Pharmacokinetic and Safety Study of Lower Doses of Ceritinib Taken With a Low-fat Meal Versus 750 mg of Ceritinib in the Fasted State in Adult Patients With (ALK-positive) Metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)

NCT02299505

Description:

A Phase I study to assess the systemic exposure, effiacy, and safety of 450 mg ceritinib taken with a low-fat meal and 600 mg ceritinib taken with a low-fat meal as compared with that of 750 mg ceritinib taken in the fasted state in adult patients with ALK rearranged (ALK-positive) metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)

Purpose

A Phase I study to assess the systemic exposure, effiacy, and safety of 450 mg ceritinib taken with a low-fat meal and 600 mg ceritinib taken with a low-fat meal as compared with that of 750 mg ceritinib taken in the fasted state in adult patients with ALK rearranged (ALK-positive) metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)

Detailed Description

      This was an open-label, randomized, multi-center, parallel design, Phase I study in which the
      systemic exposure, efficacy and safety of ceritinib administered at 450 mg or 600 mg with a
      low-fat meal vs 750 mg in the fasted state was assessed in subjects with ALK+ NSCLC following
      multiple oral daily dosing of ceritinib. Subjects were randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to once
      daily doses of oral ceritinib (450 mg following a low-fat meal, 600 mg following a low-fat
      meal or ceritinib 750 mg administered on an empty stomach). Randomization was stratified by
      brain metastases at Screening (presence or absence) and by prior treatment (prior crizotinib
      use with ALK+ determined by Fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH); crizotinib-naïve but
      could be previously treated with other systemic anti-cancer therapy with ALK+ determined by
      FISH, or treatment-naïve subjects with ALK+ by IHC).
