Clinical Trial Summary

A phase II, open-label, multicenter, two cohorts, prospective clinical study to investigate the efficacy and safety of tislelizumab (anti-pd1 antibody) combined with chemotherapy with or without bevacizumab in non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer patients with EGFR sensitizing mutation who failed EGFR TKI (Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor) therapy.

Description:

Although EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) have improved the survival of EGFR mutated NSCLC pts, drug resistance inevitably develops in almost all pts. Tislelizumab (tis), an anti-PD-1 mAb, has shown improved efficacy when combined with chemotherapy in pts with advanced EGFR-wt NSCLC with a tolerable safety profile. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tislelizumab plus carboplatin and Nab-paclitaxel（cohort 1）or tislelizumab plus Nab-paclitaxel and bevacizumab （cohort 2） in EGFR-mut nsq-NSCLC pts failed to EGFR TKI therapies.

4. Received EGFR TKI treatment within 2 weeks

5. Treatment with any approved systemic anti-cancer therapy or systemic immune-stimulatory agents (including but not limited to interferons, interleukin IL-2, and tumor necrosis factor) within 28 days prior to initiation of study treatment.

6. Clinically uncontrolled pleural effusion or ascites that requires pleurocentesis or abdominal tapping for drainage within 2 weeks prior to initiation of study treatment.

7. Active leptomeningeal disease or uncontrolled brain metastasis.

8. History of allergic reactions to any study drugs.

9. CrCl < 45 mL/min

10. Patients with active viral hepatitis that requires treatment.

11. Active autoimmune diseases that requires treatment and may affect study treatment estimated by investigator.

12. Any condition that required systemic treatment with either corticosteroids or any other immunosuppressive medication that may affect study treatment estimated by investigator.

13. Severe chronic or active infections requiring systemic antibacterial, antifungal or antiviral therapy.

14. History of hemoptysis, i.e., coughing up at least one-half teaspoon of fresh blood, within 3 months prior to enrollment. (Cohort 2)

15. Imaging shows tumor invasion of a large vessel (e.g., pulmonary artery or superior vena cava) that the investigator determines is at risk for bleeding. (Cohort 2)

16. Had minor surgical procedures, such as tube placement, within 48 hours prior to first bevacizumab treatment. (Cohort 2)

17. Recently treated with a full dose oral or parenteral anticoagulant or thrombolytic agent. Prophylactic using anticoagulants is allowed. (Cohort 2)

18. History or test results indicating an inherited bleeding tendency or coagulation disorder that may increase the risk of bleeding (cohort 2)

19. uncontrolled hypertension (systolic blood pressure >150 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure >100 mmHg) (cohort 2)

20. Clinically meaningful (e.g., active) cardiovascular disease that, in the judgment of the investigator, is intolerant to bevacizumab therapy (cohort 2)

21. Non-cured wound, peptic ulcer in active phase, or fracture (cohort 2)

22. History of abdominal fistula, gastrointestinal perforation, intra-abdominal abscess or thrombotic disease within 6 months judged by the investigator to be intolerant to bevacizumab treatment (Cohort 2)

23. With a history of interstitial lung disease, non-infectious pneumonitis, or uncontrolled systemic diseases, including diabetes, hypertension, pulmonary fibrosis, acute lung diseases, etc.

24. Have known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection.

25. Any major surgical procedure requiring general anesthesia = 28 days before initiation of study treatment.

26. Underlying medical conditions (including laboratory abnormalities) or alcohol or drug abuse or dependence that would be unfavorable for the administration of study drug or affect the explanation of drug toxicity or AEs (Adverse Events) or result in insufficient or might impair compliance with study conduct.

27. Concurrent participation in another clinical study.

28. Pregnant or lactating women, or male and female patients who plan to have children during the study period. -
