Study of TRC105 + Paclitaxel/Carboplatin and Bevacizumab in Patients With NSCLC

October 4, 2019 updated by: Tracon Pharmaceuticals Inc.

A Phase 1b Dose-escalation Study of TRC105 in Combination With Paclitaxel/Carboplatin and Bevacizumab in Patients With Stage 4 Non-Squamous Cell Lung Cancer

This is a single center, open-label, nonrandomized, phase 1b, dose-finding study of TRC105 in combination with standard dose bevacizumab and paclitaxel/carboplatin in treatment-naive patients with stage IV non-squamous NSCLC.

Study Overview

Status

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

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

Bevacizumab is a monoclonal antibody to vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) that inhibits angiogenesis and extends survival in non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients when given with carboplatin and paclitaxel. TRC105 is an antibody to endoglin, an essential angiogenic target expressed on proliferating endothelial cells that is distinct from the VEGFR and overexpressed in response to VEGF inhibition. TRC105 inhibits angiogenesis, tumor growth and metastases in preclinical models and complements the activity of antibodies and small molecules that target the VEGFR. In a phase 1b study, the combination of TRC105 and bevacizumab produced radiographic reductions in tumor volume in bevacizumab-refractory patients, and was well tolerated. TRC105 was also well tolerated with chemotherapy in a trial with capecitabine in breast cancer patients. The use of TRC105 with bevacizumab and paclitaxel/carboplatin may result in more effective angiogenesis inhibition and improved clinical efficacy over that seen with bevacizumab and paclitaxel/carboplatin alone.

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

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Key Inclusion Criteria:

  • Stage 4 Non-Squamous Cell Lung Cancer that has not been treated previously with systemic chemotherapy or bevacizumab, but may have received prior targeted treatment (e.g., alk1 inhibitor)
  • ECOG performance status ≤ 1
  • Measurable disease by RECIST

Key Exclusion Criteria:

  • Non-small cell lung cancer of squamous histology
  • Current treatment on another therapeutic clinical trial
  • Patients who have received wide field radiotherapy ≤ 28 days (defined as > 50% of volume of pelvic bones or equivalent) or limited field radiation for palliation < 14 days prior to study registration or those patients who have not recovered adequately from side effects of such therapy
  • Active bleeding or pathologic condition that carries a high risk of bleeding (e.g. hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia). Patients who have been uneventfully anti-coagulated with low molecular weight heparin are eligible.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events
Time Frame: from screening until completion of follow-up, on average 6 months
Incidence of treatment-emergent (i.e. TRC105, bevacizumab, paclitaxel and/or carboplatin) adverse events by CTCAE v4.03
from screening until completion of follow-up, on average 6 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
