Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: ?Male or female aged greater than or equal to 18 years ?Patients must be diagnosed with ALK-positive advanced NSCLC. The tumor must be ALK-positive as determined by ALK rearrangement in greater than or equal to15% of cells (as measured by FISH using the Vysis break-apart ALK probe) or by using the Ventana ALK IHC test. The analysis may be performed locally. ?Eastern cooperative oncology group (ECOG) performance status ? 2. ?Measurable disease as per RECIST v1.1 ?Availability of tumor sample: oFor ALK inhibitor naïve patients: A representative tumor sample must be submitted. An archival tumor specimen is acceptable oFor patients after progression on an ALK inhibitor: A new tumor biopsy is required unless a biopsy performed after progression on the patient?s most recent ALK inhibitor is available for submission oFor all patients a newly obtained tumor specimen must be submitted if no appropriate archival sample is available. In the event that no sample is available and a new biopsy cannot be obtained, enrollment may be considered after discussion with the sponsor. Are the trial subjects under 18? no Number of subjects for this age range: F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range 136 F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) yes F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range 34

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: ?For dose escalation part: oPatients who have received prior treatment with ceritinib cannot be enrolled in the escalation part of the study until a combination drug dose with appropriate ceritinib exposure is determined. Prior therapy with other ALK inhibitors is allowed. ?For Phase II part: oGroup A: prior therapy with any ALK inhibitor is not permitted. oGroup B: progression following any ALK inhibitor(s) other than ceritinib is required and the last dose of the ALK inhibitor must be no more than 60 days prior to the first dose of study drug. Prior ceritinib is not permitted. oGroup C: progression following ceritinib is required and the last dose of ceritinib must be no more than 60 days prior to the first dose of study drug. Patients must have tolerated a dose of ceritinib of 600 mg QD, or greater. ?Patients with symptomatic central nervous system (CNS) metastases who are neurologically unstable or require increasing doses of steroids or local CNS-directed therapy (such as radiotherapy, surgery or intrathecal chemotherapy) to control their CNS disease ?Impaired cardiac function or any clinically significant cardiac disease, including any of the following: oClinically significant heart disease such as CHF requiring treatment (NYH grade greater than or equal to 2), unstable angina pectoris or myocardial infarction within the past 3 months, or left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) 450 ms screening ECG or congenital long QT syndrome or family history of unexpected sudden cardiac death. oAny other clinically significant heart disease such as unstable arrhythmia, resting bradycardia, left bundle branch block, bifascicular block, or any heart disease that requires the use of a cardiac pacemaker ? 3 months prior to starting study drug ?Patients with the following laboratory values during screening and on day 1 of pre-dose: oHematology -Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) 1.5 x ULN, except for patients with known Gilbert syndrome, who are excluded if total bilirubin is > 3.0 x ULN or direct bilirubin is > 1.5 x ULN -Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) > 3 x ULN, except for patients that have tumor involvement of the liver, who must have a value ? 5 x ULN -Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) > 3 x ULN, except for patients that have tumor involvement of the liver, who must have a value ? 5 x ULN -Potassium, magnesium or calcium abnormality > CTCAE grade 1 (despite oral supplementation) -Phosphate abnormality > CTCAE grade 2 (despite oral supplementation) ?Impairment of gastrointestinal (GI) function or GI disease that may significantly alter the absorption of ceritinib or LEE011 (e.g., ulcerative diseases, uncontrolled nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or malabsorption syndrome) ?Patients who are currently receiving treatment (that cannot be discontinued at least 1 week prior to the initiation of the study) with agents that are known to be any of the following: oStrong inducers or inhibitors of CYP3A4/5 oPrimarily metabolized by CYP3A4/5 or CYP2C9 oSubstrates of CYP3A4/5 or CYP2C9 with a narrow therapeutic index

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: ?Phase Ib: To estimate the MTD(s) and/or RP2D(s) of LEE011 in combination with ceritinib in ALK-positive NSCLC patients as measured by the incidence of DLTs in Cycle 1 and by exposure to LEE011 and ceritinib as measured by PK parameters ?Phase II: To assess preliminary anti-tumor activity of the LEE011 and ceritinib combination as measured by Overall Response Rate (ORR) as per RECIST v1.1;Secondary Objective: ?To characterize the safety and tolerability of the LEE011 and ceritinib combination as measured by the frequency and severity of adverse events and serious adverse events, changes in laboratory values, and electrocardiograms, and by the frequency of dose interruptions and dose reductions. ?To characterize the PK profile of LEE011 and ceritinib combination as measured by concentration-time profiles and derived PK parameters. ?To assess additional clinical activity of the LEE011 and ceritinib combination as measured by Progression free survival, duration of response, time to response, disease Control Rate, and overall survival.;Primary end point(s): Phase Ib: 1.Incidence rate of DLTs during the first cycle of treatment 2.Exposure to LEE011 and ceritinib as measured by PK parameters (AUC0-24h at C1D15) Phase II: 3.Overall Response Rate (ORR) as per RECIST v1.1;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1. 28 days 2.
