Durvalumab and Stereotactic Radiotherapy for Advanced NSCLC

Stopped early · Phase 2

Conditions studied: Non Small Cell Lung Cancer

In brief

This is a randomized Phase II study which is designed to determine the impact of stereotactic radiotherapy and durvalumab on quality-of-life and oncologic outcomes in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. Durvalumab (Imfinzi) and stereotactic radiotherapy, with each fraction of radiotherapy is given every other day on a standard stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SAbR) schedule or every four weeks on the personalized ultra-fractionated stereotactic adaptive radiotherapy (PULSAR) schedule. Subjects will be followed for a period of 2 years after completion of treatment or until death, whichever occurs first. Specifically, subjects will be followed at 1, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, and 24 months following treatment. After the 2 year follow up, the patient can continue routine follow up with their physicians, per standard of care. Subjects removed from therapy for unacceptable adverse events will be followed until resolution or stabilization of the adverse event.

Who can join

Age: 18 and older. Sex: any. Healthy volunteers: not accepted.

You may qualify if…

• Patients must have biopsy-proven metastatic non-small cell lung cancer and eligible for receipt of immunotherapy, based on standard of care
• Patients can present with either de novo metastatic disease or recurrent disease
• Patients must have at least one (1) symptomatic or progressive metastatic sites with no more than 10 metastatic sites, based on standard imaging studies
• Patients cannot have received any prior radiation therapy or surgery to the intended radiation treatment area (index lesion)
• Patients with brain metastases may be enrolled if all lesions are treated with radiation therapy or surgery prior to start of protocol therapy
• Metastases in major lower extremity weight-bearing bones or spine should undergo surgical stabilization if indicated
• Age greater than or equal to 18 years.
• Both men and women and members of all races and ethnic groups will be included
• Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance status 0 to 2 (Appendix A)
• Adequate normal organ and bone marrow function as defined by:
• Haemoglobin ≥9.0 g/dL
• Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.0 × 109 /L
• Platelet count ≥75 × 109/L
• Serum bilirubin ≤1.5 x institutional upper limit of normal (ULN). This will not apply to patients with confirmed Gilbert's syndrome (persistent or recurrent hyperbilirubinemia that is predominantly unconjugated in the absence of hemolysis or hepatic pathology), who will be allowed only in consultation with their physician.
• AST (SGOT)/ALT (SGPT) ≤2.5X institutional upper limit of normal unless liver metastases are present, in which case it must be ≤5X ULN
• Measured creatinine clearance (CL) >40 mL/min or Calculated creatinine CL>40 mL/min by the Cockcroft-Gault formula (Cockcroft and Gault 1976) or by 24-hour urine collection for determination of creatinine clearance:
• Males:
• Creatinine CL (mL/min) = (Weight (kg) x (140 - Age)) ÷ (72 x serum creatinine (mg/dL))
• Females:
• Creatinine CL (mL/min) = ((Weight (kg) x (140 - Age)) ÷ (72 x serum creatinine (mg/dL))) x 0.85
• All men, as well as women of child-bearing potential must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry, for the duration of study participation, and for 90 days following completion of therapy. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately.
• Medically accepted forms of birth control include male condoms plus spermicide, diaphragm, cervical cap, the placement of a Copper T intrauterine device (IUD), birth control pills, Levonorgesterel-releasing intrauterine system (IUS), hormone implants or injections, or combined pill, minipill patch, or a partner who has undergone a vasectomy (surgical sterility).
• A female of child-bearing potential is any woman (regardless of sexual orientation, having undergone a tubal ligation, or remaining celibate by choice) who meets the following criteria:
• Has not undergone a hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy; or
• Has not been naturally postmenopausal for at least 12 consecutive months (i.e., has had menses at any time in the preceding 12 consecutive months).

You may not qualify if…

• Active or prior documented autoimmune or inflammatory disorders (including inflammatory bowel disease [e.g., colitis or Crohn's disease], diverticulitis [with the exception of diverticulosis], systemic lupus erythematosus, Sarcoidosis syndrome, or Wegener syndrome [granulomatosis with polyangiitis, Graves' disease, rheumatoid arthritis, hypophysitis, uveitis, etc]). The following are exceptions to this criterion:
• Patients with vitiligo or alopecia
• Patients with hypothyroidism (e.g., following Hashimoto syndrome) stable on hormone replacement
• Any chronic skin condition that does not require systemic therapy
• Patients without active disease in the last 5 years may be included but only after consultation with the study physician
• Patients with celiac disease controlled by diet alone
• Administration of two or more lines of systemic therapy for the diagnosis of metastatic non-small cell lung cancer
• Prior receipt of systemic therapy for the management of high-risk early stage or locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer, prior to the development of metastatic disease, would not count towards the number of receipt of systemic therapy
• Subjects may not be receiving any other investigational agents for the treatment of the cancer under study.
• Patients with untreated brain metastases
• Patients with progressive metastatic disease involving the skin or subcutaneous tissues, esophagus, stomach, intestines, or mesenteric lymph nodes that are felt to be too high risk to treat with radiation therapy to protocol dose.
• Patients cannot have pathologic fracture at the evaluated site
• Patients cannot have untreated spinal cord compression
• History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to durvalumab or other agents used in study
• Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that, in the opinion of the investigator, would limit compliance with study requirements
• Subjects must not be pregnant or nursing due to the potential for congenital abnormalities and the potential of this regimen to harm nursing infants
• Male or female patients of reproductive potential who are not willing to employ effective birth control from screening to 90 days after the last dose of durvalumab monotherapy
• Participation in another clinical study with an investigational product during the last 3 months
• Concurrent enrolment in another clinical study, unless it is an observational (non-interventional) clinical study or during the follow-up period of an interventional study
• Receipt of the last dose of anticancer therapy (chemotherapy, immunotherapy, endocrine therapy, targeted therapy, biologic therapy, tumor embolization, monoclonal antibodies) ≤7 days prior to the first dose of study drug If sufficient wash-out time has not occurred due to the schedule or PK properties of an agent, a longer wash-out period will be required, as agreed by AstraZeneca/MedImmune and the investigator
• Any unresolved toxicity NCI CTCAE Grade ≥2 from previous anticancer therapy with the exception of alopecia, vitiligo, and the laboratory values defined in the inclusion criteria:
• Patients with Grade ≥2 neuropathy will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis after consultation with the Study Physician.
• Patients with irreversible toxicity not reasonably expected to be exacerbated by treatment with durvalumab may be included only after consultation with the Study Physician.
• Any concurrent chemotherapy, immunotherapy, biologic, or hormonal therapy for cancer treatment. Concurrent use of hormonal therapy for non-cancer-related conditions (e.g., hormone replacement therapy) is acceptable.
• Major surgical procedure (as defined by the Investigator) within 28 days prior to the first dose of immunotherapy. Note: Local surgery of isolated lesions for palliative intent is acceptable
