Brief summary

This is an open-label, non-randomised, phase II, multi-centre clinical trial 26 patients will be enrolled in this trial to evaluate the major pathologic response in patients with neoadjuvant treatment with Carboplatin Pemetrexed Bevacizumab plus Atezolizumab in patients with non-small cell lung carcinoma locally advanced mutated in EGFR

Detailed description

This is an open-label, non-randomised, phase II, multi-centre clinical trial. Patients enrolled will receive Atezolizumab 1200mg + Bevacizumab 15mg/Kg + Carboplatin AUC6 + Pemetrexed 500mg/m2 for 3 cycles every 21 days (+/- 3 days) as neoadjuvant treatment followed by surgery and 6 months of adjuvant treatment with Atezolizumab 1200 mg Q4W (+/- 3 days). The primary objective is to evaluate the major pathologic response defined as 10 percent or fewer viable cancer cells detectable in the resected tumor and in lymph nodes in stage IIIA EGFR mutated patients treated in neoadjuvant setting with atezolizumab- bevacizumab- carboplatin and pemetrexed. Patient accrual is expected to be completed within 2 years excluding a run-in-period of 3-6 months. Treatment and follow-up are expected to extend the study duration to a total of 6 years. Patients will be followed 3 years after adjuvant treatment. The study will end once survival follow-up has concluded. This will be followed by a close out period of 4 months.

Interventions

DRUGAtezolizumab

Patients will receive 1200 mg of Atezolizumab every 21 days (QW3) (+/- 3 days) during neoadjuvant phase and every 28 days (QW4) (+/- 3 days) at adjuvant phase in a monitored setting where there is immediate access to trained personnel and adequate equipment/medicine to manage potentially serious reactions. First Infusion * No premedication administered for atezolizumab specifically is permitted * Infuse atezolizumab (1200 mg in a 250 mL 0.9% NaCl IV bag) over 60 (+/- 15) minutes. Subsequent Infusions: * If patient experienced infusion-related reaction during any previous infusion, premedication with antihistamines may be administered for Cycles \> 2 at the discretion of the treating physician. * If the patient tolerated the first infusion well without infusion-associated adverse events, the successive infusion may be delivered over 30 (+/- 10) minutes.

DRUGBevacizumab

Patients will receive 15mg/Kg of Avastin® (bevacizumab) administered by IV infusion every 21 days, for 3 cycles during neoadjuvant phase, in a monitored setting where there is immediate access to trained personnel and adequate equipment/medicine to manage potentially serious reactions.

DRUGCarboplatin

Structure: The cis-diamino (cyclobutan-1, 1 dicarboxilate) platin. Stability: 24 hours at ambient temperature in 5% glucose, glucosaline or physiologic saline. It is recommended not to dilute with chlorinated solutions since this could affect the carboplatin. Route of administration: Intravenous infusion Patients will receive Carboplatin AUC6 administered by IV infusion every 21 days, for 3 cycles during neoadjuvant phase. Guidelines of Carboplatin administration: According to the standard of each center

DRUGPemetrexed

Patients will receive Pemetrexed 500mg/m2 administered by IV infusion every 21 days, for 3 cycles during neoadjuvant phase. Pemetrexed disodium (ALIMTA®, pemetrexed) is a novel pyrrolo\[2,3 d\]pyrimidine-based folic acid analogue. Route of administration: Intravenous infusion. Guidelines of Pemetrexed administration: According to the standard of each center

Female CrCl = (140 - age in years) x weight in kg x 0.85/ 72 x serum creatinine in mg/dL b. Male CrCl = (140 - age in years) x weight in kg x 1.00/ 72 x serum creatinine in mg/dL v. AST/ALT ≤ 3 x ULN vi. Total Bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN (except subjects with Gilbert Syndrome, who can have total bilirubin \< 3.0 mg/dL) vii. PT/APTT/INR within normal limits * 6\. Measurable or evaluable disease according to RECIST v1.1. * 7\. The patients need to have a forced expiratory volume (FEV1)≥ 1.2 liters or \>40% p- predicted value. * 8\.

Patients aged \> 18 years. * 10\. Patient capable of proper therapeutic compliance and accessible for correct follow-up. * 11\. For female patients of childbearing potential, agreement (by patient and/or partner) to use a highly effective form(s) of contraception that results in a low failure rate (\< 1% per year) when used consistently and correctly, and to continue its use for 5 months after the last dose of Atezolizumab and/or 6 months after the last dose of Bevacizumab, whichever is later. Such methods include: combined (estrogen and progestogen containing) hormonal contraception, progestogen-only hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation together with another additional barrier method always containing a spermicide, intrauterine device (IUD): intrauterine hormone-releasing system (IUS), bilateral tubal occlusion, vasectomized partner (on the understanding that this is the only one partner during the whole study duration), and sexual abstinence. * 12\.

Male patients should not donate sperm during this study and for at least 6 months after the last dose of Bevacizumab. * 13\.
