About this study

Official title: A Multicentre Phase II, Open-label, Non-randomized Study Evaluating Platinum-Pemetrexed-Atezolizumab (+/- Bevacizumab) for Patients With Stage IIIB/IV Non-squamous Non-small Cell Lung Cancer With EGFR Mutations, ALK Rearrangement or ROS1 Fusion Progressing After Targeted Therapies

The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of the combination of Platinum (carboplatin or cisplatin), Pemetrexed, Atezolizumab+/- Bevacizumab if eligible, in stage IIIB/IV non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer patients with progression-enhancing mutations following targeted therapies.

Read the detailed description

In patients with an EGFR mutation, several phase III studies comparing EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) with chemotherapy have shown a benefit of TKI over chemotherapy, with no demonstrated benefit on overall survival. After a first line of treatment with a TKI, most patients progress and are eligible according to the mechanism of progression to a TKI of 3rd generation in case of T790M resistance or chemotherapy. In patients with ALK translocation, crizotinib has been shown to be beneficial in first line compared to a platinum doublet.Despite these major advances, most patients are progressing after targeted treatments and chemotherapy and are facing the problem of anti-PD1 / PDL1 treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Objective Response Rate (ORR) According to RECIST 1.1

    The objective response rate (ORR) is defined as the percentage of patients who achieved an objective response after 4 cycles of induction treatment (or before progression). Objective response will be considered in case of radiologically confirmed complete (CR) or partial response (PR) according to RECIST v 1.1 criteria (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1) by the masked, independent central board. Per RECIST v1.0, for target lesions and assessed by MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR. Patients not meeting these criteria, including patients without any post-baseline tumour assessment, will be considered non-responders. The confirmation of response in accordance with RECIST v.1.1 is not required, but ORR with confirmation may be evaluated as an exploratory endpoint.

    Measured: After the end of 4 cycles (15 weeks)

Secondary outcomes (3)

  1. The Progression-free Survival (PFS)

    PFS is defined as the time relapsed between inclusion and disease progression (according to RECIST v1.1 criteria as assessed by the investigator) or death from any cause, whichever occurs first.

    Patients who have not progressed and who have not died at the time of analysis will be censored at the time of last tumour assessment date. If no tumour assessments were performed after the date of the first occurrence of a CR or PR, PFS will be censored at the date of the first occurrence of a CR or PR plus 1 day. Progression is defined according to Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST v1.1) as at least a 20% increase in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum recorded on study, with an absolute increase of at least 5 mm, or unequivocal progression of non-target lesions, or the appearance of new lesions.

    Measured: 1 year

  2. The Overall Survival

    OS is defined as the time between the date of inclusion and death from any cause. Patients who are not reported as having died at the date of analysis will be censored at the date when they were last known to be alive. Patients who do not have post-baseline information will be censored at the date of inclusion plus 1 day.

    Measured: 2 years

  3. The Duration of Response

    Duration of response will be assessed in patients who had an objective response (CR or PR) as determined by the investigator using RECIST v1.1. DOR is defined as the time interval from the date of the first occurrence of a CR or PR (whichever status is recorded first) until the first date that progressive disease or death is documented, whichever occurs first. Patients who have not progressed and who have not died at the time of analysis will be censored at the time of last tumour assessment date. If no tumour assessments were performed after the date of the first occurrence of a CR or PR, DOR will be censored at the date of the first occurrence of a CR or PR plus 1 day.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Carboplatin + Pemetrexed + Atezolizumab + Bevacizumab and Carboplatin + Pemetrexed + Atezolizumab in people with NSCLC Stage IIIB and NSCLC Stage IV, run by Centre Francois Baclesse at 31 sites in France.

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 17 inclusion and 62 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 12 May 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 31 sites in France. 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 12 May 2026). 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) According to RECIST 1.1 (time frame: After the end of 4 cycles (15 weeks)). 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 NCT04042558, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 12 May 2026.
