Patients with confirmed or suspected diagnosis of diffuse interstitial lung disease (ILD) or pulmonary fibrosis, Patients with a second invasive malignancy treated with chemotherapy and/or RT. Patients with a previous malignancy that was completely resected with curative intention three or more years prior to randomization, and who has been continuously in remission since then will be permitted, Limitation of the patient’s ability to comply with the treatment or to follow the protocol, Documented or suspected invasive fungal infections requiring systemic treatment within 12 weeks of randomization; Pregnant or breast feeding women.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Measure the Progression-free survival (PFS) by an Independent Review Committee (IRC), based on the time from the date of randomization to the date of documented progression per RECIST v.1.1 or death (regardless of the cause of death). | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To analyze: Overall survival (OS); Mid- and long-term survival (OS at 12, 18 and 24 months, respectively); Efficacy and safety profiles in the subgroups of the PM01183/DOX arm vs. CAV or topotecan; PFS by Investigator’s Assessment (IA); Antitumor activity according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v.1.1; Safety profile; Patient-reported outcomes (PRO); Pharmacokinetics (PK) of the combination in patients treated in the experimental arm (PM01183/DOX); PK/pharmacodynamic (PDy) correlations in the experimental arm, if any; Pharmacogenetics of known polymorphisms in patients treated in the experimental arm. | — |
