Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This phase II trial studies how well osimertinib with or without bevacizumab works in treating patients with EGFR positive non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to the brain (brain metastases). Osimertinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Bevacizumab may stop or slow non-small cell lung cancer by blocking the growth of new blood vessels necessary for tumor growth. Giving osimertinib with or without bevacizumab may work better in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 2

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
  1. To determine the progression-free survival with AZD9291 (osimertinib) plus bevacizumab compared to AZD9291 (osimertinib) alone.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
  1. To assess the safety and tolerability of the combination of AZD9291 (osimertinib) and bevacizumab.

  2. To evaluate the time to progression in the central nervous system (CNS) with AZD9291 (osimertinib) plus bevacizumab versus single-agent osimertinib.

  3. To determine the overall response rate and the intracranial response rate to the combination versus single agent.

  4. To assess the overall survival in patients receiving AZD9291 (osimertinib) plus bevacizumab compared to AZD9291 (osimertinib) alone.

TRANSLATIONAL OBJECTIVES:
  1. To investigate mechanisms of sensitivity and resistance to combination AZD9291 (osimertinib) plus bevacizumab versus AZD9291 (osimertinib) by molecularly characterizing tumor samples including T790M status.

  2. To assess whether circulating tumor deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) in plasma can be used as an indicator of sensitivity and resistance to treatment.

  3. To determine whether an angiogenic signature using a multiplex panel array is associated with benefit from the combination of AZD9291 (osimertinib) plus bevacizumab.

  4. To investigate angiogenesis, immune and signaling pathway markers in tumor samples to determine biomarkers predictive of benefit from combination therapy.

OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.

ARM I: Patients receive osimertinib orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-21 and bevacizumab intravenously (IV) over 30-90 minutes on day 1. Cycles repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

ARM II: Patients receive osimertinib PO QD on days 1-21. Cycles repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for a minimum of 4 weeks.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Progression free survival (PFS) [From start of treatment to time of progression (in CNS or non-CNS disease) or death, whichever occurs first, assessed up to 2 years]

      The two study arms will be compared for PFS with Kaplan-Meier estimates and log-rank tests. The Rothman confidence interval (CI), and the simultaneous confidence bands will be reported. In addition, the possible risk factors will be compared for survival with log-rank test. For multivariate analysis, the proportional hazards Cox model will be applied to investigate potential prognostic factors, such as age and stage of disease of the PFS data. The adjusted p-values of the hazard ratios and the adjusted 95% confidence interval will be reported.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Overall survival (OS) [From start of treatment to death, assessed up to 2 years]

      The two study arms will be compared for OS with Kaplan-Meier estimates and log-rank tests. The Rothman CI, and the simultaneous confidence bands will be reported. In addition, the possible risk factors will be compared for survival with log-rank test. For multivariate analysis, the proportional hazards Cox model will be applied to investigate potential prognostic factors, such as age and stage of disease of the OS data. The adjusted p-values of the hazard ratios and the adjusted 95% confidence interval will be reported.

    2. OS rate [At 12 months]

      The two study arms will be compared for OS with Kaplan-Meier estimates and log-rank tests. The Rothman CI, and the simultaneous confidence bands will be reported. In addition, the possible risk factors will be compared for survival with log-rank test. For multivariate analysis, the proportional hazards Cox model will be applied to investigate potential prognostic factors, such as age and stage of disease of the OS data. The adjusted p-values of the hazard ratios and the adjusted 95% confidence interval will be reported.

    3. Incidence of adverse events [Up to 2 years]

      Assessed by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events. Adverse medical events will be tabulated. National Cancer Institute toxicity grade 1 to grade 4 laboratory abnormalities will be listed.

    4. Overall response rate [Up to 2 years]

      Will be estimated using the 95% confidence CI based on Wilson's method. The Wilcoxon rank sum test and Fisher's exact test will be applied to study the association between the response status and the continuous and categorical variables respectively.

    5. Intracranial response rate [Up to 2 years]

      Will be estimated using the 95% confidence CI based on Wilson's method. The Wilcoxon rank sum test and Fisher's exact test will be applied to study the association between the response status and the continuous and categorical variables respectively.

    6. Time to intracranial progression [Up to 2 years]

      Will be assessed by Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology Brain Metastases.

    7. Brain metastasis response rate [Up to 2 years]

    8. Time to central nervous system (CNS) progression [From start of treatment to time of progression in the CNS, assessed up to 2 years]

    9. Intracranial response [Up to 2 years]

      Assessed by Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology Criteria-Glioblastoma Multiforme. Will be estimated using the 95% confidence interval CI based on Wilson's method. The Wilcoxon rank sum test and Fisher's exact test will be applied to study the association between the response status and the continuous and categorical variables respectively. The generalized non-linear model and logistic regression will be applied for multivariable data analysis. The adjusted p-value and 95% CI of the odds ratios will be reported.

    10. Objective response defined as a complete or partial response [Up to 2 years]
