About this study
Official title: Open-label Phase 3 Study of MK-7684A (Coformulation of Vibostolimab With Pembrolizumab) in Combination With Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy Followed by MK-7684A Versus Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy Followed by Durvalumab in Participants With Unresectable, Locally Advanced, Stage III NSCLC
Researchers are looking for new ways to treat people with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The goal of this study is to learn if people who receive the combination of vibostolimab and pembrolizumab (MK-7684A) live longer without the cancer getting worse and live longer overall than people who receive durvalumab.
Read the detailed description
As of protocol amendment 4, participants receiving combination vibostolimab and pembrolizumab (MK-7684A) discontinued treatment due to lack of efficacy observed in other MK-7684A studies, and are given the option to transition to durvalumab therapy.
- Conditions

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Number of Participants Who Experience at Least One Adverse Event (AE)
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of a study intervention.
Measured: Up to approximately 48 months
Number of Participants Who Discontinue Study Treatment Due to an Adverse Event (AE)
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of a study intervention.

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
Researchers are looking for new ways to treat people with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The goal of this study is to learn if people who receive the combination of vibostolimab and pembrolizumab (MK-7684A) live longer without the cancer getting worse and live longer overall than people who receive durvalumab.
Detailed description
As of protocol amendment 4, participants receiving combination vibostolimab and pembrolizumab (MK-7684A) discontinued treatment due to lack of efficacy observed in other MK-7684A studies, and are given the option to transition to durvalumab therapy.

Participants receive pembrolizumab/vibostolimab for Cycles 4-20 or until discontinuation (up to ~14 months). Cycles 1-20 are 21-day cycles. As of protocol amendment 4, participants receiving pembrolizumab/vibostolimab must stop ongoing treatment with pembrolizumab/vibostolimab and will be offered the option to transition to post-cCRT durvalumab consolidation therapy, to complete up to 1 year of consolidation immunotherapy. |
| chemotherapy+radiotherapy+durvalumab | Active comparator | Biological: durvalumab, Drug: cisplatin, Drug: pemetrexed, Drug: etoposide, Drug: carboplatin, Drug: paclitaxel, Radiation: thoracic radiotherapyFor the first 3 cycles, participants will receive investigator's choice of platinum doublet chemotherapy and concurrent standard thoracic radiotherapy during Cycles 2 and 3. Following concurrent chemoradiotherapy (cCRT), participants receive durvalumab 10 mg/kg every 2 weeks for up to an additional 26 cycles or until discontinuation (up to approximately 14 months). cCRT Cycles 1-3=21-day cycles; durvalumab Cycles 1-26=14-day cycles. |

Primary outcome
Number of Participants Who Experience at Least One Adverse Event (AE)
Time frame: Up to approximately 48 months
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of a study intervention.
Number of Participants Who Discontinue Study Treatment Due to an Adverse Event (AE)
Time frame: Up to approximately 48 months
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of a study intervention.

What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Number of Participants Who Experience at Least One Adverse Event (AE) (time frame: Up to approximately 48 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Aug 2026.
