Who this trial is looking for

This trial is looking for adults with a type of lung cancer called non-small cell lung cancer who did not have a complete response after surgery. Participants will receive medications to see if adding sacituzumab to pembrolizumab helps them stay cancer-free longer.

About This Trial
This study will assess if adding sacituzumab tirumotecan with pembrolizumab after surgery is effective in treating NSCLC for participants not achieving pathological complete response. The primary hypothesis of this study is sacituzumab tirumotecan plus pembrolizumab is superior to pembrolizumab monotherapy with respect to disease free survival (DFS) as assessed by blinded independent central revie…
