Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: Determine the objective response rate (ORR) of ganetespib in subjects with advanced ALK-positive NSCLC; Secondary Objective: Determine the overall progression-free survival (PFS), 6-month PFS and 1-year PFS. • Determine duration of response. • Determine the overall survival (OS) and 1-year OS. • Determine the disease control rate (DCR) at weeks 6 and 12. • Determine the change in tumor size (CTS) at weeks 6 and 12. • Evaluate the qualitative and quantitative toxicities associated with ganetespib in subjects with ALK-positive NSCLC. • Evaluate symptom improvement using Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy – Lung (FACT-L) version 4. • Determine the relationship of clinical outcome with relevant biomarkers and genetic changes present in tumor tissues and serum samples. ;Primary end point(s): Objective Response Rate (ORR) (the proportion of subjects showing a complete or partial response).;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: The primary analysis of ORR will be conducted 3 months after the last subject is enrolled

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Progression Free Survival (PFS) Duration of Response (DOR) Overall Survival (OS) Disease Control Rate (DCR) Change in Tumor Size (CTS) Adverse Events Symptom improvement outcome Correlative Biomarker Analyses Laboratory Data Other Safety Parameters ; Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: The PFS rate at 6 months and 1 year The OS rate at 1 year DCR is measured at weeks 6 and 12 CTS is measured from baseline to at least 6 weeks (CTS-6) or 12 weeks (CTS-12)
