Zelenectide Pevedotin in NECTIN4 Amplified Advanced or Metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

This is a global, multicenter, open-label study that aims to assess the efficacy and safety of zelenectide pevedotin in participants with previously treated NECTIN4-amplified advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have received at least one prior line of systemic therapy in the advanced/metastatic setting (see inclusion criteria below). The study will comprise of 2 cohorts: Cohort A (non-squamous NSCLC) and Cohort B (squamous NSCLC).

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

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

Key Inclusion Criteria

  • Histologically or cytologically confirmed advanced or metastatic NSCLC.
  • Cohort A: Histologically or cytologically confirmed non-squamous NSCLC.
  • Cohort B: Histologically or cytologically confirmed squamous NSCLC.
  • Confirmed NECTIN4 gene amplification by an analytically validated clinical trial assay.
  • Participants must have received at least 1 prior line of systemic therapy in the advanced/metastatic setting.
  • Participants with no known actionable genomic alterations must have received both platinum based therapy and immunotherapy given either sequentially or in combination for advanced/metastatic NSCLC. Must not have received more than 3 prior lines of systemic therapy in the advanced/metastatic setting.
  • Participants with known actionable genomic alterations (eg, EGFR, ALK, BRAF, MET, ROS1, NTRK1/2/3, RET, etc.) are eligible provided they have received or are not candidates for available standard targeted therapy in the advanced/metastatic setting.
  • Measurable disease as defined by RECIST v1.1.
  • Adequate archival or fresh tumor tissue comprised of advanced or metastatic NSCLC should be available for submission to central laboratory, if not provided during prescreening.
  • Life expectancy ≥ 12 weeks.
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status of ≤ 1.

Key Exclusion Criteria

  • Evidence of mixed small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and NSCLC histology.
  • Prior treatment with monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE) (vedotin) based therapy.
  • Known hypersensitivity or allergy to any of the ingredients of any of the study interventions, or to MMAE.
  • Ongoing clinically significant toxicity (Grade ≥ 2) associated with prior treatment for NSCLC (including radiotherapy or surgery), with the exception of well-controlled immuno-oncology related endocrine disorders on supportive or replacement therapy, and alopecia. (Note: Immunosuppressive therapies should be stopped or tapered down to ≤10 mg/day prednisone or equivalent before first study drug administration.)
  • Active keratitis or corneal ulcerations.
  • Active or untreated central nervous system (CNS) metastases.
  • Uncontrolled diabetes or hypertension.
  • Uncontrolled pleural effusion, pericardial effusion, or ascites requiring recurrent draining procedures (monthly or more frequently).
  • Active interstitial lung disease or pneumonitis requiring ongoing treatment with steroids (>10mg/day of prednisone or equivalent) or other immunosuppressive medications; or any prior history of ILD or non-infectious pneumonitis requiring high-dose glucocorticoids.
  • History of another active malignancy, except adequately resected non-melanoma skin cancer, curatively treated in situ disease, or other malignancies curatively treated with no evidence of disease for ≥3 years.
  • Known requirement, while on study, for treatment with strong inhibitors or strong inducers of human cytochrome P450 3A ([cytochrome P450 3A] CYP3A) including herbal- or food-based inhibitors/inducers.
  • Prior treatment with any systemic anticancer therapy within 28 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is shorter, prior to first dose of study treatment.

Note: Additional protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria apply

Treatment and study plan

Zelenectide pevedotin

Drug

Participants will receive zelenectide pevedotin on Days 1, and 8 of every 21-day cycle.

Other names: BT8009

Primary outcomes

  1. Objective response rate (ORR) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) assessed by Investigator

    Time frame: Up to approximately 3 years

    Percentage of participants with either a confirmed complete response (CR) or partial response (PR)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Number of participants reporting adverse events (AEs) and abnormalities in laboratory, electrocardiogram (ECG) and vital signs

    Time frame: Up to approximately 3 years

    Safety will be reported as incidence, severity, seriousness, relationship to study treatment, and types of adverse events using National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) v5.0 criteria.

  2. Duration of Response (DOR) per RECIST v1.1 assessed by the Investigator

    Time frame: Up to approximately 3 years

    DoR as measured by the time from first documentation of disease progression per RECIST v1.1 or to death (due to any cause), whichever occurs first.

  3. Disease Control Rate (DCR) per RECIST v1.1 assessed by the Investigator

    Time frame: Up to approximately 3 years

    Percentage of participants with confirmed CR, PR, or stable disease (SD)

  4. Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR) per RECIST v1.1 assessed by the Investigator

    Time frame: Up to approximately 3 years

    Percentage of participants with CR, PR or SD ≥16 weeks

  5. Progression Free Survival (PFS) per RECIST v1.1 assessed by the Investigator

    Time frame: Up to approximately 3 years

    PFS is measured by the time from the first day of study drug administration (Day 1) to the first documentation of disease progression, or to death (due to any cause), whichever occurs first.

  6. Overall Survival (OS)

    Time frame: Up to approximately 3 years

    OS is defined as length of time from the first day of study drug administration (Day 1) to death (due to any cause).

  7. Time to Progression (TTP) per RECIST v1.1 assessed by the Investigator

    Time frame: Up to approximately 3 years

    TTP is defined as the time from first dose of study drug administration until first documentation of disease progression
