E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the ORR (CR + PR) associated with gemcitabine-carboplatin plus necitumumab in patients with locally advanced or metastatic EGFR expressing squamous NSCLC who have not received prior chemotherapy for this condition. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
The secondary objectives of this study are:
• to evaluate OS, PFS, and DCR;
• to evaluate the safety profile of necitumumab in combination with gemcitabine-carboplatin chemotherapy;
• to characterize the PK of necitumumab.

confirmed by histology or cytology local pathology report.

- Measurable disease at the time of study entry as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1)
- Has tumor tissue available for biomarker analyses.
- Has resolution of all clinically significant toxic effects of prior adjuvant and/or neoadjuvant chemotherapy, surgery, radiotherapy (with the exception of alopecia) to Grade ≤1 by the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE), Version 4.0.
- Has an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG PS) score of 0-1
- Have discontinued all previous treatments for cancer and recovered from the acute effects of therapy (Biologic agents (for example, antibodies) and Immunotherapy >=4 weeks; Chest radiotherapy >= weeks; Major surgery, excluding biopsy >=4 weeks)
|
|
E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
- Has nonsquamous NSCLC
- Has received prior anticancer therapy targeting the EGFR, vascular
endothelial growth factor (VEGF), or VEGF receptor
- Has received previous chemotherapy (including concurrent
chemoradiation) for advanced NSCLC (patients who have received adjuvant
and/or neoadjuvant chemotherapy are eligible if the last administration
occurred at least 1 year prior to start of therapy).
- Has undergone major surgery or received any investigational
therapy in the 4 weeks prior to study enrollment.
- Has undergone chest irradiation within 4 weeks prior to study
enrollment (except palliative irradiation of bone lesions, which is allowed).
- Has brain metastases that are symptomatic or require ongoing treatment with steroids or anticonvulsants.
- Has a bleeding tumor
- History of arterial or venous thromboembolism within 3 months prior to study enrollment.
- Has a history or evidence of current clinically-relevant coronary artery disease of current ≥ Class III as defined by Canadian Cardiovascular Society Angina Grading Scale (Campeau 1976) or congestive heart failure of current ≥ Class III as defined by the New York Heart Association.
- Has experienced myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to study enrollment. |
