Brief Summary
Researchers want to learn if calderasib given alone or with cetuximab can treat certain advanced solid tumors in people with the KRAS G12C mutation. The goals of this study are to learn:
- How many people have the cancer respond (get smaller or go away) to calderasib alone or with cetuximab and how these responses compare
- About the safety of calderasib alone or with cetuximab and if people tolerate the treatments.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (3)
Objective Response Rate (ORR)
ORR is defined as the percentage of participants with Complete Response (CR: disappearance of all target lesions) or Partial Response (PR: at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions) per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1). The percentage of participants who experience CR or PR as assessed by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR) will be presented.
Up to approximately 76 months
Number of Participants Who Experience One or More Adverse Events (AEs)
An AE is defined as any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, disease, or worsening of preexisting condition temporally associated with study treatment and irrespective of causality to study treatment. The number of participants who experience an AE will be reported.
Up to approximately 76 months
Number of Participants Who Discontinue Study Treatment Due to an AE
An AE is defined as any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, disease, or worsening of preexisting condition temporally associated with study treatment and irrespective of causality to study treatment. The number of participants who discontinue study treatment due to an AE will be reported.
Up to approximately 76 months
Secondary Outcomes (3)
Progression-free Survival (PFS)
Up to approximately 76 months
Duration of Response (DOR)
Up to approximately 76 months
Overall Survival (OS)
Up to approximately 76 months
Study Arms (2)
Calderasib
EXPERIMENTALParticipants will receive calderasib orally. Per protocol treatment of calderasib has no maximum number of cycles. Participants will be treated until any of the criteria for discontinuation of study intervention are met.
Calderasib + Cetuximab
EXPERIMENTALParticipants will receive calderasib orally. Participants will receive Cetuximab 500 mg/m\^2 via intravenous (IV) infusion once every 2 weeks (Q2W). Per protocol treatment of calderasib and Cetuximab has no maximum number of cycles. Participants will be treated until any of the criteria for discontinuation of study intervention are met.
