LUX-Lung 5: Afatinib Plus Weekly Paclitaxel Versus Investigator's Choice of Single Agent Chemotherapy Following Afatinib Monotherapy in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Patients Failing Erlotinib or Gefitinib

Brief Summary
The primary objective of this randomized, open-label, active-controlled, multi-center trial is to determine the efficacy of BIBW 2992 given as an add-on to chemotherapy in patients with NSCLC Stage IIIb or IV progressing after BIBW 2992 monotherapy compared to chemotherapy alone in this patient population. Patients on both treatment arms will receive best supportive care in addition to study treatment. Patients enrolled into the trial will be treated and followed until death or lost to follow-up. Additional information on the health-related quality of life (HRQOL) will be collected.

Conditions
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Progression Free Survival (Part B)
Progression free survival (PFS) time as determined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST), Version 1.1 from day of randomization until disease progression or death for patients randomised to combination therapy with afatinib plus paclitaxel or to investigator's choice of chemotherapy. Median was calculated from the Kaplan-Meier curve.
From randomization until disease progression or death; Up to 32 months
Secondary Outcomes (5)
Progression Free Survival (Part A)
From first dose administration until disease progression or death; Up to 51 months
Overall Survival (Part B)
From randomization until death; Up to 32 months
Objective Response (Part A)
Post baseline tumour-imaging was performed at every 6 weeks thereafter until disease progression; upto 51 months
Objective Response (Part B)
Post baseline tumour-imaging was performed at every 8 weeks thereafter until disease progression; up to 32 Months
Intensity and Incidence of Adverse Events (AEs) for Part A & Part B.
From first administration of treatment until 28 days after last drug administration, up to 51 Months (Part A) and from randomization until 28 days after last drug administration of Trial medication, up to 32 Months (Part B)
Study Arms (2)
Investigator's choice of chemotherapy
ACTIVE COMPARATORPatients will be treated with investigator's choice of chemotherapy
BIBW 2992 and Paclitaxel
EXPERIMENTALPatients will be treated with BIBW 2992daily with a medium dose and weekly administration of Paclitaxel at a dose of 80 mg/m2
Interventions
BIBW 2992 in a medium dose in combination with Paclitaxel to explore safety and efficacy versus investigator´s choice of chemotherapy
BIBW 2992 will be given in a medium dose in combination with Paclitaxel to explore safety and efficacy versus investigator´s choice of chemotherapy
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Part A
- Patients with pathologically confirmed diagnosis of NSCLC Stage IIIB (with cytologically proven pleural effusion or pericardial effusion) or Stage IV who have failed treatment with erlotinib (Tarceva) or gefitinib (Iressa).
- Patients should have received and failed at least one line of cytotoxic chemotherapy including a platinum-based regimen in patients eligible for platinum-based therapy and pemetrexed in pemetrexed eligible patients (unless pemetrexed is not considered a regulatory or clinical standard of care e.g. no label indication, no availability or no coverage by 3rd party payer(s)) for advanced or metastatic disease and have progressive disease following at least 12 weeks of treatment with erlotinib or gefitinib
- Patients pretreated with taxane-based chemotherapy for advanced or metastatic disease must have experienced stable disease, partial or complete response as best response
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance Score 0 or 1.
- Patients with at least one tumor lesion that can accurately be measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), or computed tomography (CT) in at least one dimension with longest diameter to be recorded as 10 mm but no less than double the slice thickness according to RESIST 1.1.
- Male and female patients no less than 18 years of age.
- Life expectancy of at least three (3) months.
- Written informed consent that is consistent with ICH-GCP guidelines. Part B 1) Clinical benefit (disease stabilization or antitumor response) of 12 weeks duration in Part A of the trial determined on the second tumour assessment.
- ) Patients should have progressed in Part A according to RECIST 1.1 3.) New informed consent, including consent to biomarker sampling, must be signed before patients enter Part B of the trial
You may not qualify if:
- Previous treatment with BIBW 2992
- Chemo-, hormone- (other than megestrol acetate, steroids required for maintenance non-cancer therapy or as premedication before chemotherapy) or immunotherapy within the past 4 weeks; except for TKI pretreatment (2 weeks only)
- Active/symptomatic brain metastases including leptomeningeal disease. Patients with a history of treated brain metastasis must have a stable or normal brain MRT/CT scan at screening and be at least 4 weeks post-radiation or surgery for brain metastasis. Dexamethasone therapy will be allowed if administered as a stable dose for at least one month before randomization.
- Significant or recent acute gastrointestinal disorders with diarrhea as a major symptom e.g., Crohn's disease, mal-absorption, or CTCAE Grade \>2 diarrhea of any etiology at baseline
- Patients who have any other life-threatening illness or organ system dysfunction, which in the opinion of the Investigator, would either compromise patient safety or interfere with the evaluation of the safety of the test drug
- Other malignancies diagnosed within the past five (5) years (other than non-melanomatous skin cancer and in situ cervical cancer)
- Radiotherapy within the past 2 weeks prior to treatment with the trial drug
- History or presence of clinically relevant cardiovascular abnormalities such as uncontrolled hypertension, congestive heart failure New york Heart Association (NYHA) functional classification of 3, unstable angina, or poorly controlled arrhythmia. Myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to entering the trial.
- Cardiac left ventricular function with resting ejection fraction of less than 50% measured by multigated blood pool imaging of the heart (MUGA scan) or echocardiogram .
- Prior treatment with anthracyclines with a cumulative dose of doxorubicin (or equivalent) at or greater than 400 mg/m2
- Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) at or less than 1500 / mm3
- Platelet count at or less than 100,000 / mm3
- Bilirubin at or greater than 1.5 mg / dL (\>26 mol / L, SI unit equivalent)
- Aspartate amino transferase (AST) or alanine amino transferase (ALT) at or greater than three times the upper limit of normal (if related to liver metastases at or greater than five times the upper limit of normal)
- Serum creatinine at or greater 1.5 times the upper normal limit or calculated/measured creatinine clearance at or less than 45 mL/min
- +8 more criteria
