Study Summary

This pilot study is configured as a non-inferiority comparison of Performance Status 2 patients with Performance Status 0-1 patients, with the goal of demonstrating non-inferiority in terms of efficacy (progression-free survival, overall survival) and safety (rates of adverse events, quality of life) when treating Performance Status 2 patients with the same first-line immunotherapy-based regimen as Performance Status 0-1 patients.

Primary Outcome

Using non-blinded central imaging using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1 to define progressive disease. RECIST v 1.1 criteria: * Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. * Partial Response (PR): Decrease by ≥ 30% in sum of longest diameter of target lesions. * Stable Disease (SD): Not meeting criteria for CR, PR, or PD. * Progressive Disease (PD): Increase by ≥ 20% in sum of longest diameter of target lesions or the appearance of one or more
