Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

    • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).

    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   44335   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    Study is designed with two primary endpoints that will be analyzed on randomized participants at the time of the cutoff date for each given analysis (progressive free survival [PFS] and overall survival [OS])
    Study success is defined either on PFS or OS
    The primary objective is to determine whether SAR408701 improves the progression free survival (PFS) when compared to docetaxel in participants with metastatic non-squamous NSCLC expressing CEACAM5 ≥2+ in intensity in at least 50% of the tumor cell population and previously treated with standard-of-care platinum-based chemotherapy and an immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)
    The primary objective is to determine whether SAR408701 improves the overall survival (OS) when compared with docetaxel in participants with metastatic non-squamous NSCLC expressing CEACAM5 ≥2+ in intensity in at least 50% of the tumor cell population and previously treated with standard-of-care platinum-based chemotherapy and an immune checkpoint inhibitor

    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    • To compare the objective response rate (ORR) of SAR408701 with docetaxel
    • To compare the health related quality of life (HRQOL) of SAR408701 with docetaxel
    • To evaluate the safety of SAR408701 compared to docetaxel
    • To assess the duration of response (DOR) of SAR408701 compared to docetaxel

    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    • At least 18 years of age or above (or countries legal age of maturity if above 18 years) and signed the informed consent.
    • Histologically or cytologically proven diagnosis of non-squamous NSCLC with metastatic disease progression after platinum-based chemotherapy and immune checkpoint inhibitor.
    • Participants with carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule (CEACAM) 5 expression of ≥2+ in archival tumor sample (or if not available, fresh biopsy sample) involving at least 50 % of the tumor cell population as demonstrated prospectively by central laboratory via immune histochemistry (IHC).
    • At least one measurable lesion by RECIST v1.1 as determined by local site investigator /radiologist assessment.
    • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-1.
    • A female participant who agrees to use effective contraceptive methods during and for at least 7 months after the last dose of study intervention.
    • A male participant who agrees to use effective contraception methods during and for at least 4 months after the last dose of study intervention.

    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    Participants are excluded from the study if any of the following criteria apply:
    • Patients with untreated brain metastases and history of leptomeningeal disease. if previously treated brain metastases no documentation of non-progressive disease in brain within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of study intervention.
    • Significant concomitant illnesses, including all severe medical conditions that would impair the patient’s participation in the study or interpretation of the results.
    • History within the last 3 years of an invasive malignancy other than the one treated in this study, with the exception of resected/ablated basal or squamous-cell carcinoma of the skin or carcinoma in situ of the cervix, or other local tumors considered cured by local treatment.
    • Non-resolution of any prior treatment related toxicity to < grade 2 according to NCI CTCAE V5.0, except for alopecia, vitiligo and active thyroiditis controlled with hormonal replacement therapy
    • History of known acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) related illnesses or known HIV disease requiring antiretroviral treatment, or unresolved viral hepatitis
    • Previous history of and/or unresolved corneal disorders. The use of contact lenses is not permitted.
    • Concurrent treatment with any other anticancer therapy.
    • Prior treatment with docetaxel or maytansinoid derivatives (DM1 or DM4 antibody drug conjugate) or any drug targeting CEACAM5.
    • Contraindication to use of corticosteroid premedication.
    • Previous enrollment in this study and current participation in any other clinical study involving an investigational study treatment or any other type of medical research.
    • Poor bone marrow, liver or kidney functions
    • Hypersensitivity to any of the study interventions, or components thereof (EDTA), or drug (paclitaxel, polysorbate 80) or other allergy that, in the opinion of the Investigator, contraindicates participation in the study.
