About this study

Official title: A Phase II, Open-Label, Single Arm, Prospective, Multicenter Study of Niraparib Plus Dostarlimab in Patients With Advanced NSCLC and/or MPM, and Positive for PD-L1 Expression and Germline or Somatic Mutations in the HRR Genes

This is a single arm, prospective, interventional, multicenter phase 2 study of the combination of niraparib and dostarlimab in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and/or malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM), and positive for PD-L1 expression (TPS ≥ 1%) and germline or somatic mutations in the DNA homologous recombination repair (HRR) genes.

Read the detailed description

This is a single arm, prospective, interventional, multicenter phase 2 study of the combination of niraparib and dostarlimab in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and/or malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM), and positive for PD-L1 expression (TPS ≥ 1%) and germline or somatic mutations in the DNA homologous recombination repair (HRR) genes.

Approximately 70 eligible patients with previously treated advanced disease, not amenable for curative treatment will be included in this study and will be grouped as follows:

  • Homologous recombination deficiency (HRd)-positive and PD-L1-positive advanced NSCLC referred to as Cohort A (n= 35)
  • HRd-positive and PD-L1-positive advanced MPM referred to as Cohort B (n= 35)

HRd-positive and PD-L1-positive are defined as follows:

  • HRd-positive: Tumors that harbor known or suspected deleterious germline or somatic mutations in the HRR genes, based on the HRd Assay.
  • PD-L1-positive: Tumors with PD-L1 expression on at least 1% of tumor cells based on immunohistochemistry (IHC) analysis.

What is being measured

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

  1. PFS

    the time from the date of the first treatment dose until either disease progression, as assessed by investigator's review according to RECIST v1.1criteria, or modified RECIST for assessment of response in malignant pleural mesothelioma version 1.1 (mRECIST v1.1), or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.

    Measured: From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 36 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Objective response rate

    the proportion of participants who have a best overall response of either complete response (CR) or partial responses (PR) as assessed by investigator's review according to RECIST v1.1, or modified RECIST for assessment of response in malignant pleural mesothelioma version 1.1 (mRECIST

    Measured: up to 36 months

  2. Disease control rate

    the proportion of participants who have complete response (CR), partial responses (PR), or stable disease (SD) as assessed by investigator's review according to RECIST v1.1 or mRECIST v1.1

    Measured: up to 36 months

  3. Duration of response

    the time from the date a response was first documented until either disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.

    Measured: up to 36 months

  4. Overall survival

    the time from the date of the first dose to death due to any cause

    Measured: up to 36 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing niraparib and dostarlimab in people with Lung Cancer and Mesothelioma, run by University of Turin, Italy at 1 site in Italy.

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 14 inclusion and 22 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 May 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Italy. 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact giorgio v scagliotti, medicine (+390119026978, giorgio.scagliotti@unito.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

PFS (time frame: From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 36 months). 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 12 May 2023.
