Osimertinib With or Without Bevacizumab in Treating Patients With EGFR Positive Non-small Cell Lung Cancer and Brain Metastases

NCT02971501

Description:

This phase II trial studies how well osimertinib with or without bevacizumab works in treating patients with EGFR positive non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to the brain (brain metastases). Osimertinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Bevacizumab may stop or slow non-small cell lung cancer by blocking the growth of new blood vessels necessary for tumor growth. Giving osimertinib with or without bevacizumab may work better in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer.

Detailed Description

      PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

      I. To determine the progression-free survival with AZD9291 (osimertinib) plus bevacizumab
      compared to AZD9291 (osimertinib) alone.

      SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

      I. To assess the safety and tolerability of the combination of AZD9291 (osimertinib) and
      bevacizumab.

      II. To evaluate the time to progression in the central nervous system (CNS) with AZD9291
      (osimertinib) plus bevacizumab versus single-agent osimertinib.

      III. To determine the overall response rate and the intracranial response rate to the
      combination versus single agent.

      IV. To assess the overall survival in patients receiving AZD9291 (osimertinib) plus
      bevacizumab compared to AZD9291 (osimertinib) alone.

      TRANSLATIONAL OBJECTIVES:

      I. To investigate mechanisms of sensitivity and resistance to combination AZD9291
      (osimertinib) plus bevacizumab versus AZD9291 (osimertinib) by molecularly characterizing
      tumor samples including T790M status.

      II. To assess whether circulating tumor deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) in plasma can be used as
      an indicator of sensitivity and resistance to treatment.

      III. To determine whether an angiogenic signature using a multiplex panel array is associated
      with benefit from the combination of AZD9291 (osimertinib) plus bevacizumab.

      IV. To investigate angiogenesis, immune and signaling pathway markers in tumor samples to
      determine biomarkers predictive of benefit from combination therapy.

      OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.

      ARM I: Patients receive osimertinib orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-21 and bevacizumab
      intravenously (IV) over 30-90 minutes on day 1. Cycles repeat every 21 days in the absence of
      disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

      ARM II: Patients receive osimertinib PO QD on days 1-21. Cycles repeat every 21 days in the
      absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

      After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for a minimum of 4 weeks.
