• Status: Recruiting
• Trial end date: 2024-01-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

This study includes a Dose Escalation Part to identify the recommended combination dose (RCD) and a Dose Expansion Part to further evaluate efficacy and safety.

The primary objectives:

Dose Escalation: To assess the safety and tolerability of patritumab deruxtecan (U3-1402) and osimertinib in subjects with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with an EGFR exon 19 deletion or L858R mutation with tumor progression after treatment with osimertinib, and to determine the recommended combination dose (RCD).

Second-Line Dose Expansion Arm 1 and Arm 1b: To assess the preliminary antitumor activity of patritumab deruxtecan and osimertinib in subjects with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with an EGFR exon 19 deletion or L858R mutation with tumor progression after treatment with osimertinib. Note: One or both of the study arms may open with one or two distinct dosing schedules.

Second-Line Dose Expansion Arm 2: To assess the preliminary antitumor activity of patritumab deruxtecan monotherapy in subjects with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with an EGFR exon 19 deletion or L858R mutation with tumor progression after treatment with osimertinib.

First-Line Dose Expansion: To assess the safety and tolerability of patritumab deruxtecan and osimertinib in subjects with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with an EGFR exon 19 deletion or L858R mutation without prior systemic treatment for locally advanced or metastatic disease.

Inclusion Criteria:

Inclusion Criteria Specific to Dose Escalation and Second-Line Dose Expansion:

• Documentation of EGFR exon 19 deletion or L858R mutation detected from tumor tissue

• Must have received osimertinib for locally advanced or metastatic disease at a dose of 80 mg once daily (QD) for at least 6 weeks and must not miss more than two doses during the 2 weeks prior to the first day of study treatment (Cycle 1, Day 1)

• Must not have received any other prior systemic cancer therapies in the locally advanced/metastatic setting

Only tissue-based testing will be accepted.

• Participants must have previously untreated locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC and must be eligible to receive first-line treatment with osimertinib, according to the judgment of the investigator. Prior adjuvant or neo-adjuvant therapy (chemotherapy, radiotherapy, investigational agents; except with osimertinib) is permitted.

All Participants:

Participants must meet all criteria to be eligible for inclusion in this study:

The pre-treatment biopsy is optional for participants enrolled in the Dose Escalation Part (all cohorts). Required tumor tissue can be provided as either:

• Pre-treatment tumor biopsy from at least 1 lesion not previously irradiated and amenable to core biopsy OR

• Platelet count: ≥100 000/mm^3 or ≥100 × 10^9/L (platelet transfusions are not allowed up to 14 days prior to Cycle 1, Day 1 to meet eligibility)

• Serum creatinine (SCr) OR creatinine clearance (CrCl): SCr ≤1.5 × ULN, OR CrCl ≥30 mL/min as calculated using the Cockcroft-Gault equation or measured CrCl; confirmation of CrCl is only required when creatinine is >1.5 × ULN

• Aspartate aminotransferase/ alanine aminotransferase: ≤3 × ULN (if liver metastases are present, ≤5 × ULN)

• Total bilirubin: ≤1.5 × ULN if no liver metastases (<3 × ULN in the presence of documented Gilbert's syndrome [unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia] or liver metastases)

• Serum albumin ; ≥2.5 g/dL

• Prothrombin time (PT) or PT-international normalized ratio (INR) and Activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) / Partial thromboplastin time (PTT): ≤1.5 × ULN, except for subjects on coumarin-derivative anticoagulants or other similar anticoagulant therapy, who must have PT-INR within therapeutic range as deemed appropriate by the Investigator.
