Brief Summary

This is an open-label, single-arm, multi-center, phase 2 Study to evaluate SHR-1210(anti-PD-1 antibody) in in adult Chinese patients with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer who failed or progressed to prior first-line systemic treatment.

Enrolled subjects will be assigned to 4 cohorts on the basis of PD-L1 expression in tumor cells(\<1%, ≥1%-25%, ≥25%-50%, ≥50%) all will be treated with the standard SHR-1210 dose (200mg) , Q2W, until documented progressive disease (PD) occurs. Subjects will return to the clinic once every two weeks. Radiographic disease assessments will be performed every 6 weeks.

The primary study hypothesis is that treatment with SHR-1210 improves Objective Response Rate when compare with standard second-line therapy, no matter how much PD-L1 expression in tumor.

Detailed Description

In similar clinical trials, anti-PD-1 and anti-PD-L1 antibodies produce durable responses in approximately 20% of unselected patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer. Developing reliable, validated biomarkers that identify patients with an increased probability of response to these antibodies remains a challenge.

Because the PD-1 pathway may be a key mechanism of immune escape in a subgroup of patients with non-small-cell lung cancer, PD-L1 expression in tumor or inflammatory cells is a candidate biomarker. However, PD-L1 expression has not been formally validated as a biomarker in contemporaneously collected tumor tissue.

Additionally the purpose of the study is to assess the correlation between the expression of PD-L1 in the tumor and the response to treatment with SHR-1210 in non-small cell lung cancer.

Subjects with histologically- or cytologically- documented NSCLC who present with Stage IIIB-IV disease (according to version 7 of the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer Staging Manual in Thoracic Oncology), or disease recurrence or progression following multi-modal therapy (radiation therapy, surgical resection or radical chemo-radiotherapy in locally advanced disease).

2. Fresh cutting specimens or hollow needle aspiration specimens must be provided. A formalin fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor tissue block or unstained slides of tumor sample (must be recent) must be available for biomarker evaluation. In the case of unstained slides, a minimum of 8 slides are necessary to conduct the planned biomarker analyses. Specimens must be received by the central lab prior to randomization.

   1. Subjects who received maintenance therapy (non-progressors with platinum-based doublet chemotherapy) and progressed are eligible.

   4. Total bilirubin (TBIL) ≤ 1.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN)
   5. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 2.5 × upper limit of normal(ULN); for subjects with liver metastases, ALT and AST ≤ 5 × ULN
   6. Serum creatinine ≤1.5 × ULN or creatinine clearance > 45 mL/minute (using Cockcroft/Gault formula)

8. Female participants of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within -7 days of randomization and must be willing to use very efficient barrier methods of contraception or a barrier method plus a hormonal method starting with the screening visit through 60 days (about 5 drug half-life + menstrual cycle) after the last dose of SHR-1210. Male participants with a female partner(s) of child-bearing potential must be willing to use very efficient barrier methods of contraception from screening through 120 days (about 5 drug half-life + sperm depletion cycle) after the last dose of SHR-1210.

9. Subjects must be willing and able to comply with scheduled visits, treatment schedule, laboratory tests including completion of patient reported outcomes questionnaires and other requirements of the study.
