A Safety and Efficacy Study of INC280 Alone, and in Combination With Erlotinib, Compared to Chemotherapy, in Advanced/Metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Patients With EGFR Mutation and cMET Amplification

A Phase Ib/II, Open-label, Multicenter Trial With Oral cMET Inhibitor INC280 Alone and in Combination With Erlotinib Versus Platinum With Pemetrexed in Adult Patients With EGFR Mutated, cMET-amplified, Locally Advanced/Metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) With Acquired Resistance to Prior EGFR Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor (EGFR TKI)

Brief summary

The purpose of this study was to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of INC280 in combination with erlotinib in the Phase Ib of this study, and to assess the anti-tumor activity and safety of INC280 alone, and in combination with erlotinib, versus platinum with pemetrexed in the Phase II of this study, in adult patients with EGFR mutated, cMET amplified, advanced/metastatic non-small cell lung cancer with acquired resistance to prior EGFR TKI.

Detailed description

The decision was taken to halt study enrollment with Cohort #3 in Phase Ib. Therefore, activities for the planned Phase II were not initiated. This decision to stop further development of this combination was taken due to the challenge for enrollment in this very rare patient population along with the rapidly evolving disease landscape setting.

NONE

Masking description

The study started as a non-randomized study, and was to move into randomized part in phase II. However the study was stopped after cohort #3 in the phase I part and so never moved into phase II.

Intervention model description

The study started as a single assignment study which was to move to a parallel design (3 arms) but the study was stopped after cohort #3 in the phase I part and so never moved into phase 2.
