Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of selumetinib in combination with docetaxel (75mg/m2) vs placebo in combination with docetaxel (75mg/m2) in patients with locally advance or metastatic NSCLCs that harbor mutations of KRAS. This study will also assess the PK, safety, patient reported outcomes (PRO) and tolerability profile of the selumetinib/docetaxel combination, compared to placebo in combination with docetaxel

Detailed description

A Phase III, Double-Blind, Randomised, Placebo-Controlled Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Selumetinib (AZD6244; ARRY-142886) (Hyd-Sulfate) in Combination with Docetaxel, in Patients receiving second line treatment for KRAS Mutation-Positive Locally Advanced or Metastatic Non Small Cell Lung Cancer (Stage IIIB - IV) (SELECT-1)

Interventions

DRUGSelumetinib

Three 25 mg selumetinib capsules (Hyd-Sulfate) be administered orally, twice daily, (total dose 75 mg dose bd) on an uninterrupted schedule.

DRUGDocetaxel

Docetaxel 75 mg/m2 will be administered intravenously on day 1 of each 21 day cycle.

DRUGPlacebo

Three placebo capsules will be administered orally uninterrupted twice daily in combination with docetaxel 75 mg/m2 intravenously administered on day 1 of each 21 day cycle.

All patients will receive pegylated Granulocyte Colony Stimulating Factor (G-CSF) at least 24 hours after administration of every docetaxel dose and not within 14 days prior to the next docetaxel administration.

Recruitment details

This study started with an assessment visit where a tumour KRAS mutation assessment was performed, eligibility assessments were performed and informed consent obtained. Eligible patients were randomised at the next visit. Patients then received double-blinded study treatment, were seen and assessments performed until objective disease progression.

Pre-assignment details

Eligible patients randomised in a ratio of 1:1 to receive selumetinib (AZD6244; ARRY-142886) 75 mg bd in combination with docetaxel 75 mg/m2 or placebo in combination with docetaxel 75 mg/m2. They were stratified based on their WHO performance status and tumour histology. 510 patients enrolled and 510 randomised.
