A Study of Cemiplimab Plus Chemotherapy Versus Cemiplimab Plus Chemotherapy Plus Other Cancer Treatments for Adult Patients With Operable Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)

Overview

This study will enroll adult participants with early-stage (stage II-IIIB) non-small cell lung cancer for whom surgery is planned.

The aim is to find out whether an investigational treatment (consisting of the immunotherapy drug cemiplimab plus chemotherapy plus a third drug) works better than cemiplimab plus chemotherapy without the additional drug.

The study is also looking at several other research questions, including:

• What are the side effects associated with the investigational treatments in comparison to the control treatment?
• Do the investigational treatments or the control treatment have an effect on the type of surgery that is performed?
• How much of the study drug(s) are in the blood at a given time?
• Does the body make antibodies against the study drugs (which could make the drugs less effective or could lead to side effects)?
