Study of Itacitinib in Combination With Docetaxel in Subjects With Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

April 15, 2026 updated by: Incyte Corporation

A Randomized, Phase 2 Study of Itacitinib or Placebo in Combination With Docetaxel in Subjects With Previously Treated Stage IIIb, IV, or Recurrent Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

The primary objectives of this study were to evaluate the safety and tolerability of itacitinib in combination with docetaxel and to select doses for further evaluation (Part 1, safety run-in portion), and to evaluate and compare the overall survival of subjects with previously treated advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) when treated with itacitinib in combination with docetaxel versus docetaxel alone (Part 2, randomized portion).

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Terminated

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The secondary objectives of this study (Part 2) were to evaluate and compare the efficacy of the 2 treatment groups with respect to progression-free survival, overall tumor response, and duration of response, and to evaluate and compare disease control, safety, and tolerability of itacitinib in combination with docetaxel versus docetaxel alone.

Part 2 of the study was not conducted.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of NSCLC that is Stage IIIb, IV, or recurrent.
  2. Received only 1 prior systemic chemotherapy regimen for Stage IIIb, IV, or recurrent disease not including neoadjuvant and/or adjuvant therapy. (NOTE: Exceptions may be allowed based on prior treatment regimens and tumor types in agreement with protocol requirements.)
  3. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0 to 2.
  4. Life expectancy of ≥12 weeks.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Received prior treatment with docetaxel.

  2. Known active central nervous system (CNS) metastases. Subjects with CNS metastases who have completed a course of therapy would be eligible for the study provided they are clinically stable for at least 1 month prior to study entry, defined as:

    1. No evidence of new or enlarging CNS metastasis or new neurological symptoms attributable to CNS metastases.
    2. Subjects who are receiving concomitant corticosteroids must be on a stable or decreasing dose for at least 4 weeks prior to first dose of study treatment and off all anticonvulsants for at least 4 weeks prior to study entry.
  3. Peripheral neuropathy ≥ Grade 3.
  4. Current or previous other malignancy within 2 years of study entry, except cured basal or squamous cell skin cancer, superficial bladder cancer, prostate intraepithelial neoplasm, carcinoma in situ of the cervix, or other noninvasive malignancy.
  5. Significant, concurrent, uncontrolled medical condition including but not limited to, renal, hepatic, hematological, gastrointestinal, endocrine, pulmonary, cardiac, neurological, cerebral, or psychiatric disease.
  6. Unwilling to be transfused with blood components.
