Design outcomes

| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: The study is divided into 2 parts. Part A is the Phase 1b portion of the trial and Part B is the Phase 3 portion of the trial. Once the Assessment Committee (AC) has completed the DLT assessment for Part A, the outcome of those results will confirm the Part B dose and Part B enrollment will proceed. The objective(s) for each part are as follows: Part A: The objective of Part A is to assess the safety and tolerability of ramucirumab when administered in combination with erlotinib as therapy in previously untreated patients with EGFR mutation-positive metastatic NSCLC. Part B: The primary objective of Part B is to compare the PFS of ramucirumab administered in combination with erlotinib versus placebo in combination with erlotinib in previously untreated patients with EGFR mutation-positive metastatic NSCLC.;Secondary Objective: Secondary objectives of Part B are to compare ramucirumab administered in combination with erlotinib versus placebo administered in combination with erlotinib for: ? safety and toxicity profile ? overall survival (OS) ? objective response rate (ORR) (complete response [CR] + partial response [PR]) ? disease control rate (DCR) (CR + PR + stable disease [SD]) ? duration of response (DOR) ? pharmacokinetics (PK) and immunogenicity of ramucirumab ? patient-reported outcomes (using Lung Cancer Symptom Scale [LCSS] and EuroQol 5 dimension, 5-level questionnaire [EQ 5D-5L]) There are no secondary objectives planned for Part A in this study.;Primary end point(s): Part A: single arm to determine the recommended dose for Phase 3 part. Two cohorts of patients will be enrolled to assess the safety and tolerability of ?ramucirumab 10 mg/kg q2w + erlotinib 150 mg daily?. Part B: Progression Free Survival (PFS);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Part A completion is considered when the DLT assessment has been completed. Part B: After 320 PFS events for approximately 450 patients have been reported. PFS is measured from | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): ? overall survival (OS) defined as the time from the date of randomization until the date of death from any cause ? objective response rate (ORR) (complete response [CR] + partial response [PR]) defined as the proportion of randomized patients achieving a best overall response of PR or CR, from randomization to disease progression. ? disease control rate (DCR) (CR + PR + stable disease [SD]) defined as the proportion of randomized patients achieving a best overall response of PR or CR or SD, from randomization to disease progression. ? duration of response (DOR) defined from the date of first documented CR or PR (responder) to the date of objective progression or the date of death due to any cause, whichever is earlier. ? pharmacokinetics (PK) of ramucirumab: Cmin and concentrations at 1 hour post end of infusion (approximately maximum concentration [Cmax]) ? Number of patients with Anti-Ramucirumab antibodies - Correlation to ramucirumab drug level, activity, and safety ? Change from baseline on the Lung Cancer Symptom Scale [LCSS] - time to deterioration (TtD) for each of the 9 items ? Change from baseline on the EuroQoL 5-dimension, 5-Level Questionnaire (EQ-5D-5L): -Descriptive statistics for the 5 dimensions, index, and VAS calculated for each assessment period ? Resource Utilization - Hospitalizations, transfusions, and concomitant medications during the study treatment period or during the 30-day short-term follow-up period;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: After at least 300 OS events have been reported | — |
