A Study of TAK-788 in Japanese Adults With Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This study is in 2 parts. Different participants will take part in the 1st and 2nd parts of the study.
The main aim of the 1st part of the study is to check how much TAK-788 adults with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) can receive without getting side effects from it.
The main aim of the 2nd part of the study is to learn if the condition of adults with non-small cell lung cancer improves after treatment with TAK-788. Another aim is to continue checking for side effects from TAK-788.
In the 1st part of the study, at the first visit, the study doctor will check who can take part. For those that can take part, participants will take a capsule of TAK-788 once a day for 28 days. This will count as 1 cycle. Different small groups of participants will receive lower to higher doses of TAK-788. The study doctors will check for side effects after each dose of TAK 788. In this way, researchers can work out the best dose of TAK-788 to give participants in the 2nd part of the study.
Participants will visit the clinic 30 days after their treatment has finished for a final check-up.
In the 2nd part of the study, at the first visit, the study doctor will check who can take part. Participants will receive the best dose of TAK-788 worked out from the 1st part of the study. Participants will receive TAK-788 in the same way as those from the 1st part of the study. The study doctors will learn if the condition of these participants improves after treatment with TAK-788. The study doctors will also check for side effects from TAK-788.
After treatment has finished, participants will visit the clinic every 12 weeks until the end of the study.
In both parts of the study, participants can receive TAK-788 for up to just over 1 year, or longer if their condition stays improved.

Detailed Description
The drug being tested in this study is called TAK-788. TAK-788 is being tested to treat Japanese participants with NSCLC. This study has two parts (Phase 1 part and Phase 2 part), Phase 1 part of this study will look at the safety, efficacy, tolerability and PK of TAK-788 orally administered once daily, and will determine a RP2D. Phase 2 study will look at the efficacy and safety of TAK-788 in treatment naive Japanese NSCLC patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) exon 20 insertion mutation. All participants will be assigned to Phase 1 part or Phase 2 part and will be asked to take TAK-788 capsule as following dosage and regimen;
Phase 1 part; TAK-788, 40 mg as starting dose, once daily, and escalating up to 160 mg until a Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD). An expansion phase may be followed at any dose to further confirm safety observations following identification of MTD/RP2D.
Phase 2 part; TAK-788, 160 mg, once daily
The study will enroll approximately 58-63 participants (Phase 1 part; 28-33 and Phase 2 part; 30).
This multi-center trial will be conducted in Japan. The overall time to participate in this study of Phase 1 part is approximately 3 years and Phase 2 part is approximately 4 years. Participants will make multiple visits to the clinic in the treatment period, and the post-treatment period including follow-up assessments after the last dose of the study drug.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Phase 1 Part: Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) of Orally Administered TAK-788 [Up to approximately 28 days]
The RP2D is the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or less. An RP2D less than the MTD may be chosen if aspects of tolerability or efficacy not encompassed by the MTD determination suggest utilizing a lower dose.

- Phase 2 Part: Patient-reported Symptoms, Functioning, and Health-related Quality of Life (HRQoL) as Assessed by the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire (QLQ)-C30 [Up to approximately 4 years]
EORTC QLQ-C30 is a cancer-specific questionnaire which comprises of 5 functional scales (physical, role, cognitive, emotional, and social functioning); 3 symptom scales (fatigue, pain, and nausea/vomiting); and a global health status/quality-of-life (QoL) scale. Six single-item scales are also included (dyspnea, insomnia, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhea, and financial difficulties). Raw scores will be converted into scale scores ranging from 0 to 100. For the functional scales and the global health status/QoL scale, higher scores represent better HRQoL, whereas for the symptom scales lower scores represent better HRQoL (i.e., a low level of symptomatology/problems).
- Phase 2 Part: Patient-reported Symptoms (particular core symptoms of lung cancer), Functioning, and HRQoL as Assessed by the EORTC lung cancer module QLQ-LC13 [Up to approximately 4 years]
EORTC QLQ-LC13 contains 13 questions to assess for: dyspnea, and a series of single items including pain, coughing, sore mouth, dysphagia, peripheral neuropathy, alopecia, and hemoptysis. Score of each item will range from 0 to 100, where 0 indicates no symptoms and 100 indicates worst possible symptoms.
