E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
- Phase I:
The primary analysis endpoint of the phase I is to determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and the phase II recommended dose (RP2D) of metronomic oral vinorelbine associated with fixed dose of durvalumab + tremelimumab combination in patient with advanced solid tumour.
Toxicities are to be graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminalogy Criteria (NCI CTC, version 4.0)
The Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) is defined in section 5.3.4 of the protocol.
All patients who receive any study treatment are monitored for toxicity and included in the safety analysis. To be evaluable for DLT, a patient must either be observed for a full phase I duration period, i.e. 4-week DLT evaluation period from the treatments initiation, or have experienced DLT.
- Phase II:
The primary analysis endpoint of the phase II is the CBR defined as the rate of complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or SD lasting at least 24 weeks according to RECIST v1.1 and will be evaluated based on the best response status obtained until 24 weeks after starting treatment.
Analysis of the primary endpoint will be carried out sequentially with interim analyses planned after 24 weeks of follow up of the first 10 patients of each cohort and then every 5 patients. At each analysis the Bayesian model will be updated and:
• Bayesian estimation of the mean CBR given each prior distribution will be provided with the associated 95% credibility interval (precision of the Bayesian estimation).
• If the stopping criterion for inefficacy is fulfilled for 2 out of 3 prior distributions, then the trial stop will be recommended

E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
ORR, iORR, the iCBR24 will be presented with the associated 95% confidence intervals (CIs).
PFS, iPFS, OS, DoR, and iDoR will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method and will be described in terms of medians with the associated 95% CIs.
The safety will be evaluated using the incidence of treatment emergent adverse events (TEAE), serious adverse Events (SAE), and deaths. Tolerance will be assessed by NCI-CTCAE v4.0 scale. Descriptive statistics will be provided for characterising and assessing patient tolerance to treatment.
