About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Open Label, Dose Escalation Study of Immunoconjugate L-DOS47 in Combination With Pemetrexed/Carboplatin in Patients With Stage IV (TNM M1a and M1b) Recurrent or Metastatic NSCL Lung Cancer

The primary purpose of this research study is to evaluate how safe, how well tolerated and how effective a range of doses of L-DOS47 in combination with standard doublet therapy of pemetrexed/carboplatin in patients with Stage IV (TNM M1a and M1b) recurrent or metastatic non-squamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.

Read the detailed description

It is planned that patients will receive 4 cycles of combination treatment with L-DOS47 + pemetrexed/carboplatin. Patients who have not progressed following the 4 cycles of combination treatment and who have not experienced unacceptable toxicity will have the opportunity to continue to receive L-DOS47 treatment for as long as there is clinical benefit and it is well-tolerated, in the opinion of the Investigator, until disease progression. Patients who are unable to complete 4 cycles of L-DOS47 + pemetrexed/carboplatin combination treatment due to pemetrexed/carboplatin toxicity will have the opportunity to continue receiving L-DOS47 treatment following discontinuation of pemetrexed/carboplatin, for as long as there is clinical benefit and it is well-tolerated, in the opinion of the Investigator, until disease progression.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • L-DOS47Drug

    A treatment cycle will be 21 days, with patients receiving L-DOS47 on cycle Days 1, 8, and 15 and pemetrexed/carboplatin on Day 1 of each treatment cycle.

Study groups in NCT02309892
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Pemetrexed and Carboplatin plus L-DOS47ExperimentalPatients will be recruited into cohorts of L-DOS47 escalating doses, with a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 6 patients per cohort for the first and last two dosing cohorts, and a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 2 patients for the middle three dosing cohorts. The starting dose of L-DOS47 will be 0.59 µg/kg; further planned dose levels to be assessed are 0.78, 1.5, 3.0, 6.0, 9.0 and 12.0 µg/kg. The standard of care doses of pemetrexed [500 mg/m2] and carboplatin [AUC6], respectively, to be administered in combination with L-DOS47, will remain constant across cohorts.
Receives: Drug: L-DOS47

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Patients With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events as a Measure Safety and Tolerability of L-DOS47 in Combination Treatment With Pemetrexed/Carboplatin

    Beginning with the start of study treatment at Cycle 1 Day 1 up to the last study visit: An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant or clinical investigation participant, temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. An SAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose which results in death, is life-threatening, requires hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in disability/incapacity, or, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect. Beginning with the AE reporting period at the start of study treatment at Cycle 1 Day 1 up to the last study visit;

    Measured: Up to 12 weeks

  2. Number of Participants With Dose Limited Toxicities (DLTs) Related to L-DOS47 in Combination Treatment With Pemetrexed/Carboplatin.

    A DLT was defined as the occurrence of any of the following events (according to NCI CTCAE version 4.0) that are considered to be (possibly/probably/definitely) related to L-DOS47 and occurring within 21 days after commencing study treatment:

    • Haematological adverse events ≥ grade 4
    • Non-haematological adverse events ≥ grade 3
    • One instance each of any two unique grade 2 adverse events

    Measured: Up to 21 days

  3. Maximum Tolerated Dose of L-DOS47 in Combination With Pemetrexed/Carboplatin

    Defined as the highest dose level at which ≤ 1 of 6 patients experiences a dose limiting toxicity (DLT) as assessed during the first treatment cycle. If no DLT are reported, it is assumed that the maximum tolerated dose of L-DOS47 in combination with pemetrexed/carboplatin was not reached.

    Measured: 21 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Objective Response Rate of Patients Receiving the Combination Treatment According to RECIST 1.1

    Objective tumor response will be assessed according to RECIST version 1.1 in patients who have completed at least 2 cycles of study treatment and who have at least 1 post-treatment disease assessment; where complete response (CR) is the disappearance of all target lesions and partial response (PR) is at least a 30% reduction in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters.

    Measured: Up to 12 weeks

  2. Percentage of Patients Receiving a Sustained Clinical Benefit

    Defined as the percentage of patients who have achieved complete response, partial response, or stable disease following combination treatment with L-DOS47 + pemetrexed/carboplatin; where complete response (CR) is the disappearance of all target lesions, partial response (PR) is at least a 30% reduction in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters, and stable disease (SD) is where neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for progressive disease (PD, at least 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study).

    Measured: Up to 12 weeks

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

  1. First posted5 Dec 2014 (estimated)
  2. Study start20 Apr 2015
  3. Primary completion19 Aug 2019
  4. Study completion20 Sep 2019

Why it stopped: Slow enrolment - standard of care evolved over the duration of the study such that treatment regimen employed in the study was no longer current standard of care for first line resulting in recruitment challenges.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing L-DOS47 in people with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Helix BioPharma Corporation at 2 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Jun 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 3 Jun 2024). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Patients With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events as a Measure Safety and Tolerability of L-DOS47 in Combination Treatment With Pemetrexed/Carboplatin (time frame: Up to 12 weeks). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 Jun 2024.
