Study of Paclitaxel, Carboplatin, and PF-05212384 in Advanced or Metastatic NSCLC (UF-STO-LUNG-002)

A Non-Randomized Phase Ib-II Protocol of Paclitaxel, Carboplatin and the Dual PI3K/mTOR Kinase Inhibitor, PF-05212384, for Patients With Advanced, or Metastatic Non-Small Cell Carcinoma of the Lung

The purpose of this research study is to determine if the study drug, Gedatolisib (PF-05212384), given in combination with paclitaxel and carboplatin will work against unresectable non-small cell lung cancer.

Study Overview

• Status: Terminated
• Conditions: Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
• Intervention / Treatment: Drug: Gedatolisib; Drug: Paclitaxel; Drug: Carboplatin

Detailed Description

Approximately 70% of patients with unresectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who receive and progress through frontline chemotherapy will be eligible for second line treatments. Any of the agents which are available for frontline therapy can be used in the salvage setting, though only erlotinib, docetaxel, and pemetrexed (in non-squamous cell carcinoma) are FDA-approved in the salvage setting based upon their demonstrated survival benefit in randomized phase III trials. All three appear to be roughly equivalent in terms of clinical benefit, which is admittedly modest, with response rates <10%, clinical benefit rates of approximately 50%, and overall survivals of approximately 6 months. Still, a substantial number of patients may not benefit from the agents in the salvage treatment setting, thus it is critical to identify those patients who stand to benefit the most.

The study will consist of two phases, Ib and II. The phase Ib portion will study dose escalations in separate 3+3 cohorts using escalating doses of PF-05212384. The phase II portion will consist of a two stage Simon design. The doses for paclitaxel (200 mg/m2, Q21 days) and carboplatin (AUC=6, Q21 days) do not adjust as part of the study design. The dose of PF-05212384 will be determined during the Phase Ib portion.

The primary endpoint of the phase Ib portion of this protocol is to determine a tolerable phase II dose of PF-05212384 in combination with paclitaxel and carboplatin. The primary endpoint of the phase II portion of this study is to determine the objective response rate of disease to the administration of PF-05212384 in combination with paclitaxel and carboplatin. A secondary endpoint of this study will be progression-free survival following PF-05212384 therapy.

• Participants may have received prior chemotherapy for NSCLC
• In the Phase II portion, subjects must have disease which lacks PTEN expression by immunohistochemistry, or has known prior activating PI3K or inactivating PTEN gene mutations (mutations will not be assayed for specifically)
• Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status score < 2
• Life expectancy ≥ 12 week
• Participants must have measureable disease by RECIST criteria
• Absolute neutrophil count > 1500 mm3 (individuals with benign ethnic neutropenia may be enrolled if they have no evidence of infectious diathesis, or febrile neutropenia at the time of enrollment)

Prior to study enrollment, women of childbearing potential must be advised of the importance of avoiding pregnancy during trial participation and the potential risk factors for an unintentional pregnancy. WOCBP include any woman who has experienced menarche and who has not undergone successful surgical sterilization (hysterectomy, bilateral tubal ligation, or bilateral oophorectomy) or who is not post-menopausal. Post-menopause is defined as:
• Amenorrhea that has lasted for ≥ 12 consecutive months without another cause, or
• For women with irregular menstrual periods who are taking hormone replacement therapy (HRT), a documented serum follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) level of greater than 35 mIU/mL.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Uncontrolled cardiac disease, congestive heart failure, angina, arrhythmias or hypertension.
• Myocardial infarction or unstable angina within 2 months of treatment.
• Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection or chronic active Hepatitis B (subjects will not be screened for this).

• Serious non-healing wound, ulcer, or bone fracture.
• Evidence or history of bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy
• Major surgery, open biopsy or significant traumatic injury within 4 weeks of first study drug
• Women or men of childbearing potential who are unwilling or unable to use an acceptable method to avoid pregnancy for the entire study period and for at least 6 months after the last dose of study drug
• Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
• History of any other disease, metabolic dysfunction, physical examination finding, or clinical laboratory finding giving reasonable suspicion of a disease or condition that contraindicates the use of protocol therapy or that might affect the interpretation of the results of the study or that puts the subject at high risk for treatment complications, in the opinion of the treating physician.
• Prisoners or subjects who are involuntarily incarcerated.
• Subjects who are compulsorily detained for treatment of either a psychiatric or physical illness.
• Subjects demonstrating an inability to comply with the study and/or follow-up procedures.
