About this study

Official title: Sequential Envafolimab Immunotherapy After Patients With ctDNA EGFR Mutation Clearance by Treatment With Almonertinib in EGFR-Mutant, PD-LI Positive Non-small-cell Lung Cancer:Efficacy and Safety Clinical Trial

This is a prospective, single-arm, open-label, interventional clinical study, aimed at exploring the efficacy and safety of sequential Envafolimab immunotherapy after patients with ctDNA EGFR mutation clearance and achieved stable radiographically deep esponse after first line treatment with Almonertinib in EGFR-Mutant, PD-LI positive non-small-cell lung cancer.

Read the detailed description

The study includes a screening period (not more than 28 days after the subject signs informed consent to before the first medication), treatment period (including Almonertinib treatment in 6-8 weeks after enrollment\ctDNA testing and radiographically imaging assessment\ctDNA guiding sequential Envafolimab immunotherapy) and follow-up period (including survival and safety) .

Eligible subjects receive 110 mg of Almonertinib once a day for 6-8 consecutive weeks of treatment,and receive ctDNA testing and radiographically imaging assessment again. According to test results, there are two types:

  1. EGFR mutation is positive, subjects subsequent treament is up to the investigator (continue to receive 110 mg of Almonertinib once a day or combination therapy regimen), follow up every 6 weeks.
  2. EGFR mutation is negative and achieve stable radiographically deep response after 6-8 weeks treatment with Almonertinib, subjects will stop Almonertinib treatment,and receive sequential Envafolimab immunotherapy (ctDNA dynamic monitoring guided treatment,every 6 weeks test ctDNA once, if it is negative, subjects continue to receive Envafolimab immunotherapy until ctDNA EGFR turns positive; if ctDNA EGFR is positive, subjects stop Envafolimab immunotherapy and receive Almonertinib 110 mg once a day again until ctDNA EGFR turns negative).

The treatment will continue until disease progression assessed by the investigator according to RECIST 1.1 criteria, or withdrawal or termination criteria are reached.

What participants receive

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

  • Almonertinib EnvafolimabDrug

    Subjects will receive Almonertinib treatment for 6-8 weeks after enrollment, and receive ctDNA detection and radiography assessment again.

    If the EGFR mutation is positive, according to the patient's condition and clinical actual situation, subjects will receive combination therapy scheme, follow-up once every 6 weeks. The treatment will continue until the disease progress assessed by radiography.

    If the EGFR mutation turns negative and stable radiographically deep response, stop Almonertinib treatment and receive the relevant assessment before immunotherapy and receive Envafolimab treatment,and follow-up once every 6 weeks. The treatment of Envafolimab will continue until the EGFR mutation is positive again or disease progress assessed by radiography.

What is being measured

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

  1. PFS

    The progression-free survival is defined as the time from date of baseline until the the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first.

    Measured: 24 months.

  2. TRP

    Time to retest positive is defined as the time from date of sequential Envafolimab treatment until blood sample ctDNA detected for EGFR mutation recurrence or disease progression assessed by radiological imaging,assessed up to 24 months.

    Measured: 24 months.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. ORR

    ORR is defined as the percentage of patients who have at least 1 response of CR or PR prior to any evidence of progression, assessed up to 24 months.

    Measured: From baseline, then every 6 weeks, until disease progression or discontinuation from study. ORR is defined as the percentage of patients who have at least 1 response of CR or PR prior to any evidence of progression assessed up to 24 months.

  2. DCR

    The disease control rate is defined as the proportion of patients with a best overall response of CR, PR, or SD.

    Measured: 24 months.

  3. OS

    OS is defined as the time from the starting date of study drug to the date of death,due to any cause.

    Measured: 24 months after the last subject participating in.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Almonertinib Envafolimab in people with Non-small Cell Lung Cancer, run by The First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University.

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 13 inclusion and 37 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 14 Sep 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 Yongqian Shu, PhD (0086-025-68306428, shuyongqian@csco.org.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

PFS (time frame: 24 months.). 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 14 Sep 2022.
