Phase III Study Evaluating Efficacy and Safety of Canakinumab in Combination With Docetaxel in Adult Subjects With Non-small Cell Lung Cancers as a Second or Third Line Therapy

NCT03626545

Description:

This phase III study is designed to evaluate the role of IL-1β inhibition in combination with docetaxel in subjects with advanced NSCLC previously treated with PD-(L)1 inhibitors and platinum-based chemotherapy. The randomized III part will be preceded by a safety run-in part in which the recommended dose of the combination of canakinumab and docetaxel will be confirmed.

Eligibility Criteria

        Key Inclusion Criteria:

          -  Histologically confirmed advanced (stage IIIB) or metastatic NSCLC.

          -  Subject has received one prior platinum-based chemotherapy and one prior PD-(L)1
             inhibitor therapy for locally advanced or metastatic disease.

          -  Subject with ECOG performance status (PS) of 0 or 1.

          -  Subject with at least 1 evaluable (measurable or non-measurable) lesion by RECIST 1.1
             in solid tumors criteria.

        Key Exclusion Criteria:

          -  Subject who previously received docetaxel, canakinumab (or another IL-1β inhibitor),
             or any systemic therapy for their locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC other than one
             platinum-based chemotherapy and one prior PD-(L)1 inhibitor.

          -  Subject with EGFRor ALK positive tumor.

          -  History of severe hypersensitivity reaction to monoclonal antibodies, taxanes or
             excipients of docetaxel or canakinumab.

        Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion may apply.
