E.1 Medical condition or disease under investigation |
E.1.1 | Medical condition(s) being investigated |
To investigate whether R1507 can induce responses in patients with advanced NSCLC who have developed resistance to to erlotinib therapy and determine if clinical benefit can be obtained by adding R1507 to erlotinib (EGFR TK inhibitor) in this setting. Additionally, the Study will evaluate potential biomarkers that may be predictive of clinical benefit from IGF-1R inhibitor therapy, and explore mechanisms of erlotinib resistance in NSCLC. |

To define PFS rate at 12 weeks in patients with advanced stage IIIB/IV Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) who have progressive disease after clinical benefit, defined as response or stable disease at 12 weeks from start of second or third line erlotinib monotherapy, treated with combination erlotinib and R1507. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
- Define the effect of adding R1507 to erlotinib on progression-free survival, overall survival, objective response rate, time to response, time to progressive disease and duration of response. - Define the PET response rate at 4 weeks. - Define population PK of R1507 in combination with erlotinib. - Evaluate the safety profile of the combination of R1507 and erlotinib. - Explore the changes in pharmacodynamic markers in responders and non-responders. - Explore candidate biomarkers related to drug mechanism of action. |

E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
1. Patients must have a head CT/MRI to evaluate for CNS metastasis within 28 days prior to enrollment. Patients with active CNS lesions are excluded. Patients with radiographically stable, asymptomatic previously irradiated lesions are eligible provided patients is ≥ 4 weeks beyond completing cranial irradiation and ≥ 3 weeks off corticosteroid therapy 2. Prior treatment with an investigational or commercial agent that acts via IGF-1R inhibition 3. Prior treatment with an agent that acts via EGFR targeting, other than current course of erlotinib 4. Prior irradiation: 1) Radiotherapy given within the last 4 weeks prior to first dose of study treatment. 2) Palliative radiotherapy for bone lesions outside the thoracic region within 2 weeks prior to the first dose of study treatment 5. Prior Surgery: Surgery (including open biopsy) or significant traumatic injury within the last 2 weeks prior to first dose of study treatment or anticipation of the need for major surgery during study treatment. 6. Administration of any anti-cancer therapies other than those administered in this study 7. Administration of high doses of systemic corticosteroids. High dose is considered as > 20 mg of dexamethasone a day (or equivalent) for > 7 consecutive days. Dexamethasone may induce CYP3A4 activity. CYP3A4 inhibitors and inducers may influence the plasma level of erlotinib 8. Lactating women 9. Fertile men or women of childbearing potential not using effective methods to prevent pregnancy. 10. Other active cancer requiring treatment. 11. Known hypersensitivity to any of the study drugs or their excipients 12.

History of allogeneic bone marrow transplantation or organ transplantation. 14. Any known significant ophthalmologic abnormalities of the surface of the eye (the use of contact lenses is not recommended) 15. No dysphagia or active gastrointestinal disease or disorder that alters gastrointestinal motility or absorption; no lack of integrity of the gastrointestinal tract (e.g. as significant surgical resection of the stomach or small bowel).
