This phase II Expanded Lung-MAP treatment trial tests tepotinib with or without ramucirumab for the treatment of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (stage IV) or that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). Tepotinib is used in patients whose cancer has a mutated (changed) form of a gene called MET. It is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of the abnormal MET protein that signals tumor cells to multiply. This helps slow or stop the spread of tumor cells. Ramucirumab is a monoclonal antibody that may prevent the growth of new blood vessels that tumors need to grow. Giving tepotinib with ramucirumab may lower the chance of the cancer from growing or spreading in patients with stage IV or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer.
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To compare the response rate (confirmed or unconfirmed, complete or partial) between participants with MET exon 14 skipping positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) randomized to tepotinib with or without ramucirumab. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To compare the frequency of all-grade treatment- related peripheral edema as defined by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) between the arms. II. To evaluate the frequency and severity of toxicities within each arm. III. To compare progression-free survival between the arms. IV. To compare overall survival b…
