Brief Summary

This is a multicenter, open-label, phase 2 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of niraparib alone and in combination with PD-1 inhibitors in participants with locally advanced and metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The study will consist of 2 stages. In stage 1, participants from Cohorts 1 and 2 will receive niraparib plus PD-1 inhibitor; pembrolizumab and participants from Cohort 3 will receive niraparib alone. In Stage 2, participants from Cohorts 1A and 2A will receive niraparib plus the PD-1 inhibitor, TSR-042 (Dostarlimab).

• Prior therapy with an anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, or anti-PD-L2 agent.
• Known hypersensitivity to the components of niraparib, pembrolizumab, TSR-042 (Dostarlimab), or their excipients.
• Known EGFR (exon 19 and 21) mutations, ALK translocations, and/or ROS-1 translocations.
