Study Details

This is a Phase 1/2, multicenter, randomized, open-label umbrella platform study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of investigational agents with or without pembrolizumab and/or chemotherapy, for the treatment of participants with second line (2L) esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) who have previously been exposed to PD-1/PD-L1 based treatment.

Arms

  • Active Comparator: Paclitaxel or irinotecan
    Participants receive paclitaxel 80-100 mg/m\^2 intravenously (IV) on Days 1, 8, and 15 every 28-day cycle until progressive disease (PD) or discontinuation, or irinotecan 180 mg/m\^2 IV on day 1 of every 14-day cycle until PD or discontinuation.
  • Experimental: Pembrolizumab + MK-4830 + paclitaxel or irinotecan
    Participants receive pembrolizumab 200 mg IV once every 3 weeks (Q3W) for up to 35 cycles (cycle=21 days) or until PD or discontinuation + MK-4830 800 mg IV Q3W up to 35 infusions + paclitaxel 80-100 mg/m\^2 IV on Days 1, 8, and 15 every 28-day cycle until PD or discontinuation or irinotecan 180 mg/m\^2 180 mg/m\^2 on day 1 every 14-day cycle until PD or discontinuation.
  • Experimental: Pembrolizumab + MK-4830 + lenvatinib
    Participants receive pembrolizumab 200 mg IV Q3W up to 35 cycles (cycle=21 days) until PD or discontinuation + MK-4830 800 mg IV Q3W up to 35 infusions + lenvatinib 20 mg oral administration every day until PD or discontinuation.
  • Experimental: Sacituzumab tirumotecan 4 mg/kg
    Participants will receive 4 mg/kg of sacituzumab tirumotecan via IV infusion on Days 1, 15, and 29 of each 42-day cycle until discontinuation.
  • Experimental: Sacituzumab tirumotecan 5 mg/kg
    Participants will receive 5 mg/kg of sacituzumab tirumotecan via IV infusion on Days 1, 15, and 29 of each 42-day cycle until discontinuation.
