Phase II Study of Buparlisib + Docetaxel in Advanced or Metastatic Squamous Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) Patients

Stopped early · Phase 1 · Has a placebo group

Conditions studied: Squamous Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

In brief

This is a multi-center, open-label Phase Ib dose escalation part followed by a randomized double-blinded placebo controlled Phase II part. The Phase Ib part will determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD)/Recommended Phase II Dose (RP2D) of buparlisib in combination with docetaxel. Subsequently the MTD/RP2D will be investigated in a Phase II randomized trial in patients with advanced or metastatic squamous NSCLC.

A drug provided as maintenance therapy following cytotoxic chemotherapy will be considered to be part of that regimen.
• Note: Patients who received paclitaxel therapy are eligible for this trial. •Patient has adequate tumor tissue (either archival or new tumor biopsy) for the analysis of PI3K-related biomarkers.
• Enrollment in the Phase II part of the study is contingent on the central laboratory confirming receipt of an adequate amount of tissue including sufficient DNA for analysis.

• Patient has a score ≥ 12 on the PHQ-9 questionnaire.
• Patient selects a response of "1, 2 or 3" to question number 9 on the PHQ-9 questionnaire regarding potential for suicidal thoughts or ideation (independent of the total score of the PHQ-9).
