Pembrolizumab (Immunotherapy Drug) in Combination With Guadecitabine and Mocetinostat (Epigenetic Drugs) for Patients With Advanced Lung Cancer.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Patient must be capable, willing, and able to provide written, informed consent

- Age ≥ 18 years old

- Histologically-confirmed stage IIIb or IV NSCLC by the enrolling institution

- Patients must have progressed on treatment with an anti-PD1/PD-L1 monoclonal antibody
(mAb) administered either as monotherapy, or in combination with other checkpoint
inhibitors or other therapies. PD-1/PD-L1 treatment progression is defined by meeting
all of the following criteria:

a. Has received at least 2 doses of an approved anti-PD-1/PD-L1 mAb b. Has
demonstrated disease progression after PD-1/PD-L1 as defined by RECIST v1.1 (if
treatment received as part of a clinical trial with formal RECIST reads performed) or
a combination of clinical AND radiologic evidence of progression, as determined by the
treating investigator. The initial evidence of disease progression (PD) should ideally
be confirmed by a second assessment no less than 4 weeks from the date of the first
documented PD, unless there is rapid clinical progression such that follow up imaging
is infeasible.

i. Note: Second imaging for confirmation of PD can be waived in rapidly progressing
patients after consultation with the Sponsor/PI. Progressive disease has been
documented within 24 weeks from the last dose of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 mAb.

- Measurable by RECIST v1.1 (those undergoing pre-treatment resection must have imaging
assessment after resection to determine measurability)

a. Previously irradiated sites of tumor may be considered measurable if there is
radiographic progression at that site subsequent to the time of completing radiation.

- Have a safely biopsiable tumor lesion and be willing to undergo a pre-treatment and
ontreatment core biopsy

1. Pretreatment tissue should be collected via core biopsy, ideally of a non-target
lesion.

2. Patients may not have intervening systemic anti-cancer therapy between the time
of pre-treatment biopsy/resection and initiating study treatment.

- ECOG performance status of 0-1.

- Adequate hematologic, renal, and/or hepatic function (following criteria must be met
within 28 days of C1D1):

a. ANC ≥ 1,500/mm3 (≥ 1. 5 × 10^9/L) b. Hemoglobin ≥ 9.0 g/dL c. Platelet count ≥
100,000/ul (≥ 100,000 per mm3) d. Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 x ULN OR, for subjects with
creatinine levels >1.5 x ULN, an estimated creatinine clearance of ≥ 40 mL/min
calculated using the Cockcroft and Gault formula ((140-Age) • Mass (kg)/(72 •
creatinine mg/dL); multiply by 0.85 if female) e. Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN OR, for
subjected with total bilirubin levels >1.5 x ULN, a direct bilirubin ≤ ULN f. AST and
ALT ≤ 3 x UNL (unless elevated transaminases are felt to be directly related to
metastatic disease involving the liver, in which case AST and ALT must be ≤ 5x ULN)

- Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) † must have a negative serum or urine
pregnancy test (minimum sensitivity 25 IU/L or equivalent units of HCG) within 28 days
of C1D1.

† A woman of childbearing potential is a sexually mature female who: has not undergone
a hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy; or has not been naturally postmenopausal for
at least 24 consecutive months (i.e. has had menses at any time in the preceding 24
consecutive months).

- Effective contraception:

1. Women of childbearing potential must agree to practice 2 effective methods of
contraception from the time of signing the informed consent form through 120 days
after the last dose of study therapy, or agree to completely abstain from
heterosexual intercourse.

2. Male subjects, even if surgically sterilized (i.e., status post vasectomy) must
agree to 1 of the following: practice effective barrier contraception during the
entire study treatment period and through 120 days after the last dose of study
therapy, or agree to completely abstain from heterosexual intercourse.

- Willing to comply with clinical trial instructions and requirements, including
mandatory biopsies.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Presence of targetable EGFR mutations or ALK re-arrangements.

a. All patients with adenocarcinoma histology must be tested for EGFR and ALK status,
unless a KRAS mutation is detected in which case EGFR/ALK testing is not required.

- History of allergy to study drug components or history of severe hypersensitivity
reaction of any monoclonal antibody.

- History of immune-related adverse event wit prior PD-1/PD-L1 therapy that required
discontinuation of treatment

- History of (non-infectious) pneumonitis that required steroids, or current
pneumonitis.

- Any systemic anti-cancer therapy within 3 weeks prior to C1D1 of study therapy, with
the following exception:

a. Any prior investigational anti-cancer therapy is not permitted within 4 weeks of
C1D1.

- Ongoing adverse event from previously administered systemic anti-cancer therapy unless
has recovered to ≤ grade 1 or at baseline prior to C1D1.

a. Subjects with any grade alopecia or ≤ Grade 2 neuropathy are an exception to this
criterion and may qualify for the study.

- Patients who have not previously been treated with platinum-based based doublet
chemotherapy and who, in the judgment of the investigator, have rapidly progressive
disease such that serious complications may arise from disease progression within the
next 12 weeks will be excluded.

- Non-CNS radiotherapy within 1 week prior to C1D1 of study therapy

- Active infection requiring systemic therapy

- Known history of previous clinical diagnosis of tuberculosis.

- Prior or current systemic immunosuppressive therapy (> 10 mg/day prednisone
equivalents) within 7 days prior to C1D1 of study therapy. Inhaled, ocular,

active autoimmune disease.

a. Adrenal replacement doses are permitted in the absence of active autoimmune
disease.

absence of an external trigger are permitted to enroll.

i. Replacement therapy (e.g., thyroxine, insulin, or physiologic corticosteroid
replacement therapy for adrenal or pituitary insufficiency, etc.) is not considered a
form of systemic treatment.

- Other active malignancy that is progressing, requires concurrent intervention, and/or
could be mistaken for the malignancy under study during disease assessments.

- Patients with previous malignancies (except non-melanoma skin cancers, and the
following in situ cancers: bladder, gastric, colon, cervical/dysplasia, melanoma, or
breast) are excluded unless definitive therapy has been completed at least 1 year

malignancy and no additional therapy is required or anticipated to be required during
the study period.
