Brief Summary

This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of aflibercept in the treatment of participants with advanced chemoresistant non-small cell lung adenocarcinoma (NSCLA). Primary objective:

  • To determine the overall objective response rate (ORR) of AVE0005 (ziv-aflibercept, aflibercept, VEGF trap, ZALTRAP®) 4.0 mg/kg intravenously (IV) every 2 weeks in participants with platinum- and erlotinib-resistant, locally advanced or metastatic NSCLA. Secondary objective:
  • To assess duration of response (DR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) in this participant population
  • To evaluate the safety profile of IV AVE0005 (ziv-aflibercept, aflibercept, VEGF trap, ZALTRAP®). This study employed an Independent Review Committee (IRC) for radiological tumor assessments. For all tumor assessment-related efficacy variables, two analyses were performed: the primary analysis was based on Independent Review Committee (IRC) reviewed data and the secondary analysis was based on Investigator evaluation. In addition, both Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) and Modified Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (mRECIST) were used to assess tumors. Where as RECIST criteria only consider the longest diameter of the tumors for calculations pertaining to changes in tumor size, mRECIST assessments also account for the differences in the cavities of lesions observed in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Responses based on RECIST and mRECIST are reported.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Confirmed Objective Response (OR) Based Upon Modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Assessed by the Independent Review Committee (IRC).

    OR was either complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) based on RECIST or modified RECIST. CR was the disappearance of all target/nor-target lesions; and PR was at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of target lesions, with reference to the baseline sum LD (According to modified RECIST, to calculate LD for cavitated lesions, the longest cavitation diameters were subtracted from the LD of cavitated target lesions). Assessments were made by the IRC, and confirmed by repeat tumor imaging 4-6 weeks after documentation of the initial response.

    up to 2.5 years from initial treatment

  • Confirmed Objective Response Based Upon Modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Assessed by the Investigator.

    OR was either complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) based on RECIST or modified RECIST. CR was the disappearance of all target/nor-target lesions; and PR was at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of target lesions, with reference to the baseline sum LD (According to modified RECIST, to calculate LD for cavitated lesions, the longest cavitation diameters were subtracted from the LD of cavitated target lesions). Assessments were made by the Investigator, and confirmed by repeat tumor imaging 4-6 weeks after documentation of the initial response.

    up to 2.5 years from initial treatment

Secondary Outcomes (10)

  • Duration of Response (DR)

    up to 2.5 years from initial treatment

  • Progression-free Survival (PFS) Time Assessed by the Independent Review Committee (IRC)

  • Progression-free Survival (PFS) Time Assessed by the Investigator

Study Arms (1)

aflibercept 4.0 mg/kg

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants with metastatic non-small-cell lung adenocarcinoma administered 4.0 mg/kg Aflibercept every 2 weeks until a study withdrawal criterion was met.

Drug: Aflibercept (ziv-aflibercept, AVE0005, VEGF trap, ZALTRAP®)

Interventions

Aflibercept 4.0 mg/kg administered intravenously (IV) over a period of at least 1 hour once every 2 weeks. Aflibercept could be reduced by 1 dose level (to 3.0 mg/kg) or 2 dose levels (to 2.0 mg/kg) in case of uncontrolled hypertension or urinary protein \>3.5 g/24 hours. Intrapatient dose escalation was not to be permitted. Participants requiring more than 2 dose level reductions would be withdrawn from study treatment.

aflibercept 4.0 mg/kg
