Bavituximab Plus Carbo and Pemetrexed in Chemo-Naive Stage IV Non-Squamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) Subjects

This is a non-randomized, open-label Phase 1b trial to establish the safety and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of bavituximab in combination with pemetrexed and carboplatin in subjects with previously untreated stage IV non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

About this study

Subjects with measurable disease will be assessed for response after every 2 cycles of therapy using RECIST 1.1 criteria. In addition, progression free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and exploratory biomarkers, imaging, and thrombotic risk parameters will be evaluated.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Greater than or equal to 18
  • Histologically or cytologically confirmed stage IV non-squamous NSCLC not previously treated with systemic chemotherapy
  • Evaluable disease by clinical or radiographic parameters
  • No history or concomitant malignancy
  • Adequate organ and marrow function
  • Female subjects with negative urine or serum pregnancy
  • ECOG must be 0 or 1

Exclusion criteria

  • Squamous cell, small cell, or mixed histology
  • Known history of bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy
  • Cavitary tumors or tumors invading or abutting large blood vessels
  • Any history of thromboembolic events
  • Ongoing therapy with oral or parenteral anticoagulants
  • Major surgery within 4 weeks of Day 1 of treatment
  • Uncontrolled intercurrent disease (diabetes, hypertension, thyroid disease)
  • any history of significant vascular disease
  • Congestive heart failure
  • History of any condition requiring anti-platelet therapy
  • Serious non healing wound
  • Known chronic infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or viral hepatitis
  • Unable or unwilling to discontinue use of prohibited medications
  • D-dimers >2 x ULN as measured on 2 separate occasions at least 1 day apart

Treatment and study plan

bavituximab

Drug

Administered 3 mg/kg weekly

Other names: chimeric 3G4

Primary outcomes

  1. Measure number of severe side effects seen during first cycle of therapy

    Time frame: Three weeks

    To determine the maximum tolerated dose based on occurrence of dose-limititing toxicity (DLT) within the first 3 weeks of treatment to determine appropriate and safe dose of bavituximab in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed

Secondary outcomes

  1. Progression free survival

    Time frame: At the time from the start of treatment until documented disease as defined bia RECIST 1.1 or death

    to determine the overall response rate and estimate progression free survival associated with bavituximab in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed
