Eligibility |
Inclusion Criteria:
- Patients must have histologically or cytologically confirmed adenocarcinoma or large
cell carcinoma of the lung with confirmation by immunohistochemistry (histologic
tissue diagnosis is preferred, but cytology is acceptable).
- Patients must have stage IIIA, IIIB or IIIC disease according to the 8th tumor, node,
metastasis (TNM) staging classification and to be considered appropriate candidates
for aggressive chemoradiotherapy.
- Patients must have measurable disease, defined as at least one lesion that can be
accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest diameter to be recorded for
non-nodal lesions and short axis for nodal lesions) as >= 20 mm (>= 2 cm) by chest
x-ray or as >= 10 mm (>= 1 cm) with computed tomography (CT) scan, magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI), or calipers by clinical exam.
- Patients must have newly diagnosed non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), with no prior
overlapping radiation therapy delivered for locally advanced NSCLC. Prior stereotactic
radiation therapy for stage I lung cancer without overlapping is allowed. Prior
systemic antineoplastic therapy is allowed, as deemed appropriate by the treating
physician. Prior surgery is allowed.
- Age >= 18 years. Because no dosing or adverse event data are currently available on
the use of TRC102 in combination with pemetrexed, cisplatin, and durvalumab in
patients < 18 years of age, children are excluded from this study.
- Body weight > 30 kg with acceptable nutritional status based on evaluation by treating
physician.
- Eastern cooperative oncology group (ECOG) performance status =< 1 (Karnofsky >= 70%).
- Leukocytes >= 3,000/mcL.

- Absolute neutrophil count >= 1,500/mcL.
- Platelets >= 150,000/mcL.
- Serum bilirubin within normal institutional limits (0 - 1.2 mg/ dl). (This will not
apply to patients with confirmed Gilbert's syndrome [persistent or recurrent
hyperbilirubinemia that is predominantly unconjugated in the absence of hemolysis or
hepatic pathology], who will be allowed only in consultation with their physician.).
- Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase [SGOT]) = <
2.5 x institutional upper limit of normal (=< 39 U/L).
- Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase [SGPT]) =< 2.5 x
institutional upper limit of normal (=< 52 U/L).

mL/min/1.73 m^2.
- Acceptable pulmonary function as assessed by treating physician.
- Evidence of post-menopausal status or negative urinary or serum pregnancy test for
female pre-menopausal patients. Women will be considered post-menopausal if they have
been amenorrheic for 12 months without an alternative medical cause. The following
age-specific requirements apply:
- Women < 60 years of age would be considered post-menopausal if they have been
amenorrheic for 12 months or more following cessation of exogenous hormonal
treatments and if they have luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone
levels in the post-menopausal range for the institution or underwent surgical
sterilization (bilateral oophorectomy or hysterectomy).
- Women >= 60 years of age will be considered post-menopausal.
- Life expectancy >= 12 months.
- Patients who are human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive may participate IF they
meet the following eligibility requirements:
- They must be stable on their anti-retroviral regimen with evidence of at least
two undetectable viral loads within the past 6 months on the same regimen; the
most recent undetectable viral load must be within the past 12 weeks.
- They must have a CD4 count of greater than 250 cells/mcL over the past 6 months
on this same anti-retroviral regimen and must not have had a CD4 count < 200
cells/mcL over the past 2 years, unless it was deemed related to the cancer
and/or chemotherapy induced bone marrow suppression.
- For patients who have received chemotherapy in the past 6 months, a CD4
count < 250 cells/mcL during chemotherapy is permitted as long as viral
loads were undetectable during this same chemotherapy.
- They must have an undetectable viral load and a CD4 count >= 250 cells/mcL within
7 days of enrollment.
- They must not be currently receiving prophylactic therapy for an opportunistic
infection and must not have had an opportunistic infection within the past 6
months.
- HIV-infected patients should be monitored every 12 weeks for viral load and CD4
counts.
- For patients with evidence of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, the HBV viral
load must be undetectable on suppressive therapy, if indicated.
- Patients with a history of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection must have been treated
and cured. For patients with HCV infection who are currently on treatment, they are
eligible if they have an undetectable HCV viral load.
- Patients with known history or current symptoms of cardiac disease, or history of
treatment with cardio toxic agents, should have a clinical risk assessment of cardiac
function using the New York Heart Association functional classification. To be
eligible for this trial, patients should be class 2B or better.
- The effects of TRC102 on the developing human fetus are unknown. For this reason and
because biochemical inhibitors of the BER pathway agents as well as other therapeutic
agents used in this trial are known to be teratogenic, women of child-bearing
potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method
of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry, for the duration of study
participation, and for 6 months after completion of durvalumab monotherapy. Should a
woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while she or her partner is
participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately. Men
treated or enrolled on this protocol must also agree to use adequate contraception
prior to the study, for the duration of study participation, and 6 months after
completion of durvalumab administration, if having sex with women of childbearing
potential.
- Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document.
Participants with impaired decision-making capacity who have a legally-authorized
representative (LAR) and/or family member available will also be eligible.
- Patients with actionable mutations are eligible. Treatment with durvalumab during
consolidative phase will be at physician discretion.
- Patients with prior stage I/II non-small cell lung cancer treated with surgery are
eligible. Patients with prior stage I NSCLC treated with stereotactic body
radiotherapy (SBRT) without overlapping radiation fields would also be eligible.
Patients with prior chemotherapy are eligible, at physician's discretion.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Patients who have not recovered from adverse events due to prior anti-cancer therapy
(i.e., have residual toxicities > grade 1) with the exception of alopecia.
- Patients who are receiving any other investigational agents.
- Patients with treated brain metastases are not eligible as the study is for stage III
disease only.
- Patients with new or progressive brain metastases (active brain metastases) or
leptomeningeal disease are not eligible as the study includes only stage III disease.
- History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic
composition to TRC102 or other agents used in study.
- Patients with uncontrolled intercurrent illness, including but not limited to, ongoing
or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, uncontrolled hypertension,
unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, interstitial lung disease, serious
chronic gastrointestinal conditions associated with diarrhea, or psychiatric
illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirement,
substantially increase risk of incurring AEs or compromise the ability of the patient
to give written informed consent.
- Patients with psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with
study requirements.
- Pregnant women are excluded from this study because TRC102 is a biochemical inhibitor
of the BER pathway and durvalumab is an anti-PDL1 antibody, agents with the potential
for teratogenic or abortifacient effects. Because there is an unknown but potential
risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with
TRC102 or durvalumab, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated
with TRC102 or durvalumab. These potential risks may also apply to other agents used
in this study.
- Women of child-bearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception
(hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry,
for the duration of study participation, and for 6 months after durvalumab
monotherapy. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while she
or her partner is participating in this study, she should inform her treating
physician immediately. Men treated or enrolled on this protocol must also agree
to use adequate contraception prior to the study, for the duration of study
participation, and 6 months after completion of durvalumab.
- Patients with active or prior documented autoimmune or inflammatory disorders
(including inflammatory bowel disease [e.g., colitis or Crohn's disease],
diverticulitis [with the exception of diverticulosis], systemic lupus erythematosus,
Sarcoidosis syndrome, or Wegener syndrome [granulomatosis with polyangiitis, Graves'
disease, rheumatoid arthritis, hypophysitis, uveitis, etc.]). The following are
exceptions to this criterion:
- Patients with vitiligo or alopecia.
- Patients with hypothyroidism (e.g. following Hashimoto thyroiditis) stable on
hormone replacement.
- Any chronic skin condition that does not require systemic therapy.
- Patients without active disease in the last 5 years may be included but only
after consultation with the study physician.
- Patients with celiac disease controlled by diet alone.
- Active infection including tuberculosis (clinical evaluation that includes clinical
history, physical examination and radiographic findings, and tuberculosis [TB] testing
in line with local practice), hepatitis B (known positive HBV surface antigen [HBsAg]
result), or hepatitis C. Patients with a past or resolved HBV infection (defined as
the presence of hepatitis B core antibody [anti-HBc] and absence of HBsAg) are
eligible. Patients positive for hepatitis C (HCV) antibody are eligible only if
polymerase chain reaction is negative for HCV ribonucleic acid (RNA).
- History of allogenic organ transplantation.
- History of another primary malignancy except for:
- Malignancy treated with curative intent and with no active disease before the
first dose of IP and of low potential risk for recurrence.
- Adequately treated non-melanoma skin cancer or lentigo maligna without evidence
of disease.
- Adequately treated any carcinoma in situ without evidence of disease.
- Prostate cancer with stable disease with active or prior treatment that will not
interfere with current lung cancer treatment will be eligible.
