Lung Cancer, Nonsmall Cell Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Randomised Open-label Phase III Trial of REduced Frequency Pembrolizumab immuNothErapy for First-line Treatment of Patients With Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) Utilising a Novel Multi-arm Frequency-response Optimisation Design
REFINE-lung will test whether reduced pembrolizumab dose frequency after 6 months of standard treatment is safe and effective. Patients treated with 1st line pembrolizumab who are progression free and otherwise planning to continue therapy at 6 months will be initially randomised to control 6 weekly versus interventional 12 weekly therapy. If an interim analysis shows that the 12 weekly treatment is no less effective, subsequent patients will also be randomised to 9, 15 and 18 weekly treatment frequency arms. Patients who progress on a reduced frequency arm will be offered re-escalation to standard 6 weekly therapy.
Immunotherapy with pembrolizumab targeting the T cell inhibitory PD-1 receptor has significantly improved outcomes in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Approximately 3600 new patients are treated in the 1st line setting per year in England alone and up to 25% remain on 6 weekly pembrolizumab for 2 years. However, pharmacological and clinical trial data suggest current frequent dosing for 2 years result in overtreatment. Indeed, pembrolizumab remains bound to its target receptor for up to 100 days following a single dose and studies in multiple tumour types have found no relationship between dose and patient outcome. Moreover, anti-PD1 treated patients who respond but discontinue therapy either as planned after 2 years, or earlier because of toxicity, can either remain in remission and/or be sensitive to re-challenge with pembrolizumab. REFINE-lung will test whether reduced pembrolizumab dose frequency (9, 12, 15, 18 weeks) after 6 months of standard treatment is safe and effective. This UK study represents a unique opportunity to determine whether pembrolizumab dose frequency can be safely reduced in NSCLC, resulting in significant cost benefits to the NHS and globally, in addition to enhanced patient QoL associated with fewer hospital attendances and reduced toxicity. ;
