A Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Gocatamig (MK-6070) and Ifinatamab Deruxtecan (I-DXd) in Participants With Relapsed/Refractory Extensive-Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer (MK-6070-002)
Trial Status: active
Researchers are looking for new ways to treat people with extensive-stage small cell lung
cancer (SCLC) that has relapsed or is refractory. Gocatamig is a new type of
immunotherapy that uses a person's immune system to find and destroy cancer cells.
Ifinatamab deruxtecan (also known as I-DXd) is a drug which binds to a specific target on
cancer cells and delivers treatment to destroy those cells. Durvalumab is a different
type of immunotherapy that also destroys cancer cells. Researchers want to know if giving
gocatamig, I-DXd, and gocatamig with I-DXd or durvalumab can treat SCLC that did not
respond or stopped responding to a prior treatment.
The goals of this study are to learn:
- If gocatamig alone, I-DXd alone, and gocatamig with I-DXd or durvalumab are safe and
well tolerated
- If people who receive gocatamig alone, I-DXd alone, and gocatamig with I-DXd or
durvalumab have their SCLC get smaller or go away

History of arterial thrombosis (eg, stroke or transient ischemic attack) within 6 months before the first dose of study intervention
Active clinically significant infection requiring systemic therapy
History of allogeneic tissue/solid organ transplant
