E.1.1 | Medical condition(s) being investigated |
Non small cell lung cancer |
|
E.1.1.1 | Medical condition in easily understood language |
NSCLC is the most common form of lung cancer, accounting for 85 to 90% of all lung cancer cases. It tends to grow and spread more slowly than small cell. |

E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The main objective of this trial is to establish whether treatment with Olaparib in NSCLC patients who have already responded to induction chemotherapy delays disease progression compared to placebo.
|
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
The secondary objectives of this trial are to determine if Olaparib is a safe, feasible and tolerable maintenance therapy in NSCLC patients following induction chemotherapy. Other anti-tumour activities as measured by response, tumour volume reduction and overall survival will be also be determined. Finally, the study will also be used to collect blood and tissue samples from this population to facilitate future translational research. |
|
E.2.3 | Trial contains a sub-study | Yes |
E.2.3.1 | Full title, date and version of each sub-study and their related objectives |
The translational sub-study is part of the main PIN protocol. Objectives: Blood will be collected from all registered participants before induction chemotherapy starts. Follow-up bloods will then be collected upon disease progression (if progressing after the initial induction chemotherapy stage), at randomisation, and upon disease progression for those patients who are randomised. The formalin fixed NSCLC tissue that was taken at diagnosis (standard care) will also be collected on all patients registered to the study at time of induction chemotherapy. The tissues will be used to assess biomarkers associated with synthetic lethality. It is hypothesised that the loss of BRCA1 expression will be enriched in NSCLCs that have responded to induction chemotherapy. Patients who have gone through to the randomisation stage will also have the option to have a second biopsy upon disease progression.

E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
At registration: 1)Histological diagnosis of NSCLC. Histology can be either squamous or non-squamous. The same block or 10 unstained slides must be available for translational research. 2)Stage IIIB or stage IV lung cancer, that is not amenable to curative therapy 3)ECOG performance status 0-1 4)Have had no prior systemic treatment for lung cancer including previous adjuvant and neoadjuvant therapy. Patients who have already started their induction chemotherapy are not eligible. 5)Eligible to receive standard platinum doublet- based chemotherapy 6)Men or women, aged 18 or over and capable of giving informed consent 7)Willing to consent to provide tissue and blood for translational research 8)Informed consent prior to any study procedures.
At randomisation: 1)Partial or complete response to platinum containing doublet chemotherapy after a minimum of 3 cycles, as assessed by the local radiologist. 2)Adequate organ function, including the following: a. Adequate bone marrow reserve: absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.5 x 10^9/L, platelets ≥ 100 x 10^9/L , Haemoglobin of ≥ 10g/dL. b. Hepatic: total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 times the upper limit of normal (x ULN); alkaline phosphatase (ALP), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 2.5 x ULN. ALP, AST, and ALT ≤ 5 x times ULN is acceptable if the liver has tumour involvement c. Renal: calculated creatinine clearance (CrCl) ≥ 50mL/min based on the original weight based Crockcroft and Gault formula, Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 x institutional upper limit of normal (ULN) d. If blood count suggestive of MDS/AML, no features suggestive of MDS/AML on peripheral blood smear 3)Patients with reproductive potential must be prepared to use adequate contraception throughout the study and for three months after the last dose of Olaparib. 4)Informed consent prior to any study specific procedures. |
|
E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
At registration: 1)Evidence of small cell, large cell neuroendocrine or carcinoid histology 2)Have a serious or uncontrolled medical condition that in the opinion of the investigator would compromise the patients ability to adhere to the protocol 3)Have a secondary malignancy (except adequately treated non-melanomatous skin cancer, or other cancer that is considered cured by surgical resection or radiation). Patients who had another malignancy in the past but have been disease free for more than 5 years, are eligible. 4)Have had a blood transfusion within 4 weeks prior to entry and have a WBC >3 x 10^9/L. 5)Have central nervous system (CNS) metastases (unless the patient has completed successful local therapy for CNS metastases eg. Involving complete surgical removal or radical radiotherapy to a solitary CNS metastasis ). 6)Are receiving concurrent administration of any other systemic antitumour therapy 7)Have received a recent (within 30 days of enrolment) or are receiving a concurrent yellow fever vaccination. 8)Previous treatment with PARP inhibitors 9)Difficulty swallowing 10)Uncontrolled GI disorders such as active diverticulitis or colitis, or any major GI resection which could have an impact on patients' ability to absorb Olaparib. 11)Patients with myelodysplastic syndrome/Acute myeloid leukaemia 12)Congenital long QT syndrome
At randomisation: 1)Patients with radiological disease progression or stable disease 2)Have received treatment with an agent that has not received regulatory approval, within 30 days of study entry 3)Have had a blood transfusion within 4 weeks prior to entry and have a WBC >3 x 10^9/L. 4)Resting ECG with QTc>/-480 msec. 5)Are pregnant or breastfeeding. |

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
Progression free survival (PFS - time to event) based on Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours (RECIST v1.1). Time from randomisation to any progression (based on RECIST) and/or death. Those progression-free and alive will be censored at time last seen. |
|
E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
Upon disease progression or 1 year post randomisation, whichever comes first. |
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
- Safety, tolerability (side effects) and feasibility of use (number of participants requiring dose delays or reductions and/or treatment withdrawal). - Objective response rate as assessed by RECIST v1.1. - Overall survival (OS), time from randomisation to death with those still alive censored at date last seen. - Change in tumour volume-reduction - from randomisation to 6 weeks. |
|
E.5.2.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
At one year post randomisation, apart from the change in tumour volume-reduction which has a timepoint of 6 weeks. |
