Summary
This is a study of pembrolizumab (MK-3475) with or without lenvatinib (E7080/MK-7902) as a
first line intervention in a PD-L1 selected population with participants with recurrent or
metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
Hypotheses include:
- Pembrolizumab + lenvatinib is superior to pembrolizumab + placebo with respect to
Objective Response Rate (ORR) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version
1.1 (RECIST 1.1) by blinded independent central review (BICR).
- Pembrolizumab + lenvatinib is superior to pembrolizumab + placebo with respect to
Progression Free Survival (PFS) per RECIST 1.1 as assessed by BICR.
- Pembrolizumab + lenvatinib is superior to pembrolizumab + placebo with respect to
overall survival (OS).
