Brief Summary

This randomized, multicenter, Phase III, open-label study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of SAF-189s versus crizotinib treatment in participants with treatment-naive ALK-positive advanced NSCLC. Participants will be randomized 1:1 into one of the two treatment groups to receive either SAF-189s (160 milligrams \[mg\] once daily \[QD\]) or crizotinib (250 mg BID) orally, respectively.

Conditions

Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer; ALK-positive; SAF-189s

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 18 Years+
• Sex: all
• Healthy Volunteers: No
• Age Groups: Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

• Male or female patients ≥ 18；
• Histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of local advanced (Stage IIIB/IIIC) or metastatic (Stage IV) NSCLC;
• ALK-positive as assessed by the Ventana immunohistochemistry (IHC) test. Sufficient tumor tissue available to perform ALK IHC is required. Ventana IHC testing will be performed at the designated central laboratory;
• Measurable disease by response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) version 1.1 (v1.1) prior to the administration of study treatment; Lesions that have received radiation therapy cannot be considered as target lesions unless there is confirmed progression of the lesion after radiation therapy;
• Participants with no prior systemic treatment for local advanced (Stage IIIB/IIIC not amenable for multimodality treatment) or metastatic (Stage IV) NSCLC;
• Eastern cooperative oncology group performance status (ECOG PS) of 0-2;
• Life expectancy of at least 12 weeks;
• Adequate organ and bone marrow function as documented by:Hematologic function: absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1.5 × 10\^9/L; hemoglobin≥ 90 g/L; Platelet count ≥ 100 × 109/L;Serum total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × ULN (if the patient has Gilbert's syndrome, ≤ 3 × ULN and direct bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × ULN);Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine transaminase (ALT) ≤ 2.5 × ULN (≤ 5 × ULN for patient with liver metastases);Creatinine clearance (CrCL) ≥ 50 mL/min (calculated by Cockcroft-Gault equation)；Baseline QTc ≤470 ms corrected by Fridericia fomula;Baseline LVEF≥50%;
• For all females of childbearing potential (FCBP), a negative serum pregnancy test result must be obtained within 7 days prior to starting study treatment, and agree to use a highly effective method of contraception, during the treatment period and for 3 months following the last dose of study drug.For men whose partners are fertile women, agreement to remain abstinent or use a condom plus an additional contraceptive method during the treatment period and for at least 3 months after the last dose of study drug. Abstinence is acceptable only if it is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the participant. Periodic abstinence (e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, or postovulation methods) and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception. This protocol defines a FCBP as a sexually mature woman who:1）has not undergone a hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy；2）has not been naturally postmenopausal (amenorrhea following cancer therapy does not rule out child-bearing potential) for at least 24 consecutive months (i.e., has had menses at any time in the preceding 24 consecutive months).

• Patients with central nervous system (CNS) metastases requiring: 1）clinical local intervention such as surgical excision, radiotherapy or other therapies (known brain metastasis or other CNS metastasis that is either asymptomatic or symptomatic but requiring no local interventions may qualify for the study per the investigator); 2）patients requiring systemic treatment with corticosteroids and \>10 mg/day prednisone or equivalent; 3）requiring antiepileptic drug sustained treatment;
• Spinal cord meatstasis with potential risk of or symptomic spinal cord compression;

• History of hypersensitivity to any of the additives in the crizotinib and drug formulation;

• Patients have other malignant tumor history in 3 years or with other malignant tumors simultaneously (excluding curatively treated in situ carcinoma of cervix cancer, non-melanoma skin basal cell carcinoma, thyroid carcinoma in situ, and any cured tumor which is considered to have no impact in progression-free survival (PFS) or overall survival (OS) for the current NSCLC);
• Patients with cardiac function impairment or clinically significant heart diseases, including congestive heart-failure New York Heart Association (NYHA) III or above, arrhythmias (including but not limited to complete left bundle branch Atrioventricular block complete and atrioventricular block second degree), conduction abnormality requiring medication, severe coronary artery disease, heart valve disease or myocardiopathy or uncontrolled hypertension;
