About this study
Official title: A Phase 1/2, Open-label, Multicenter Study of the Combination of NKTR-214 and Nivolumab or the Combination of NKTR-214, Nivolumab, and Other Anti-Cancer Therapies in Patients With Select Locally Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumor Malignancies
In this four-part study, NKTR-214 was administered in combination with nivolumab and with/without other anticancer therapies. Part 1 considered escalating doublet (NKTR 214 + nivolumab) doses to determine the RP2D. Part 2 considered dose expansion cohorts for the doublet (NKTR 214 + nivolumab ± chemotherapy). Part 3 was schedule-finding for a triplet therapy (NKTR 214 + nivolumab + ipilimumab). Part 4 dose expansion for the triplet (NKTR 214 + nivolumab + ipilimumab) was planned to further assess the efficacy of the RP2D triplet combination at dosing schedules from Part 3.
Read the detailed description
Part 1 enrolled patients with advanced or metastatic melanoma, renal cell carcinoma (RCC), non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), urothelial carcinoma, or triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) or maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of NKTR 214 + nivolumab doublet therapy.
Part 2 enrolled patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumor malignancies (including 9 tumor types consisting of the same 5 tumor types as in Part 1, plus hormone receptor positive human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 [HER 2] negative breast cancer [HR+ HER2- BC], gastric cancer, colorectal carcinoma, and small cell lung cancer [SCLC]) to assess the efficacy of the RP2D.
Part 3 enrolled patients with advanced or metastatic melanoma, RCC, NSCLC, or urothelial carcinoma (UCC) in a first-line setting (1L) to assess the safety and tolerability of NKTR 214 + nivolumab + ipilimumab triplet therapy Three dosing schedules were evaluated to establish RP2D dosing schedules for Part 4 of the study.
Part 4 planned to enroll patients with advanced or metastatic melanoma, RCC, NSCLC, or UCC to further assess the efficacy of the RP2D triplet combination at the 3 dosing schedules from Part 3. Patients were enrolled simultaneously to each tumor cohort.
All patients enrolled in the study were closely monitored for safety, tolerability and response per RECIST criteria. The primary efficacy endpoint was objective response rate (ORR) using RECIST 1.1 at the RP2D doublet.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Part 1 Dose Escalation: Incidence of Dose-limiting Toxicity (DLT) During the DLT Evaluation Window
Part 1of the study was a dose-escalation phase that evaluated the safety and tolerability and defined the maximum tolerated dose or recommended Phase 2 dose of the NKTR-214/nivolumab doublet across 5 dosage/schedule levels. The results presented are for the DLT Population.
Measured: Includes DLTs that occurred within the DLT window of at least 21 days after the first dose of study treatment (28 days for every 2 weeks dosing; 21 days for every 3 weeks dosing). Patients were counted only once under each preferred term.
Part 3 Schedule Finding: Incidence of Dose-limiting Toxicity (DLT) During the DLT Evaluation Window
Part 3 of the study was a schedule finding phase to establish the recommended phase 2 dosing schedules for Part 4 and assess the safety and tolerability for the NKTR-214/nivolumab/ipilimumab triplet combination. The results presented are for the DLT Population.
Measured: Dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) were assessed during a 3-week (21-day) DLT evaluation period beginning with the first dose of ipilimumab.
Part 2 and Part 4: Objective Response Rate (ORR) Per RECIST 1.1 at Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D)
Objective Response Rate (ORR) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) at Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D).
ORR is defined as the percentage of enrolled participants who achieved a Best Overall Response (BOR) of Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR). CR is defined as disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) had to have reduction in short axis to <10 mm. PR is defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. ORR is calculated as the sum of CR and PR.
Measured: Tumor assessment at Screening then every 8 weeks (± 7 days) from Cycle 1 Day 1 and end of treatment (unless scan done within 4 weeks) up to approximately 27 months.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1/2 study testing Dose Escalation Doublet: Combination of NKTR-214 + nivolumab, Dose Expansion Doublet: Combination of NKTR-214 + nivolumab and Schedule Finding Triplet: Combination of NKTR-214+ nivolumab+ ipilimumab in people with Melanoma and Renal Cell Carcinoma, run by Nektar Therapeutics at 58 sites in 8 countries.
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 8 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 13 Mar 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 58 sites in United States, Spain, Italy, Poland, Belgium and 3 more countries. 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 combined 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.
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
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 13 Mar 2023). 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?
Part 1 Dose Escalation: Incidence of Dose-limiting Toxicity (DLT) During the DLT Evaluation Window (time frame: Includes DLTs that occurred within the DLT window of at least 21 days after the first dose of study treatment (28 days for every 2 weeks dosing; 21 days for every 3 weeks dosing). Patients were counted only once under each preferred term.). 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?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02983045, which also lists 4 linked publications.
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 13 Mar 2023.
