What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Objective Response Rate (ORR) Per Investigator by Blood TMB (bTMB) Within PD-L1 Subgroup (TMB Cut-point = 16 Mutations/MB)

    Objective response rate (ORR) is defined as the percent of treated participants with a best overall response of a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) assessed by investigator per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1).

    PR is at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. CR is disappearance of all target lesions and a reduction in pathological lymph node (whether target or non-target) short axis to <10 mm.

    Blood tumor mutational burden (bTMB) is the total number of nonsynonymous somatic mutations produced by a tumor that are detected in serum.

    CR+PR, confidence interval based on the Clopper and Pearson method.

    Measured: From first dose up to the date of objectively documented progression, or the date of initiation of palliative local therapy or the date of initiation of subsequent anticancer therapy (up to approximately 58 months)

  2. Objective Response Rate (ORR) Per Investigator by Blood TMB (bTMB) Within PD-L1 Subgroup (Blood TMB Cut-point = 21-mutations/MB)

    Objective response rate (ORR) is defined as the percent of treated participants with a best overall response of a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) assessed by investigator per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1).

    PR is at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. CR is disappearance of all target lesions and a reduction in pathological lymph node (whether target or non-target) short axis to <10 mm.

    Blood tumor mutational burden (bTMB) is the total number of nonsynonymous somatic mutations produced by a tumor that are detected in serum.

    CR+PR, confidence interval based on the Clopper and Pearson method.

    Measured: From first dose up to the date of objectively documented progression, or the date of initiation of palliative local therapy or the date of initiation of subsequent anticancer therapy (up to approximately 58 months)

  3. Objective Response Rate (ORR) Per Investigator by Tissue TMB Within PD-L1 Subgroup (Tissue TMB Cut-point = 10-mutations/MB)

    Objective response rate (ORR) is defined as the percent of treated participants with a best overall response of a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) assessed by investigator per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1).

    PR is at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. CR is disappearance of all target lesions and a reduction in pathological lymph node (whether target or non-target) short axis to <10 mm.

    Tissue tumor mutational burden (tTMB) is the total number of nonsynonymous somatic mutations produced by a tumor that are detected in tumor tissue samples.

    CR+PR, confidence interval based on the Clopper and Pearson method.

    Measured: From first dose up to the date of objectively documented progression, or the date of initiation of palliative local therapy or the date of initiation of subsequent anticancer therapy (up to approximately 58 months)

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Objective Response Rate (ORR) for All Treated Participants by Investigator Per RECIST 1.1

    Objective response rate (ORR) is defined as the percent of treated participants with a best overall response of a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) assessed by investigator per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1).

    Partial Response (PR) is at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. Complete Response (CR) is disappearance of all target lesions and a reduction in pathological lymph node (whether target or non-target) short axis to <10 mm.

    CR+PR, confidence interval based on the Clopper and Pearson method.

    Measured: From first dose until the date of objectively documented progression, or the date of initiation of palliative local therapy or the date of initiation of subsequent anticancer therapy, whichever occurs first (Up to approximately 67 months)

  2. Disease Control Rate (DCR) for Part 1

    Disease control rate (DCR) is the percent of treated participants with a best overall response of a complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD), assessed by investigator per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1).

    PR is at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, using the baseline sum diameters as reference. CR is disappearance of all target lesions and a reduction in short axis to <10 mm of any pathological lymph nodes (target or non-target). SD is neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for progressive disease (PD), taking smallest sum diameters as reference. PD is at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking the smallest sum as reference. The sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. (one or more new lesions is also considered progression). CR+PR, confidence interval based on the Clopper and Pearson method.

    Measured: From first dose until the date of objectively documented progression, or the date of initiation of palliative local therapy or the date of initiation of subsequent anticancer therapy, whichever occurs first (Up to approximately 67 months)

  3. Duration of Response (DOR) for Part 1

    DOR is the time between first confirmed response (Complete/Partial Response) and first documented tumor progression (per RECIST 1.1) or death due to any cause. Participants who don't progress or die are censored on the date of their last evaluable tumor assessment. Participants who started subsequent anti-cancer therapy without prior reported progression were censored at the last evaluable tumor assessment prior to or on the date of subsequent anti-cancer therapy.

    PR is at least 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, using baseline sum diameters as reference. CR is disappearance of all target lesions and reduction in short axis to <10 mm of any pathological lymph nodes (target or non-target). Progressive Disease (PD) is at least 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking the smallest sum as reference. The sum must also show an overall increase of > 5 mm. (one or more new lesions is also progression). Median computed using Kaplan-Meier method.

    Measured: From first dose to the date of the first documented tumor progression or death due to any cause (Up to approximately 67 months)

  4. Time to Response (TTR) for Part 1

    TTR is the time taken from first dosing date to the time the criteria for Complete Response (CR)/Partial Response (PR) are first met.

    Partial Response (PR) is at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. Complete Response (CR) is disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to <10 mm.

    Measured: From first dose to the time the criteria for Complete Response/Partial Response are first met (Up to approximately 67 months)

  5. Progression Free Survival (PFS)

    PFS is defined as the time from first dosing date to the date of the first documented tumor progression (per RECIST 1.1) or death due to any cause.

    Participants who neither progress nor die will be censored on the date of their last evaluable tumor assessment. Participants who started any subsequent anti-cancer therapy without a prior reported progression will be censored at the last evaluable tumor assessment prior to or on the date of initiation of subsequent anti-cancer therapy.

    Progressive Disease (PD) is at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking the smallest sum on study as reference. The sum must also show an overall increase of > 5 mm. (one or more new lesions is also progression).

    Median calculated using Kaplan-Meier estimates.

    Measured: From first dose to the date of the first documented tumor progression or death due to any causes (Assessed up to approximately 67 months)

  6. Overall Survival (OS)

    OS is defined as the time from first dosing date to the date of death. If a participant didn't die, OS will be censored on the last date the participant was known to be alive.

    Median based on Kaplan-Meier estimates.

    Measured: From first dose to the date of death (Assessed up to approximately 67 months)

  7. Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) for Study Part 2

    An Adverse Event (AE) is any new untoward medical occurrence or worsening preexisting medical condition in a treated participant and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with treatment.

    An AE can be any unfavorable, unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of treatment, whether or not related to the treatment.

    Measured: From first dose to 30 days after last dosing date (assessed up to approximately 27 months)

  8. Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) for Study Part 2

    A Serious Adverse Event (SAE) results in death, is life-threatening (defined as an event in which the participant was at risk of death at the time of the event; it does not refer to an event which hypothetically might have caused death if it were more severe), or requires inpatient hospitalization or causes prolongation of existing hospitalization.

    Measured: From first dose to 30 days after last dosing date (assessed up to approximately 27 months)

  9. Number of Participants With Select Adverse Events (AEs) for Study Part 2

    An Adverse Event (AE) is any new untoward medical occurrence or worsening preexisting medical condition in a treated participant and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with treatment.

    An AE can be any unfavorable, unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of treatment, whether or not related to the treatment.

    Measured: From first dose to 30 days after last dosing date (up to approximately 27 months)

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 May 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 35 sites in United States, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy and 3 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 6 Jun 2023). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Objective Response Rate (ORR) Per Investigator by Blood TMB (bTMB) Within PD-L1 Subgroup (TMB Cut-point = 16 Mutations/MB) (time frame: From first dose up to the date of objectively documented progression, or the date of initiation of palliative local therapy or the date of initiation of subsequent anticancer therapy (up to approximately 58 months)). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03001882, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 May 2024.
