Overview
Brief Summary
This is a multi-center open-label proof-of-concept study consisting of two parts: PART A - a phase I dose-finding study (3 + 3 classical design) evaluating the RP2D of afatinib in combination with selumetinib in KRASm NSCLC; and PART B - a randomized phase II study investigating the progression free survival and safety of selumetinib/afatinib combination therapy compared to standard of care chemotherapy in KRASm NSCLC.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Dose Limiting Toxicities (Phase I)
Time Frame: Cycle 1 (4 weeks)
Incidence of DLTs in the first treatment cycle
Progression Free Survival (Phase II)
Time Frame: CT scan every 6 weeks and monthly phone call until start of subsequent anticancer therapy or until all patients have been followed up for at least 18 months of have been lost to follow up, whichever occurs first
PFS measured by RECIST v 1.1
Secondary Outcomes
- Tolerability (Incidence and severity of adverse events per CTCAE v4.03)(Up to 28 days after last study drug intake)
- Plasma concentrations of afatanib and selumetinib(On day 1, 2, 4, 8, 15, 22 in cycle 1, on day 1 and 2 in cycle 2 and subsequently at every treatment cycle pre-dose)
- Efficacy (Phase II) (Overall response rate (ORR), duration of response (DOR) , time to response (TTR) and overall survival (OS) per RECIST v1.1)(Assessed by CT scans every 6 weeks and by monthly phone call until all patients have been followed up for at least 18 months or have been lost to follow up, whichever occurs first.)
