  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • General inclusion criteria
  • Age ≥18 years. Because no dosing or adverse event data are currently available on the use of navlimetostat in combination with pumitamig in patients <18 years of age, children are excluded from this study.
  • Have at least one measurable lesion as the target lesion based on RECIST v1.1. Lesions treated with prior local treatment (radiation, ablation, etc) are generally not considered target lesions. If the lesion with prior local treatment is the only target lesion, evidence must be provided to demonstrate disease progression.
  • MTAP loss as defined by homozygous deletion on NGS and/or by absent MTAP protein expression by IHC. Test can be performed on an archival tissue. External testing by a commercial vendor (e.g. Foundation Medicine, Caris, BostonGene, Tempus) or internal assay (e.g. UT MD Anderson MAPP or IHC) is accepted.
  • ECOG performance status 0-1.
  • Histologically or cytologically confirmed non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Navlimetostat and Pumitamig in people with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 36 inclusion and 40 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Sep 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Natalie Vokes Natalie Vokes, MD ((713) 745-1461, nvokes@mdanderson.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Safety and Adverse Events (AEs) (time frame: Through study completion; an average of 1 year). 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 25 Sep 2026.
