A Study of Alectinib in RET-rearranged Non-small Cell Lung Cancer or RET-mutated Thyroid Cancer
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This research trial is studying a drug called alectinib as a possible treatment for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with specific genetic alterations known as ALK or RET rearrangements, and thyroid cancer with RET rearrangements.

Phase 1/Phase 2 |
Detailed Description
This is a Phase I/II research study, which means that researchers are testing different doses of the drug alectinib in participants with cancer to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
The FDA (the U.S. Food and Drug Administration) has approved alectinib as a treatment option for NSCLC, but at a different dosage.
There are two parts to this study, Phase 1 and Phase 2. In Phase 1, patients with ALK or RET rearranged NSCLC will receive different doses of alectinib to determine the highest dose that can be administered without severe or unmanageable side effects. This is called the maximum tolerated dose and will be the recommended dose for the next part of the study, Phase 2. A Phase I clinical trial tests the safety of an investigational drug and also tries to define the appropriate dose of the investigational drug to use for further studies. "Investigational" means that the drug is being studied.
During Phase 2, participants with RET rearranged NSCLC or thyroid cancer will be given the maximum tolerated dose. During both Phase 1 and Phase 2, the investigators will determine the effect alectinib has on the body, and the effect alectinib has on cancer.
Alectinib belongs to a class of drugs known as tyrosine kinase inhibitors, which stop tyrosine kinases from working. Tyrosine kinases are enzymes that are responsible for activating many proteins in the body's cells. The ALK and RET kinases play an important role in the survival and growth of tumor cells and in the ability of tumor cells to spread to different parts of the body. In laboratory studies and in patients, alectinib has been shown to block the ALK and RET kinases. By blocking these kinases and stopping them from working, it is hoped that alectinib may prevent the survival of tumor cells in addition to stopping their growth and ability to spread.
The purpose of this research study is to learn about the effects of the study drug alectinib, and to find the best dose for treating ALK-positive or RET-positive cancers.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Maximum Tolerated Dose (Phase 1) [28 Days]
The maximally administered dose (MAD) of the study medication will be defined as the dose level where at least two subjects develop toxicities consistent with a DLT definition. In this situation, the dose level immediately below the MAD will be defined as the MTD.
- Objective Response Rate [8 weeks]
Preliminary evaluation of objective response rate (ORR) of alectinib was assessed according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. Per RECIST v1.1 for target lesions and assessed by MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Area Under the Plasma Concentration Versus Time Curve (AUC) of Alectinib [4 months]
AUC pharmacokinetic parameters will be estimated using non-compartmental models. Comparisons across dose levels will be made to assess proportionality. Results are incomplete because study closed to accrual early.
- Progression Free Survival [2 Years]
Progression evaluated using RECIST 1.1 Criteria. Results are incomplete because study closed to accrual early.
- Overall Survival [OS was calculated at the time of analysis, which was approximately 22 months after the study opened to enrollment.]
Overall survival is recorded from start of enrollment through study completion.
- Duration of Response [2 Years]
Response evaluated using RECIST 1.1 Criteria. Results are incomplete because study closed to accrual early.
- Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Alectinib [4 months]
Cmax pharmacokinetic parameters will be estimated using non-compartmental models. Comparisons across dose levels will be made to assess proportionality. Results are incomplete because study closed to accrual early.

5 patients were analyzed for the MTD, but the MTD was not reached due to incomplete enrollment (6 patients required to evaluate MTD, per protocol; study closed to enrollment after 5 participants were enrolled). There were no participants analyzed in the Phase 2 portion of the study (Cohorts A, B, and C), hence why those fields are NA. |

Adverse Events
Time Frame | Adverse events were collected for all participants from first dose through the follow-up period. AE data was collected for approximately 22 months on this study. | |||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Adverse Event Reporting Description | AE data is available for the 5 patients enrolled to the Phase I portion of the study. Since the study closed early, no participants were enrolled to Phase 2 Cohorts A, B, or C, and AE and mortality data are not available. | |||||||
Arm/Group Title | Phase 1 RP2D of Alectinib | Phase 2 Cohort A | Phase 2 Cohort B | Phase 2 Cohort C | ||||
Arm/Group Description | The investigators are looking for the highest dose of the study drug that can be administered safely without severe or unmanageable side effects in participants that have NSCLC, not everyone who participates in this research study will receive the same dose of the study drug. The dosage will depend on the number of participants who have been enrolled in the study and how well the dosage has been tolerated. A 7-day lead-in dosing period will be administered at the start of each dose level. Each treatment cycle will be defined as 28 consecutive days. The AE data presented here includes all 5 participants which were enrolled to the Phase 1 portion of the study, to Dose Level 1. | Participants with RET-positive NSCLC with no previous history of RET-TKI therapy. No participants were enrolled to Cohort A. | Participants with RET-positive NSCLC with previous history of RET-TKI therapy. No participants were enrolled to Cohort B. | Participants with RET-positive thyroid cancer. No participants were enrolled to Cohort C. | ||||
