About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Dose-Escalation and Phase 2 Randomized, Open-Label Study of Nivolumab and Veliparib in Combination With Platinum Doublet Chemotherapy in Subjects With Metastatic or Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)

This study seeks to establish the recommended Phase 2 dose (RPTD) of veliparib in combination with nivolumab and platinum doublet chemotherapy (carboplatin/paclitaxel or carboplatin/pemetrexed) (Phase 1 portion) and to assess whether the addition of nivolumab to veliparib in combination with platinum doublet chemotherapy results will improve progression free survival (PFS) compared to veliparib with platinum doublet chemotherapy alone in participants with metastatic or advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) (Phase 2 portion).

A strategy decision was made not to proceed to Phase 2 portion of this study due to change in standard of care.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    PFS is defined as the number of days from the date of randomization to the date of earliest disease progression (radiographic progression per RECIST version 1.1 or clinical disease progression) or death. If the participant does not experience disease progression or death, then the data will be censored at the date of the last disease assessment.

    Measured: Up to approximately 3.5 years

  2. Recommended Phase 2 dose (RPTD) of veliparib (ABT-888) in combination with nivolumab and platinum doublet chemotherapy in participants with metastatic or advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).

    Measured: Up to 6 weeks

Secondary outcomes (12)
  1. Tmax for pemetrexed

    Measured: Up to approximately 3 weeks

  2. AUC for nivolumab

    Measured: Up to approximately 3.5 years

  3. Overall Survival (OS)

    OS is defined as the number of days from the date of randomization to the date of death. For subjects who did not die, their data will be censored at the date of last study visit or the last known date to be alive, whichever is later.

    Measured: Up to approximately 3.5 years

  4. Tmax for nivolumab

    Measured: Up to approximately 3.5 years

  5. AUC for pemetrexed

    Measured: Up to approximately 3 weeks

  6. Time to Cmax (peak time, Tmax) for veliparib

    Measured: Up to approximately 9 weeks

  7. Area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) for veliparib

    Measured: Up to approximately 9 weeks

  8. Maximum observed serum concentration (Cmax) of nivolumab anti-drug antibody (ADA)

    Measured: Up to approximately 3.5 years

  9. Duration of Overall Response (DOR)

    DOR is defined as the number of days from the date of first response (CR or PR) to the earliest documentation of progressive disease or death due to disease progression.

    Measured: Up to approximately 3.5 years

  10. Maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax) for pemetrexed

    Measured: Up to approximately 3 weeks

  11. Maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax) for veliparib

    Measured: Up to approximately 9 weeks

  12. Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    ORR is defined as the proportion of the participants who have a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR).

    Measured: Up to approximately 3.5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing pemetrexed, nivolumab and paclitaxel in people with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by AbbVie at 6 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?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Oct 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Progression-free survival (PFS) (time frame: Up to approximately 3.5 years). The study lists 2 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 23 Oct 2019.
