Clinical Trial Summary

A clinical study of lurbinectedin(PM01183) alone or in combination with gemcitabine in comparison to docetaxel for the treatment of unresectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)patients

Description:

A randomized-controlled, three-arm, phase II study of lurbinectedin (PM01183) alone or in combination with gemcitabine and a control arm with docetaxel as second-line treatment in unresectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)patients to evaluate the antitumor activity as progression-free survival at four months (PFS4) of PM01183 alone or in combination with gemcitabine as using single agent docetaxel as a reference in the control arm as current standard of care and to analyze overall survival (OS), overall survival rate at 1-year (OS12), duration of response (DR), antitumor activity, as response rate (RR), safety and efficacy profiles of PM01183 alone and in combination with gemcitabine, to be preliminary compared with docetaxel, patients' quality of life (QoL), pharmacokinetics (PK) of PM01183, pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD)correlation and pharmacogenomics (PGx)to explore potential correlations between clinical outcomes and molecular parameters found in tumor and blood samples

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Progression-free Survival Rate at Four Months (PFS4)	The rate estimate of the percentage of patients who are alive and progression-free at 16 weeks (~4 months) after randomization. Progession disease was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. The appearance of one or more new lesions was also considered progression.	At month four after patient inclusion
Secondary	Progression-free Survival	PFS, progression-free survival Progression-free survival (PFS), defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of PD, death (of any cause), or last tumor evaluation. Progession disease was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. The appearance of one or more new lesions was also considered progression.	Time from the date of randomization to the date of PD, death (of any cause), or last tumor evaluation, whichever came first, assessed up to 3 years
Secondary	Progression-free Survival Rate at Six Months (PFS6)	The rate estimate of the percentage of patients who are alive and progression-free at 24 weeks (~6 months) after randomization. Progession disease was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. The appearance of one or more new lesions was also considered progression.	At month six after patient inclusion
Secondary	Overall Response Rate	Overall response rate (ORR) was defined as the percentage of patients with a response, either CR or PR, according to RECIST v.1.1.; Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to < 10 mm.; Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters.	Time from the date of randomization until 30±7 days after the last treatment infusion, assessed up to 3 years
Secondary	Objective Response Per RECIST v.1.1	RECIST, Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Complete Response (CR) Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes must have reduction in short axis to <10mm Partial Response (PR) At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum diameters Progressive Disease (PD) At least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions taking as reference the smallest sum on study. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5mm. Appearance of new lesions was considered PD Stable Disease (SD) Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD taking as reference the smallest sum diameters while on study Treatment failure (TF) Symptomatic deterioration/death due to progression or treatment discontinuation due to treatment-related toxicity occurred before any appropriate tumor assessments had been performed	Time from the date of randomization until 30±7 days after the last treatment infusion, assessed up to 3 years
Secondary	Duration of Response	Duration of response (DR) was defined as the time from the date when the response criteria (PR or CR, whichever was reached first) were fulfilled, to the first date when PD, recurrence or death was documented.; Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to < 10 mm.; Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters.	The time from the date when the response criteria (PR or CR, whichever was reached first) were fulfilled, to the first date when PD, recurrence or death was documented, up to 3 years
Secondary	Overall Survival (OS)	Overall survival (OS) will be defined as time from the date of first infusion to the date of death or last contact	From the date of first infusion to the date of death or last contact, up to 12 months after last patient inclusion
Secondary	Information on Quality of Life (QoL)	The mean QoL scores self-reported by patients using the Lung Cancer Symptom Scale (LCSS) at baseline and after the start of the therapy in visits 3 or 6 (+/- 1 visit) and visit 9 for those patients in maintenance therapy.; Higher LCSS scores indicate more severe problems and the scale range is (0-100) Total score was calculated as the mean of the total scores of all nine patient ítems (Appetite, Fatigue, Cough, Dyspnea, Hemoptysis, Pain, Lung cancer symptoms, Normal activities, Global QoL)	Baseline, Cycle 3 (~9 weeks), Cycle 6 (~18 weeks) and Cycle 9 (~27 weeks)
