Brief summary

The aim of this study is to combine AZD1775 with standard front-line chemotherapy in subjects with advanced NSCLC.

Detailed description

This is a randomised, phase II trial comparing AZD1775 plus pemetrexed and carboplatin followed by maintenance AZD1775 and pemetrexed versus pemetrexed and carboplatin followed by maintenance pemetrexed in patients with previously untreated metastatic non-squamous NSCLC with TP53 mutations. The primary endpoint of the trial is assessment of progression-free survival (PFS).

Interventions

AZD1775 is a highly selective, adenosine-triphosphate (ATP) competitive, small molecule inhibitor of the WEE 1 kinase that sensitizes tumor cells to cytotoxic agents and is being developed for the treatment of advanced solid tumors and p53 pathway deficient malignancies

DRUGAZD1775 Matching Placebo

DRUGpemetrexed

This drug is a part of a general group of chemotherapy drugs called anti-metabolites. It prevents cells from using folate to make DNA and RNA. Because cancer cells need these substances to make new cells, this drug helps to stop the growth of cancer cells.

DRUGcarboplatin

This drug is a platinum chemotherapy drug that acts like an alkylating agent. It stops the growth of cancer cells, causing the cells to die.

Recruitment details

The study was conducted at 16 clinical sites in the United States. A total of 14 subjects were enrolled between March 19, 2014 and April 16, 2015.

Pre-assignment details

22 subjects were consented; 3 subjects failed screening. The study was terminated prior to the start of screening for 5 participants. 14 participants were treated with AZD1775. The study was terminated early by the sponsor. Part 2 was not done. The 14 participants were enrolled in 4 Cohorts, designated Cohorts 1, 2, 3, and A.
