A clinical trial to study the safety and efficacy of ALD518 in patients with non-small cell lung cancer-related fatigue and cachexia.

A phase II study to determine the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of multiple intravenous doses of ald518 80 mg, 160 mg, and 320 mg versus placebo administered to patients with non-small cell lung cancer-related fatigue and cachexia.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Exclusion Criteria: 1.

Have planned chemotherapy, large field radiotherapy, or surgery for the treatment of their cancer during the study 8. Diagnosed with any unstable, uncontrolled brain metastases 9. Have a previous history of tuberculosis 10. Have active tuberculosis infection 11. Have a current serious infection (requiring treatment with parenteral antibiotics) 12. Have a history of hypersensitivity to monoclonal antibodies 13. Have current habitual drug abuse including alcohol 14. Have received any experimental, unregistered therapy (within or outside a clinical study) within 30 days or five plasma half-lives (which ever is shorter) before dosing 15. Have received monoclonal antibody treatment within 6 months of Screening (within or outside a clinical study) 16. Regularly take high dose corticosteroids or progestogens for purposes other than hormone replacement therapy) (>7.5 mg prednisolone or equivalent) per day 17. Are likely to require treatment during the study with drugs not permitted by the study protocol 18. Are participating in (or planning to participate in) any other clinical study during the study (Patient may be followed for survival if they have completed or withdrawn from a previous study) 19. Have any physical disability (e.g., amputation of a limb) which would interfere with completion of the hand grip strength measurement or any other protocol-related procedure. 20. Are pregnant or a nursing mother.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Primary endpoint is change in safety as follows: 1. Incidence and severity of AEs and SAEs during the study 2. Changes in vital signs and 12-lead ECG during the study 3. Changes in physical examination during the study 4. Changes in laboratory assessments (serum chemistry, hematology, and urinalysis) during the study. Timepoint: Day-1, week-2, week-4, week-8, week-16, week-20, week-24

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. Time to symptomatic progression (Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue; FACIT-F), at Weeks 12 and 24 Secondary efficacy endpoints are: 2. Changes from baseline in FACIT-F, at each visit 3. Changes from baseline in Functional Assessment of Anorexia/Cachexia Therapy (FAACT), at each visit 4. Changes from baseline in Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Lung (FACT-L), at each visit 5. Changes from baseline in Short Form-36 (SF-36), at each visit 6. Changes from baseline in hand grip strength, at each visit 7. Changes from baseline in weight and lean body mass, at each visit. 8. Time to death (survival) will be evaluated during the study. 9. The evaluation of PK over time: peak plasma concentration (Cmax), time to peak concentration (Tmax), area under the concentration-time curve extrapolated to infinity (AUC∞), and elimination half life (t½) 10. The evaluation of pharmacodynamic parameters over time: concentrations of CRP and D-dimer. 11. Evaluation of immunogenicity anti-ALD518. Timepoint: day-1, week-2, week-4, week-8, week-12, week-16, week-20, week-24
