Study Summary

This phase Ib/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of trametinib when given together with pembrolizumab and to see how well they work in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer that has come back and spread to other places in the body, cannot be removed by surgery, or spread to nearby tissues or lymph nodes. Trametinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving trametinib and pembrolizumab may work better in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer.

Primary Outcome

Each patient will have the KRAS mutation and PD-L1 status determined prior to treatment in order for stratified randomization. A futility monitoring will be carried out continuously to each stratum within each treatment arm after the primary endpoints of 6 patients have been observed in the corresponding marker groups.
