QUILT 2.023: A Study of N-803 in Combination With Current Standard of Care vs Standard of Care as First-Line Treatment for Patients With Stage 3 or 4 NSCLC.

NCT03520686

Description:

This is a phase 3, open-label, 3-cohort, randomized study to compare the safety and efficacy of N-803 in combination with the current standard of care (experimental arms) versus standard of care alone (control arms), as first-line treatment for subjects with stage 3 or 4 advanced or metastatic NSCLC. Treatment will continue for up to 2 years, or until the patient experiences confirmed progressive disease or unacceptable toxicity, withdraws consent, or if the investigator feels that it is no longer in the patient's best interest to continue treatment. Patients will be followed for disease progression, post-therapies, and survival through 24 months after the first dose of study drug.

Eligibility Criteria

        Inclusion Criteria:

          1. Age ≥ 18 years old.

          2. Able to understand and provide a signed informed consent that fulfills the relevant
             IRB or Independent Ethics Committee (IEC) guidelines.

          3. Histologically-confirmed stage 3 or 4 NSCLC disease. Subjects with stage 3 disease
             must not be candidates for treatment with surgical resection or chemoradiation.

          4. Subjects must not have received prior systemic chemotherapy for advanced or metastatic
             NSCLC. Previous neoadjuvant/adjuvant chemotherapy is allowed if completed ≥ 6 months
             before diagnosis of metastatic disease. Subject's with newly-diagnosed stage 4 NSCLC
             may have previously received systemic chemotherapy for stage 3 NSCLC.

          5. For Cohort A only: NSCLC tumors must have PD-L1 expression (i.e. a TPS ≥1%) as
             determined by an FDA-approved test.

          6. The subject's tumor must not harbor an EGFR sensitizing (activating) mutation or ALK
             translocation or targetable genomic aberration in BRAF, ROS1 or NTRK. EGFR sensitizing
             mutations are those mutations that are amenable to treatment with tyrosine kinase
             inhibitors including erlotinib, gefitinib, or afatinib. Investigators must be able to
             produce the source documentation of the EGFR mutation, ALK translocation, and BRAF,
             ROS1, and NTRK status. If any of the genomic changes described above are detected,
             additional information regarding the mutation status of other molecules is not
             required. If unable to test for these molecular changes, formalin fixed paraffin
             embedded tumor tissue of any age should be submitted to a central laboratory
             designated by the Sponsor for such testing. Subjects will not be randomized until the
             EGFR , BRAFT, ROS1, and NTRK mutation status and ALK translocation status is available
             in source documentation at the site.

          7. ECOG performance status of 0 or 1.

          8. Measurable tumor lesions according to RECIST 1.1.

          9. Must be willing to release tumor biopsy specimen used for diagnosis of advanced or
             metastatic NSCLC (if available) for exploratory tumor molecular profiling. If tumor
             biopsy specimen is not available, subjects can still be enrolled.

         10. Must be willing to provide blood samples prior to the start of treatment on this study
             for exploratory tumor molecular profiling analysis.

         11. Must be willing to provide a tumor biopsy specimen 9 weeks after the start of
             treatment for exploratory analyses, if considered safe by the Investigator.

         12. Ability to attend required study visits and return for adequate follow-up, as required
             by this protocol

         13. Agreement to practice effective contraception for female subjects of child-bearing
             potential and non-sterile males. Female subjects of child-bearing potential must agree
             to use effective contraception for up to 1 year after completion of therapy, and
             non-sterile male subjects must agree to use a condom for up to 4 months after
             treatment. Effective contraception includes surgical sterilization (eg, vasectomy,
             tubal ligation), two forms of barrier methods (eg, condom, diaphragm) used with
             spermicide, intrauterine devices (IUDs), hormonal therapy, and abstinence.

        Exclusion Criteria:

          1. Serious uncontrolled concomitant disease that would contraindicate the use of the
             investigational drug used in this study or that would put the subject at high risk for
             treatment-related complications.

          2. A history of prior malignancy with the following exceptions: cancer treated with
             curative therapy with no disease recurrence for >3 years, non-metastatic prostate
             cancer controlled with hormonal therapy, or under observation; non-metastatic thyroid
             cancer; basal or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, superficial bladder cancer, or
             in situ cervical cancer that has undergone successful definitive resection.

          3. Systemic autoimmune disease (eg, lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, Addison's
             disease, or autoimmune disease associated with lymphoma).

          4. History of organ transplant requiring immunosuppression; or history of pneumonitis or
             interstitial lung disease requiring treatment with systemic steroids; or a history of
             receiving systemic steroid therapy or any other immunosuppressive medication ≤ 3 days
             prior to study initiation. Daily steroid replacement therapy (eg, prednisone or
             hydrocortisone) and corticosteroid use to manage AEs are permitted.

          5. Prior systemic chemotherapy, major surgery, or thoracic radiation within 3 weeks of
             study initiation.

          6. Requirement for other forms of anticancer treatment while on trial, including
             maintenance therapy, other radiation therapy, and/or surgery. Palliative radiation is
             permitted.

          7. Known CNS metastases or carcinomatous meningitis. Subjects with previously treated,
             stable CNS metastases (no evidence of progression for ≥ 4 weeks, and resolution of
             neurologic symptoms to baseline state) are permitted in this study.
