A Clinical Trial of Fruquintinib in Patients With Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center Phase II clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Fruquintinib plus best supportive care in patients with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer who failed to second-line standard chemotherapy.

Phase 2 |
Detailed Description
Approximately 90 subjects will be randomized to Fruquintinib plus best supportive care or placebo plus best supportive care at a 2:1 ratio.
Randomization will be stratified by EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptor) gene status:
mutant vs. wild type vs. unknown.
All subjects will receive Fruquintinib/placebo for consecutive 3 weeks, followed by one-week rest. A treatment cycle consists of 4 weeks. Tumor assessment will be performed every 4 weeks in the first 3 cycles, and every 8 weeks since the 4th cycle, until disease progression. Further treatment and survival follow-up after progression will be recorded.

Experimental: Treatment Group The subjects will receive oral Fruquintinib at fasting state 5mg+best supportive care, once daily for the first 3 consecutive weeks and dose holiday for 1 week according to their dose regimens until the occurrence of disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent |
Drug: Fruquintinib
After checking eligibility criteria, subjects will be randomized into Fruquintinib plus best supportive care group (treatment group) or placebo plus best supportive care group (control group) in a ration of 2:1.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Progressive free survival (PFS) [measured every 4 weeks at first 2 cycles and every 8 weeks since the third cycle from randomization to disease progression, assessed up to one year]
To compare the Progressive Free Survival (PFS) of Fruquintinib plus best supportive care (BSC) versus placebo plus BSC in patients advanced non-squamous NSCLC patients who failed to standard second-line chemotherapy according to RECIST 1.1
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Objective response rate (ORR) [measured every 4 weeks at first 2 cycles and every 8 weeks since the third cycle from randomization to disease progression, assessed up to one year]
To evaluate objective response rate (ORR) in the two groups according to RECIST 1.1
- Disease control rate (DCR) [measured every 4 weeks at first 2 cycles and every 8 weeks since the third cycle from randomization to disease progression, assessed up to one year]
To evaluate disease control rate (DCR) in the two groups according to RECIST 1.1
- Overall survival (OS) [every 2 months from randomization to death, assessed up to one year]
To evaluate overall survival (OS) in the two groups
- safety and tolerability by incidence, severity and outcome of adverse events [From randomization to 30 days after last dose]
To evaluate the safety and tolerability in the two groups by incidence, severity and outcomes of AEs and categorized by severity in accordance with the NCI CTC AE Version 4.0.
