Brief summary

A double-blind, placebo controlled, randomized, phase II study evaluating the efficacy and safety of capmatinib (INC280) and spartalizumab (PDR001) combination therapy versus capmatinib and placebo as first line treatment for locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with MET exon 14 skipping (METΔex14) mutations

Detailed description

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of capmatinib in combination with spartalizumab in treatment naive patients with EGFR wild-type, ALK rearrangement negative advanced NSCLC, harboring METΔex14 mutations. A run-in part (Part 1) was conducted to determine the anti-tumor activity and safety of capmatinib in combination with spartalizumab. Upon review of safety data and confirmation of anti-tumor activity in Part 1, the randomized part (Part 2) was planned to be initiated to compare the efficacy and safety of capmatinib plus spartalizumab to capmatinib plus placebo. Combined treatment of METΔex14 mutated NSCLC with capmatinib and spartalizumab was expected to result in improved efficacy compared to each single agent due to direct targeting of an oncogenic driver (MET) as well as more efficient stimulation of an anti-tumor immune response than with PD-1 blockade alone. The study enrollment was halted on 28-Jul-2021 per sponsor's decision. The enrollment halt decision was based on lack of tolerability observed in capmatinib and spartalizumab combination treatment in the run-in part (Part 1) of the trial. Following the study enrollment halt during Part 1 (Run in Part), Part 2 was not initiated. Immediately following the enrollment halt: * All ongoing subjects were discontinued from spartalizumab treatment and continue to receive single agent capmatinib * Enrolled subjects who had not started study treatment were to receive capmatinib single agent treatment from the start

ORR per RECIST v1.1 is defined as the percentage of participants with a best overall response of Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR). For RECIST v1.1, CR=Disappearance of all non-nodal target lesions. In addition, any pathological lymph nodes assigned as target lesions must have a reduction in short axis to \< 10 mm; PR= At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameter of all target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters.

Randomized Part: Change From Baseline in EORTC QLQ-C30Up to 6 yearsThe European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire (QLQ) contains 30 items and is composed of both multi-item scales and single-item measures. These include 5 functional scales (physical, role, emotional, cognitive, and social functioning), 3 symptom scales (fatigue, nausea/vomiting, and pain), 6 single items (dyspnea, insomnia, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhea, and financial impact) and a global health status/QoL scale. All scales and single-item measures range in score from 0 to 100. For the functional and the global QoL scales, a higher score indicates better health. For the symptom scales, a higher score indicates more symptom burden. The QLQ-C30 summary score (0-100) is calculated as the mean of 13 of the 15 QLQ-C30 scale and item scores (excluding global QoL and financial impact), with a higher score indicating a better health-related QoL.
Randomized Part: Change From Baseline in EORTC QLQ-LC13Up to 6 yearsEORTC QLQ-LC13 is used in conjunction with the EORTC QLQ-C30 and provides information on an additional 13 items specifically related to lung cancer. The five domains of the LC13 include pain, dyspnea, coughing and hemoptysis, and are based on their presence over the past week. All but the pain domain are scored on a 4 point Likert scale ranging from not at all to very much. Pain score is based on its presence, hence yes or no. Scores are averaged and transformed to 0 to 100. A higher score indicates a higher presence of symptoms.

Response options for each item vary from having no problems to extreme problems. Subject responses to the five dimensions of HRQOL reflect a specific health state that corresponds to a population preference weight for that state on a continuous scale of 0 (death) to 1 (perfect health). A visual analog scale (ranging from 0 to 100) is also included to capture subject's rating of their overall health status. Higher scores of the EQ-5D-5L represent better health states.

Randomized Part: Time to Definitive 10 Points Deterioration Symptom Scores for Pain in Chest, Coughing and Dyspnea Per QLQ-LC13 Questionnaire

EORTC QLQ-LC13 is used in conjunction with the EORTC QLQ-C30 and provides information on an additional 13 items specifically related to lung cancer. The five domains of the LC13 include pain in chest, dyspnea, coughing and hemoptysis, and are based on their presence over the past week. All but the pain domain are scored on a 4 point Likert scale ranging from not at all to very much. Pain score is based on its presence, hence yes or no. Scores are averaged and transformed to 0 to 100. A higher score indicates a higher presence of symptoms. The time to definitive 10 points deterioration is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of event, which is defined as at least 10 points relative to baseline worsening of the corresponding scale score or death due to any cause.

Randomized Part: Time to Definitive Deterioration in Global Health Status/QoL, Shortness of Breath and Pain Per EORTC QLQ-C30

The EORTC QLQ-C30 contains 30 items and is composed of both multi-item scales and single-item measures.

All scales and single-item measures range in score from 0 to 100. For the functional and the global QoL scales, a higher score indicates better health. For the symptom scales, a higher score indicates more symptom burden. The time to definitive 10 points deterioration is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of event, which is defined as at least 10 points relative to baseline worsening of the corresponding scale score or death due to any cause.
