A Phase III Study of HS-20093 Injection Combined With Adebrelimab Versus Docetaxel in Previously Treated Patients With Advanced or Metastatic Non-Squamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Without Actionable Genomic Alterations

This is a multicenter, randomized, open-label, controlled phase III clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of HS-20093 injection combined with adebrelimab versus docetaxel in previously treated patients with advanced or metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer without actionable genomic alterations.

Eligible participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to the experimental arm (HS-20093 and adebrelimab) or the control arm (docetaxel injection). Participants in the experimental arm will receive intravenous infusions of HS-20093 and adebrelimab: HS-20093 at a dose of 8.0 mg/kg every 3 weeks (Q3W) until disease progression or other treatment discontinuation criteria are met; adebrelimab at a dose of 1200 mg Q3W until disease progression or other treatment discontinuation criteria are met. Participants in the control arm will receive docetaxel at a dose of 75 mg/m² Q3W until disease progression or other treatment discontinuation criteria are met. Efficacy and safety will be analyzed and evaluated in both arms following the protocol-specified follow-up procedures.
