About this study

Official title: A Phase 2 Randomized, Multicenter, Double-Blind Study of the Glutaminase Inhibitor Telaglenastat With Pembrolizumab and Chemotherapy Versus Placebo With Pembrolizumab and Chemotherapy in First-Line, Metastatic KEAP1/NRF2-Mutated, Nonsquamous, Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)

This is a Phase 2, randomized, multicenter, double-blind study of the glutaminase inhibitor telaglenastat with standard-of-care pembrolizumab and chemotherapy versus placebo with standard-of-care pembrolizumab and chemotherapy for first line treatment of metastatic disease in patients with KEAP1/NRF2-mutated, stage IV, nonsquamous, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The study primary endpoints are PFS per RECIST v. 1.1 and safety. KEAP1/NRF2 mutation status (for eligibility) and STK11/LKB1 status (for stratification) will be determined by next generation sequencing. A commercial liquid biopsy (circulating tumor DNA) NGS test will be provided to study participants free of charge.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression-Free Survival (PFS), Assessed by Investigator per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1

    Duration of investigator-determined PFS per RECIST v1.1 in the intent-to-treat (ITT) population

    Measured: Up to 24 months

  2. Safety and Tolerability of Telaglenastat Plus Standard-of-Care Pembrolizumab and Chemotherapy Assessed by Type, Incidence, Severity, Seriousness, and Study Drug Relatedness of Adverse Events per CTCAE v5.0

    Measured: Up to 55 months

  3. Recommended Phase 2 Dose of Telaglenastat in Combination with Standard-of-Care Pembrolizumab and Chemotherapy Assessed by Incidence and Nature of Protocol Defined Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) During the Safety Run-in Period

    Measured: Up to 6 months

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Objective Response Rate (ORR) for Patients Treated with Telaglenastat plus Standard-of-Care Pembrolizumab and Chemotherapy versus Placebo plus Standard-of-Care Pembrolizumab and Chemotherapy

    ORR is defined as the percentage of patients with complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) according to the RECIST v1.1 criteria as assessed by the investigator.

    Measured: Up to 24 months

  2. Duration of Response (DOR) for Patients Treated with Telaglenastat plus Standard-of-Care Pembrolizumab and Chemotherapy versus Placebo plus Standard-of-Care Pembrolizumab and Chemotherapy

    DOR is defined as the duration of response for patients achieving a CR or PR

    Measured: Up to 24 months

  3. Overall Survival

    Measured: Up to 55 months

  4. PFS in the Subgroup of Patients with Biochemical Evidence of Activation of the NRF2 Pathway

    Measured: Up to 24 months

  5. ORR in the Subgroup of Patients with Biochemical Evidence of Activation of the NRF2 Pathway

    Measured: Up to 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Telaglenastat, Carboplatin Chemotherapy and Pemetrexed Chemotherapy in people with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer and Non-squamous Non-small-cell Lung Cancer, run by Calithera Biosciences, Inc at 102 sites in United States.

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 14 inclusion and 32 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Sep 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 102 sites in United States. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Lack of Clinical Benefit). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Progression-Free Survival (PFS), Assessed by Investigator per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1 (time frame: Up to 24 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 NCT04265534, 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 21 Sep 2022.
