Placebo-controlled Study Comparing Niraparib Plus Pembrolizumab Versus Placebo Plus Pembrolizumab as Maintenance Therapy in Participants With Advanced/Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
ZEAL-1L
A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Multicenter Study Comparing Niraparib Plus Pembrolizumab Versus Placebo Plus Pembrolizumab as Maintenance Therapy in Participants Whose Disease Has Remained Stable or Responded to First-Line Platinum -Based Chemotherapy With Pembrolizumab for Stage IIIB/IIIC or IV Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (ZEAL-1L)

Brief Summary
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of niraparib plus pembrolizumab versus placebo plus pembrolizumab as maintenance therapy in participants with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have achieved stable disease (SD), partial response (PR), or complete response (CR) following completion of standard of care first-line (SoC 1L) platinum-based induction chemotherapy with pembrolizumab. The primary hypotheses are: participants with confirmed diagnosis of NSCLC could benefit from niraparib plus pembrolizumab versus placebo plus pembrolizumab with respect to Progression-free survival (PFS) and Overall survival (OS).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Progression-free Survival (PFS) Assessed by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR) - Complete and Partial Response (CR/PR) Population
PFS is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of first objectively documented disease progression (PD) as determined by blinded independent central review (BICR) using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) or death from any cause in the absence of progression, whichever occurs first. PD is defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study).
Up to 52 months
Secondary Outcomes (13)
Progression-free Survival (PFS) Assessed by BICR - Intent-to-Treat (ITT) Population
Up to 52 months
Overall Survival (OS) - CR/PR Population
Up to 52 months
Overall Survival (OS) - ITT Population
Up to 52 months
Time to Progression (TTP) in the Central Nervous System (CNS) Assessed by BICR Using RANO-BM Criteria
At Month 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42 and 48
Progression-free Survival (PFS) as Assessed by the Investigator Using RECIST v1.1

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Participant must be \>=18 years of age.
- Has a histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of NSCLC without known targetable driver alteration (either non-squamous or squamous histology; mixed histology is allowed for which an approved targeted therapy is available in the 1L induction/maintenance therapy setting).
- Has advanced (Stage IIIB or Stage IIIC, not amenable to definitive chemoradiotherapy) or metastatic (Stage IV) or metastatic (Stage IV) NSCLC.
- Has completed at least 4 but no more than 6 cycles of SoC 1L platinum-based induction chemotherapy with pembrolizumab.
- Has SD, PR, or CR of the NSCLC per Investigator's assessment after completion of 4 to 6 cycles of SoC 1L platinum-based induction chemotherapy with pembrolizumab.
- Has an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1.
- Has a life expectancy of at least 12 weeks.
- Has adequate organ and bone marrow function.
- Must submit tumor specimens.
- Must be able to swallow and retain orally administered study treatment.
- A female is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant or breastfeeding and must follow contraceptive guidance during the treatment period and 180 days afterwards.
- A male is eligible to participate if he agrees to contraceptive guidance and refrains from sperm donation during the intervention period and for at least 90 days after the last dose of study treatment.
- Is able to understand the study procedures and agrees to participate in the study by providing written informed consent. Participants must be informed that their participation is voluntary. Participants will be required to sign a statement of informed consent to participate in the study.
You may not qualify if:
- Has mixed small cell lung cancer or sarcomatoid variant NSCLC.
- Has received prior Poly (adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor(s) in prior lines of treatment.
- Has systolic blood pressure (BP) \>140 millimeters of mercury (mmHg) or diastolic BP \>90 mmHg.
- Has any clinically significant gastrointestinal abnormalities that may alter absorption such as malabsorption syndrome or major resection of the stomach and/or bowels.
- Has leptomeningeal disease, carcinomatous meningitis, symptomatic brain metastases, or radiographic signs of CNS hemorrhage.
- Has received colony-stimulating factors (granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor or recombinant erythropoietin) within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of study treatment.
- Has an active or previously documented autoimmune or inflammatory disorder.
- Is receiving chronic systemic steroids (prednisone \>20 mg per day) other than intermittent use of bronchodilators, inhaled steroids, or local steroid.
- Has other active concomitant malignancy that warrants systemic, biologic, or hormonal therapy.
- Is pregnant, breastfeeding, or expecting to conceive children while receiving study treatment and/or for up to 180 days after the last dose of study treatment.
- Has a known history of Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or Acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
- Has a known history of active tuberculosis.
- Has current active pneumonitis within 90 days of planned start of the study or a known history of interstitial lung disease, drug-related pneumonitis, or radiation pneumonitis requiring steroid treatment.

Data Sharing
- IPD Sharing
- Will share
- Shared Documents
- STUDY PROTOCOL, SAP, ICF, CSR
- Time Frame
- Anonymized IPD will be made available within 6 months of publication of primary, key secondary and safety results for studies in product with approved indication(s) or terminated asset(s) across all indications.
- Access Criteria
- Anonymized IPD is shared with researchers whose proposals are approved by an Independent Review Panel and after a Data Sharing Agreement is in place. Access is provided for an initial period of 12 months but an extension may be granted, when justified, for up to 6 months.
Qualified researchers may request access to anonymized individual patient-level data (IPD) and related study documents of the eligible studies via the Data Sharing Portal. Details on GSK's data sharing criteria can be found at: https://www.gsk.com/en-gb/innovation/trials/data-transparency/
