Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

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

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study will consist of two parts. Part 1 will assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of gocatamig and I-DXd at doses determined in study MK-6070-001 (NCT: NCT04471727). Part 2 will assess the safety and tolerability of gocatamig in participants in Japan and China. Part 3 will assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of gocatamig with durvalumab.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

Part 1 consists of four arms (gocatamig and I-DXd at different dosing intervals). Participants will be randomized to one of the four arms using an interactive response technology (IRT) system. Part 2 consist of three arms (gocatamig monotherapy in participants in Japan, gocatamig monotherapy in participants in China, and gocatamig at different dosing intervals). Part 3 consists of a single arm (gocatamig and durvalumab).
