A newly obtained tissue biopsy or an archival biopsy (block or slides) is required for PD-L1 determination (PD-L1 IHC 22C3 pharmDx assay), prior to study randomization. Note: For the safety run-in part, known PD-L1 status is not required.

  • At least 1 measurable lesion by RECIST 1.1

Key exclusion criteria:

  • Previous immunotherapy (e.g. anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, anti-PD-L2, anti-CTLA-4 antibody, or any other antibody or drug specifically targeting T-cell co-stimulation or immune checkpoint pathways).
  • Prior treatment with canakinumab or drugs of a similar mechanism of action (IL-1β inhibitor).
  • Subjects with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) sensitizing mutations (identified in exons 19, 20, or 21), and/or ALK rearrangement by locally approved laboratory testing.
  • Previously untreated or symptomatic central nervous system (CNS) metastases or lepto-meningeal disease.
  • Subject with suspected or proven immune-compromised state or infections.
  • Subject has prior to starting study drug: received live vaccination ≤3 months, had major surgery ≤4 weeks prior to starting study drug, has thoracic radiotherapy: lung fields ≤ 4 weeks, other anatomic sites ≤ 2 weeks, palliative radiotherapy for bone lesions ≤ 2 weeks.

Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria may apply.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This is a phase III study of pembrolizumab plus platinum-based doublet chemotherapy with or without canakinumab in previously untreated locally advanced or metastatic non-squamous and squamous NSCLC subjects. The study will assess primarily the safety and tolerability (safety run-in part) of pembrolizumab plus platinum-based doublet chemotherapy with canakinumab and then the efficacy (double-blind, randomized, placebo controlled part) of pembrolizumab plus platinum-based doublet chemotherapy with or without canakinumab.

Prior treatment with canakinumab or drugs of a similar mechanism of action (IL-1β inhibitor). Subjects with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) sensitizing mutations (identified in exons 19, 20, or 21), and/or ALK rearrangement by locally approved laboratory testing. Previously untreated or symptomatic central nervous system (CNS) metastases or lepto-meningeal disease. Subject with suspected or proven immune-compromised state or infections. Subject has prior to starting study drug: received live vaccination ≤3 months, had major surgery ≤4 weeks prior to starting study drug, has thoracic radiotherapy: lung fields ≤ 4 weeks, other anatomic sites ≤ 2 weeks, palliative radiotherapy for bone lesions ≤ 2 weeks.
