Study of efficacy and safety of canakinumab in combination with docetaxel in subjects with non-small cell lung cancers as a second or third line therapy.

A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase III study evaluating the efficacy and safety of canakinumab in combination with docetaxel versus placebo in combination with docetaxel in subjects with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) previously treated with PD-(L)1 inhibitors and platinum-based chemotherapy (CANOPY-2)

Exclusion criteria: The main exclusion criteria are listed below. Other exclusion criteria, defined in the protocol, may apply. • Subject who previously received docetaxel, canakinumab (or another IL-1ß inhibitor), or any systemic therapy for their locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC other than one platinum-based chemotherapy and one prior PD-(L)1 inhibitor. • Subject with EGFRor ALK positive tumor. . • History of severe hypersensitivity reaction to monoclonal antibodies, taxanes or excipients of docetaxel or canakinumab.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: • Safety run-in part: To confirm the Recommended Phase 3 Regimen (RP3R) of the combination of canakinumab and docetaxel • Randomized part: To compare the overall survival (OS) in the docetaxel plus canakinumab arm versus docetaxel plus placebo arm;Primary end point(s): Safety Run-in Part : • Incidence rate of dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) in the first 42 days associated with the administration of canakinumab in combination with docetaxel. Randomized Part : • OS;Secondary Objective: Safety run-in part: • To assess preliminary clinical anti-tumor activity of canakinumab and docetaxel combination • To characterize safety and tolerability of the combination of canakinumab and docetaxel • To characterize pharmacokinetics of canakinumab and docetaxel when given in combination Randomized part: • To evaluate 2 treatment arms with regards to progression-free survival, overall response rate, disease control rate, Time to response and duration of response • To characterize safety profile of the combination of docetaxel and canakinumab • To assess effect of docetaxel plus canakinumab vs docetaxel plus placebo arms on PROs including lung cancer symptoms, healthrelated quality of life and health status • To characterize pharmacokinetics of canakinumab when given in combination • To characterize immunogenicity of canakinumab • To assess the effect of docetaxel plus placebo vs docetaxel plus canakinumab arms on ECOG performance status.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Safety Run-in Part : No formal statistical evaluation timepoint. Randomized Part : The primary analysis will occur when approximately the required 137 targeted OS events is reached at the final analysis or earlier if the statistical significance is reached for OS at the time of interim analysis when approximately 96 OS events have been observed.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Safety Run-in Part : • Type, frequency and severity of adverse events, changes in laboratory values, vital signs, ECGs • ORR, DOR and DCR by investigator’s assessment according to RECIST 1.1 • Concentration of canakinumab/docetaxel and PK parameters Randomized Part : • PFS, ORR, DCR, TTR and DOR based on local investigator assessment per RECIST 1.1 • AEs (CTCAE v5.0), ECGs, vital signs and laboratory abnormalities • Time to definitive 10 point deterioration symptom scores of chest pain, cough and dyspnea per QLQLC13 questionnaire are primary PRO variables of interest. Time to definitive deterioration in global health status/QoL, shortness of breath and pain per QLQ-C30 are secondary PRO variables of interest. Change from baseline in EORTC-QLQ C30 and LC13, EQ-5D-5L • Concentration of canakinumab/docetaxel and PK parameters • Antidrug antibodies (ADA) prevalence at baseline and ADA incidence on-treatment • Time to definitive deterioration of the ECOG performance status of the score from baseline.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Safety Run-in Part : • The analysis of secondary endpoints after 2 treatment cycles Randomized Part : • The analysis of secondary endpoints will be performed with the primary OS analysis This primary analysis will occur when approximately the required 137 targeted OS events is reached at the final analysis or earlier if the statistical significance is reached for OS at the time of interim analysis when approximately 96 OS events have been observed.
