NCT01423760

Brief Summary

This is an open-label, common follow-up trial. Subjects who were enrolled in a Merck KGaA, EMD Serono or Merck Serono Japan sponsored trial with tecemotide (L-BLP25) were enrolled in this follow-up trial to continue their maintenance treatment with tecemotide (L-BLP25). Subjects were transferred once the feeder trial (EMR 63325-005 \[NCT00157209\], EMR 63325-006 \[NCT00157196\] and EMR 63325-008 \[NCT01094548\]) objectives were met. Subjects who received tecemotide (L-BLP25) in a feeder trial continued tecemotide (L-BLP25) treatment in this follow-up trial and have safety assessments performed as well as were observed for progressive disease (PD) and survival in 6- month intervals. Subjects who had not received tecemotide (L-BLP25) in feeder trials, or discontinued treatment were only observed for PD and survival in 6-month intervals and were not provided treatment with tecemotide (L-BLP25).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of Subjects With Adverse Events (AEs), Serious AEs, AEs Leading to Discontinuation and AEs Leading to Death

    An Adverse Event (AE) is defined as any new untoward medical occurrences/worsening of pre-existing medical condition without regard to possibility of causal relationship. A Serious AE is an AE that resulted in any of the following outcomes: death; life threatening; persistent/significant disability/incapacity; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; congenital anomaly/birth defect, AEs leading to discontinuation and AEs leading to death.

    Screening up to 42 days after last dose of study treatment with tecemotide (L-BLP25), assessed up to 3.6 years

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Overall Survival (OS)

    From randomization to death, assessed up to 3.6 years

Study Arms (2)

Tecemotide (L-BLP25)

Interventions

TecemotideBIOLOGICAL

Subjects who received tecemotide (L-BLP25) for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) or multiple myeloma in a feeder trial will continue to be treated with tecemotide (L-BLP25) and have safety assessments performed until the discontinuation criteria in the respective feeder trial protocol are met.

Also known as: L-BLP25
Tecemotide (L-BLP25)

Subjects who had not received tecemotide in the feeder study, or who had discontinued treatment with tecemotide (L-BLP25), will only be observed for progressive disease (PD) (if applicable) and survival in 6-month intervals and will not be provided treatment with tecemotide (L-BLP25).
