Brief Summary

This study was a phase III, multicenter, randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled study evaluating the efficacy and safety of canakinumab versus placebo as adjuvant therapy in adult patients with stages AJCC/UICC v. 8 II-IIIA and IIIB completely resected NSCLC. As a result of this study, canakinumab did not prolong DFS compared to placebo. No new safety signals or unexpected safety findings were observed in the patients treated with canakinumab.

Inclusion Criteria

Have completely resected (R0) NSCLC AJCC/UICC v. 8 stage IIA-IIIA and IIIB (N2 disease only) OR have NSCLC Stage IIA-IIIA, IIIB (N2 disease only) and are candidates for complete resection surgery
- Cisplatin-based chemotherapy is mandatory for all subjects (Exception: In subjects with stage IIA disease with no nodal involvement, cisplatin-based chemotherapy can be administered if recommended by the treating physician). When required, a minimum of two cycles of cisplatin-based chemotherapy is mandatory, after which additional therapies can be given based upon local clinical practice and/or guidelines. Typically, chemotherapy is initiated within 60 days of surgery.
- Must have recovered from all toxicities related to prior systemic therapy to grade =< 1 (CTCAE v 4.03). Exception to this criterion: subjects with any grade of alopecia and grade 2 or less neuropathy are allowed to enter the study
- Have ECOG performance status (PS) of 0 or 1

Exclusion Criteria

- Have unresectable or metastatic disease, positive microscopic margins on the pathology report, and/or gross disease remaining at the time of surgery
- Have received any neoadjuvant therapy
- Presence or history of a malignant disease, other than the resected NSCLC, that has been diagnosed and/or required therapy within the past 3 years Exceptions to this exclusion include the following: completely resected basal cell and squamous cell skin cancers, completely resected carcinoma in situ of any type and hormonal maintenance for breast and prostate cancer > 3 years.
- Have a history of current diagnosis of cardiac disease
- Have uncontrolled diabetes
- Have known active or recurrent hepatic disorder including cirrhosis, hepatitis B and C (positive or indeterminate central laboratory results)
- Subjects must be evaluated for tuberculosis as per local treatment guidelines or clinical practice. Subjects with active tuberculosis are not eligible.
