Purpose

This phase II LUNG-MAP treatment trial studies how well selpercatinib works in treating patients with RET fusion-positive non-small cell lung cancer that is stage IV or has come back (recurrent). Selpercatinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

Detailed Description

      PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

      I. To evaluate the objective response rate (ORR) (confirmed complete or partial response) by
      blinded independent centralized review (BICR) associated with selpercatinib (LOXO-292) in
      patients with previously-treated stage IV or recurrent RET fusion-positive non-small cell
      lung cancer (NSCLC).

      SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

      I. To evaluate the duration of BICR-assessed response among BICR responders. II. To evaluate
      the frequency and severity of toxicities. III. To evaluate the investigator-assessed
      objective response rate (confirmed complete or partial response).

      IV. To evaluate duration of investigator-assessed response among patients with a response as
      determined by the local investigator.

      V. To evaluate investigator-assessed progression-free survival (IA-PFS). VI. To evaluate
      BICR-assessed PFS. VII. To evaluate overall survival (OS).

      VIII. Among patients with brain metastases at baseline:

      VIIIa. To evaluate the central nervous system (CNS) response rate (confirmed complete
      response [CR]).

      VIIIb. To evaluate the duration of intracranial response among patients with a CNS response.

      TRANSLATIONAL MEDICINE OBJECTIVES:

      I. To collect, process, and bank cell-free deoxyribonucleic acid (cfDNA) at baseline,
      progression, and end of treatment for future development of a proposal to evaluate
      comprehensive next-generation sequencing of circulating tumor deoxyribonucleic acid (ctDNA).

      II. To establish a tissue/blood repository from patients with refractory non-small cell lung
      cancer (NSCLC).

      OUTLINE:

      Patients receive selpercatinib orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days 1-28. Cycles repeat
      every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

      After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 6 months for 2 years and
      then at the end of 3 years from date of sub-study registration.

             has not received any treatment for stage IV or recurrent disease), disease progression
             on platinum-based chemotherapy must have occurred within one year from the last date
             that the patient received that therapy. Prior anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapy, alone or in
             combination (e.g. nivolumab, pembrolizumab, or durvalumab) is allowed

          -  Patients must be negative for all additional validated oncogenic drivers that could

                  rechecking has a blood pressure within the parameters above

          -  Patients must not have any impairment of gastrointestinal function or gastrointestinal
             disease that may significantly alter the absorption of LOXO-292 (e.g., ulcerative
             disease, uncontrolled nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, malabsorption syndrome, small bowel
             resection, or active peptic ulcer disease)

          -  Patients must not be planning to receive any strong inhibitors or inducers of CYP3A4
             at least 14 days prior to sub-study registration and throughout protocol treatment

             prior to sub-study registration and throughout protocol treatment

          -  Patients must not be pregnant or nursing. Women study patients of reproductive
             potential and fertile men study patients and their partners must abstain or use
             effective contraception (including barrier method) while receiving study treatment and
             for at least 3 months after the last dose of LOXO-292. Male study patients must agree
             not to donate sperm for 6 months after the last dose of LOXO-292. A woman is
             considered to be of "reproductive potential" if she has had menses at any time in the
             preceding 12 consecutive months. In addition to routine contraceptive methods,
             "effective contraception" also includes heterosexual celibacy and surgery intended to
             prevent pregnancy (or with a side-effect of pregnancy prevention) defined as a
             hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy or bilateral tubal ligation. However, if at any
             point a previously celibate patient chooses to become heterosexually active during the
             time period for use of contraceptive measures outlined in the protocol, he/she is
             responsible for beginning contraceptive measures
