Phase I Study of the Combination of Afatinib and Ruxolitinib in Patients With Treatment-refractory Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)
- Registration Number
- NCT02145637
- Lead Sponsor
- Yonsei University
- Brief Summary
This phase Ib study will investigate dose limiting toxicity (DLT) and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of afatinib and ruxolitinib combination therapy, based on the preclinical data that inhibition of IL-6R/JAK1 signal transmission pathway will increase sensitivity to afatinib.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method To set a recommended phase II dose (RP2D) 36 days We will set a recommended phase II dose (RP2D) using conventional 3+3 deisgn.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Safety and tolerability (dose relating toxicity; DLT) 1year Adverse events (AEs) will be assessed according to NCI common toxicity criteria (CTC) version 4.03.
Overall survival (OS) 1year OS will be defined as the start of the treatment to the date of death due to any cause.
Progression free survival (PFS) 1year PFS will be defined as the start of the treatment to the first occurrence of progression, relapse, or death from any cause as assessed by the investigator.
Pharmacodynamic biomarker 1year The biomarkers marker related with EGFR and JAK/STAT pathway as well as gene analysis, using peripheral blood mononuclear cell(PBMC), circulating tumor cell (CTC) and skin and tumor tissue sample will be analyzed.
Overall response rate (ORR) 1year Response and progression will be evaluated in this study using modified international criteria proposed by the revised Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) guideline (version 1.1)
