Brief summary

The objective of the study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of ONO-4538 in subjects with stage IIIB/IV or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer unsuited to radical radiotherapy and resistant to a platinum-based chemotherapeutic regimen.

Outcome results

Primary

Response Rate (Centrally Assessed)

Response rate (%) = (Number of subjects whose confirmed best overall response was complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) / Total number of FAS)\*100. 95% Confidence interval (CI) was calculated by Wilson method.

Time frame: Screening phase: Up to 14 days before enrollment.Treatment phase: Day 43 of each cycle or end of treatment phase (up to approximately 10 months).Follow-up phase: 28 days after final dose or for discontinuation occurring 28 or fewer days after final dose.

Population: Full analysis set(FAS): This set was defined as a full group of subjects who were included in safety analysis set, which was defined as group of subjects who were enrolled and received at least one dose of the study drug. This set was used in the primary efficacy evaluation.

Duration of Response (Centrally Assessed)

Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.1) for target lesions assessed by CT or MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), \>=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR. Duration of response (days) = (the date of the first documented PD or death due to any cause after response was confirmed) - (the date of the first confirmed CR or PR) + 1. Median (95% CI) was calculated by Kaplan-Meier method.

Time frame: Screening phase: Up to 14 days before enrollment.Treatment phase: Day 43 of each cycle or end of treatment phase(up to approximately 10 months).Follow-up phase: Until beginning subsequent treatment for non-small cell lung cancer or PD or recurrence.
