Durvalumab and Tremelimumab in Treating Patients With Recurrent Stage IV Lung Cancer

Phase 2

Completed

Conditions: Stage IV Squamous Cell Lung Carcinoma AJCC v7
Recurrent Squamous Cell Lung Carcinoma

Registration Number: NCT03373760

Lead Sponsor: SWOG Cancer Research Network

Brief Summary: This phase II trial studies how well durvalumab and tremelimumab works in treating patients with stage IV lung cancer that has come back after previous treatment. Monoclonal antibodies, such as durvalumab and tremelimumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.

Detailed Description: PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate the objective response rate (confirmed and unconfirmed, complete and partial) by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 among patients treated with durvalumab (MEDI4736) plus tremelimumab.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To estimate the duration of response (DoR) among patients who achieve a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) (confirmed and unconfirmed) by RECIST 1.1.

II. To estimate the duration of response (DoR) per immune-related response criteria among patients who achieve a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) (confirmed and unconfirmed) by RECIST 1.1.

III. To evaluate overall survival (OS) among patients treated with durvalumab (MEDI4736) plus tremelimumab.

IV. To evaluate investigator-assessed progression-free survival (IA-PFS) among patients treated with durvalumab (MEDI4736) plus tremelimumab.

V. To evaluate IA-PFS assessed by immune-related response criteria (irRC-IA-PFS) among patients treated with durvalumab (MEDI4736) plus tremelimumab.

VI. To evaluate the frequency and severity of toxicities associated with durvalumab (MEDI4736) plus tremelimumab.

TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To explore the association of potential predictive markers identified in S1400A, with response and progression-free survival (PFS).

II. To explore the association of PD-L1 expression status with response and PFS.

III. To contribute to an ongoing serum and tumor bank in S1400.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive tremelimumab intravenously (IV) over 60 minutes on day 1 for courses 1-4 and durvalumab IV over 60 minutes on day 1. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 6 months for 2 years, and then at the end of year 3.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Objective Response Rate	From date of registration to progression or treatment discontinuation, up to 2 years and 5.5 months.	Percentage of participants with confirmed or unconfirmed, complete or partial response to treatment with MEDI4736 (durvalumab) plus tremelimumab per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST 1.1). Complete Response (CR): Complete disappearance of all target and non-target lesions. No new lesions. No disease related symptoms. Any lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to \< 1.0 cm. All disease must be assessed using the same technique as baseline. Partial Response (PR): Applies only to patients with at least one measurable lesion. Greater than or equal to 30% decrease under baseline of the sum of appropriate diameters of all target measurable lesions. No unequivocal progression of non-measurable disease. No new lesions. All target measurable lesions must be assessed using the same techniques as baseline.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Duration of Response (DoR) Among Patients Who Achieve a Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) (Confirmed and Unconfirmed) by RECIST 1.1.	From date of registration to maximum of 2 years and 5.5 months or death.	Time from date of first documentation of response (CR or PR) to date of first documentation of progression assessed by local review or symptomatic deterioration, or death from any cause among patients who achieve a response. Patients last known to be alive without report of progression are censored at date of last disease assessment. For patients with a missing scan (or consecutive missing scans) whose subsequent scan determines progression, the expected date of the first missing scan will be used as the date of progression. Progression is defined as one or more of the following: 20% increase in the sum of appropriate diameters of target measurable lesions over smallest sum observed and an absolute increase of at least 0.5 cm; Unequivocal progression of non-measurable disease in the opinion of the treating physician (explanation must be provided); Appearance of any new lesion/site; Death due to disease without prior documentation of progression and without symptomatic deterioration
Duration of Response (DoR) Per Immune-related Response Criteria Among Patients Who Achieve a Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) (Confirmed and Unconfirmed) by RECIST 1.1	From date of registration to maximum of 2 years and 5.5 months or death	Time from date of first documentation of response (CR or PR) to date of first documentation of irRC-progression assessed by local review or symptomatic deterioration, or death due to any cause. Patients last known to be alive without report of irRC-progression are censored at date of last disease assessment. For patients with a missing scan (or consecutive missing scans) whose subsequent scan(s) determine irRC-progression, the date of irRCprogression will be the expected date of the first missing scan (as defined by the disease assessment schedule) or the date of the first scan documenting potential irRC-progression, whichever is earliest.
Overall Survival (OS) Among Patients Treated With MEDI4736 (Durvalumab) Plus Tremelimumab	Date of registration to maximum of 2 years and 5.5 months or death.	Time from date of sub-study registration to date of death due to any cause. Patients last known to be alive are censored at date of last contact.
Number of Participants With Gr 3 Through 5 Adverse Events That Are Related to Study Drugs	Duration of treatment and follow up until death or 2 years and 5.5 months post registration	Only adverse events that are possibly, probably or definitely related to study drug are reported. CTCAE Version 4.0 was used for routine toxicity reporting and CTCAE Version 5.0 was used for reporting serious adverse events (SAEs).
Investigator-assessed Progression-free Survival (IA-PFS) Among Patients Treated With MEDI4736 (Durvalumab) Plus Tremelimumab.	From date of registration to maximum 2 years and 5.5 months or death.	Time from date of sub-study registration to date of first documentation of progression assessed by local review or symptomatic deterioration, or death due to any cause. Patients last known to be alive without report of progression are censored at date of last disease assessment. For patients with a missing scan (or consecutive missing scans) whose subsequent scan determines progression, the expected date of the first missing scan (as defined by the disease assessment schedule) was used as the date of progression. Progression is defined as one or more of the following: 20% increase in the sum of appropriate diameters of target measurable lesions over smallest sum observed and an absolute increase of at least 0.5 cm; Unequivocal progression of non-measurable disease in the opinion of the treating physician (an explanation must be provided); Appearance of any new lesion/site; Death due to disease without prior documentation of progression and without symptomatic deterioration.
Investigator-assessed Progression-free Survival (IA-PFS) Assessed by Immune-related Response Criteria (irRC-IA-PFS) Among Patients Treated With MEDI4736 (Durvalumab) Plus Tremelimumab	Date of registration to maximum of 2 years and 5.5 months or death	Time from date of sub-study registration to date of first documentation of progression assessed by local review or symptomatic deterioration, or death due to any cause. Patients last known to be alive without report of progression are censored at date of last disease assessment. For patients with a missing scan (or consecutive missing scans) whose subsequent scan determines progression, the expected date of the first missing scan (as defined by the disease assessment schedule) will be used as the date of progression. irRC-progression is defined by progression per RECIST 1.1 except that progression determined by appearance of new lesions or by a 20% increase in the sum of diameters must be confirmed by a second consecutive determination of progression at least 28 days from the date of initial documentation of progression.
