Study Summary

This study is to assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety of SC pembrolizumab formulated with berahyaluronidase alfa (MK-3475A) versus (vs) intravenous (IV) pembrolizumab (MK-3475), administered with chemotherapy in first line treatment of adult participants with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer. The primary hypotheses of this study are pembrolizumab formulated with berahyaluronidase alfa subcutaneous (SC) is noninferior to pembrolizumab IV with respect to PK parameters.

Primary Outcome

AUC0-6 weeks was defined as a measure of pembrolizumab exposure that was calculated as the product of serum drug concentration and time from zero to 6 weeks. Blood samples were collected at pre-specified timepoints to determine AUC0-6 weeks. Per protocol, geometric mean AUC0-6 weeks value of pembrolizumab after the first dose of pembrolizumab formulated with berahyaluronidase alfa in arm 1 and after first dose of pembrolizumab in arm 2 was presented.
