0 to 2.
8. Measurable tumor lesions according to RECIST v1.1. (at Baseline day 1).
9. Ability to attend required study visits and return for adequate follow-up, as required by this protocol.
10. Agreement to practice effective contraception for female participants of child-bearing potential and non-sterile males. Female participants of child-bearing potential must agree to use effective contraception for up to 7 months after completion of therapy, and non-sterile male participants must agree to use a condom for up to 7 months after treatment. Effective contraception includes surgical sterilization (eg, vasectomy, tubal ligation), orals, injectables, 2 forms of barrier methods (eg, condom, diaphragm) used with spermicide, intrauterine devices (IUDs), and hormonal therapy.

Exclusion Criteria:
Participants with ANY of the following criteria are excluded from participation in the study:

2. History of organ transplant requiring immunosuppression; or history of pneumonitis or interstitial lung disease requiring treatment with systemic steroids; or a history of receiving systemic steroid therapy or any other immunosuppressive medication 3 days prior to study initiation. Daily steroid replacement therapy (eg, prednisone or hydrocortisone) and corticosteroids used to manage AEs are permitted.
3. Participants with AGA of ALK.
4. History of known active hepatitis B or C infection.
5. Active infection requiring antibiotic therapy.

9. Participants with known history of severe hypersensitive reactions to docetaxel or to other drugs formulated with polysorbate 80.
10. Had major surgery within 28 days prior to study randomization. Participants must have fully recovered from the effects of prior surgery in the opinion of the treating Investigator.
11. Inadequate organ function, evidenced by the following laboratory results: 1. Absolute lymphocyte count institutional upper limit of normal (ULN). 2. Absolute neutrophil count 1,500 cells/mm3. 3. Platelet count 100,000 cells/mm3. 4. Total bilirubin greater than the ULN; unless the participant has documented Gilbert's syndrome). 5. Aspartate aminotransferase (AST \[serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase; SGOT\]) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT \[serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase; SGPT\]) > 1.5 ULN. 6. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels > 2.5 ULN. 7. Hemoglobin 9.0 g/dL. 8.
