A Study of Nivolumab and Ipilimumab in Untreated Participants With Stage 3 Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) That is Unable or Not Planned to be Removed by Surgery
CheckMate73L
A Phase 3, Randomized, Open Label Study to Compare Nivolumab Plus Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) Followed by Nivolumab Plus Ipilimumab or Nivolumab Plus CCRT Followed by Nivolumab vs CCRT Followed by Durvalumab in Previously Untreated, Locally Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (LA NSCLC)

Brief Summary
The primary purpose of the study is to compare the effectiveness of nivolumab plus concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) followed by nivolumab plus ipilimumab vs CCRT followed by durvalumab in participants with untreated Locally Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (LA NSCLC).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Arm A Vs Arm C - Progression-Free Survival (PFS) by RECIST 1.1 Per Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR)
Progression-Free Survival then (PFS) is defined as the time between the date of randomization and the date of first documented disease progression, based on BICR assessments (per RECIST v1.1), or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first based on Kaplan-Meier estimates. Progressive Disease (PD): At least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum during the study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm.
From randomization untill disease progression or death, whichever occurs first (up to approximately 53 months)
Secondary Outcomes (12)
Overall Survival (OS)
From randomization untill death (up to approximately 61 months)
Arm B Vs Arm C and Arm A Vs Arm B- Progression-Free Survival (Irrespective of Subsequent Therapy) by RECIST 1.1 Per Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR)
From randomization untill disease progression or death, whichever occurs first (up to approximately 61 months)
Objective Response Rate (ORR) by BICR
From randomization untill disease progression or death, whichever occurs first (up to approximately 61 months)
Duration of Response (DoR) by RECIST 1.1 Per BICR
From randomization untill disease progression or death, whichever occurs first (up to approximately 61 months)
Time to Response (TTR) by RECIST 1.1 Per BICR
From randomization untill disease progression or death, whichever occurs first (up to approximately 61 months)

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status ≤1
- Locally advanced stage IIIA, IIIB, or IIIC (T1-2 N2-3 M0, T3 N1-3 M0, or T4 N0-3 M0) pathologically-confirmed NSCLC, according to 8th TNM classification. Participants who are not planned for potential curative surgical resection are eligible.
- Newly diagnosed and treatment-naïve, with no prior local or systemic anticancer therapy given as primary therapy for locally advanced disease
You may not qualify if:
- Any condition including medical, emotional, psychiatric, or logistical that, in the opinion of the Investigator would preclude the participant from adhering to the protocol or would increase the risk associated with study participation
- Active infection requiring systemic therapy within 14 days prior to randomization
- History of organ or tissue transplant that requires systemic use of immune suppressive agents
- Prior thoracic radiotherapy
