Phase II Anetumab Ravtansine as 2nd Line Treatment for Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma (MPM)

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Mesothelioma
Interventions
Drug: Anetumab ravtansine (BAY94-9343)
Registration Number
NCT02610140
Lead Sponsor
Bayer
Brief Summary

The main purpose of the 15743 study is to assess efficacy and safety of anetumab ravtansine versus vinorelbine in progression free survival in patients with stage IV mesothelin overexpressing malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM).

210 eligible patients will be randomized to receive either anetumab ravtansine every three weeks or weekly vinorelbine.

Treatment will continue until centrally confirmed disease progression or until another criterion is met for withdrawal from the study. Patients will enter follow up phase to capture safety and endpoint data as required.

Efficacy will be measured by evaluating progression free survival from randomization. Radiological tumor assessments will be performed at defined time points until the patient's disease progresses.

Blood samples will be collected for safety, pharmacokinetic and biomarker analysis. Archival or fresh biopsy tissue may also be collected for central pathology review and biomarkers.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Progression-free Survival (PFS), [95% CI]From randomization till approximately 117 PFS events observed, up to approx. 30 months (data cut-off: 31-May-2017)

Progression-free survival (PFS), defined as time from randomization until disease progression according to mRECIST (Modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors) for Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) per blinded central radiology review, or death. Only descriptive analysis of OS was repeated in the follow-up period.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Overall Survival (OS), [95% CI]Up to approx. 40 months (data cut-off: 06-Apr-2018) - Time from randomization until death from any cause; one-sided log-rank test stratified by time to progression (TTP) on first line treatment.

Overall survival (OS) was defined as time from randomization until death from any cause.

Objective Response Rate (ORR)up to approx. 30 months (data cut-off: 31-May-2017) - Time from randomization until death from any cause.

A patient is a responder if the patient has a confirmed best tumor response on-study of CR (Complete response) or PR (Partial response), as determined by the central radiological reviewer per mRECIST criteria. ORR in each treatment arm was defined as the number of responders divided by the number of randomized patients. A responder was a patient who had a confirmed best tumor response on-study of CR or PR, as determined by the central radiological reviewer per mRECIST criteria.

Disease Control Rate (DCR)Up to approx. 40 months (data cut-off: 06-Apr-2018) - Time from randomization until death from any cause.

A patient has disease control if the patient has a best tumor response on-study of CR, PR, or SD (Stable disease). DCR was defined as a percentage of patients achieving CR, PR, or SD per mRECIST criteria, as determined by the central radiological reviewer. DCR was calculated in each treatment arm as the number of patients with disease control (a best tumor response on-study of CR, PR, or SD) divided by the number of randomized patients.

Duration of Response (DOR)Up to approx. 40 months (data cut-off: 06-Apr-2018) - Time from randomization until death from any cause.

DOR was defined in responders as the time from central documentation of tumor response date of first response in the confirmation sequence) to the earlier of disease progression as determined by the central radiological reviewer, or death without centrally documented progression. A responder was a patient who had a confirmed best tumor response on-study of CR or PR, as determined by the central radiological reviewer per mRECIST criteria.

Durable Response Rate (DRR)Up to approx. 40 months (data cut-off: 06-Apr-2018) - Time from randomization until death from any cause.

A durable responder was a responder (i.e. confirmed best tumor response on study of CR or PR) with duration of response of 180 days or more.

Percentage of Participants With Confirmed Improvement of Symptoms Characteristic of Mesotheliomaup to approx. 30 months (data cut-off: 31-May-2017)

Improvement rate of symptoms characteristic of mesothelioma was defined as the number of patients with confirmed improvement of symptoms characteristic of mesothelioma (based on the MD Anderson Symptom Inventory-Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma, MDASI-MPM), divided by the number of patients evaluable for improvement of symptoms characteristic of mesothelioma.

Time to Worsening of Symptoms Characteristic of Mesotheliomaup to approx. 30 months (data cut-off: 31-May-2017)

Time to worsening of symptoms characteristic of mesothelioma (TTWS) was defined in patients evaluable for assessing worsening of symptoms, as the time from randomization until the first worsening of symptoms characteristic of mesothelioma. Patients who died, were lost to follow-up, or ended (MD Anderson Symptom Inventory-Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma) MDASI-MPM assessments without confirmed worsening of symptoms were censored at the date of their last MDASI-MPM assessment with a non-missing (Composite Symptom Score) CSS.

Time to Worsening of Painup to approx. 30 months (data cut-off: 31-May-2017)

Time to worsening of pain (TTWP) was defined in patients evaluable for assessing worsening of pain, as time from randomization until the first worsening of pain. Patients who died, were lost to follow-up, or ended (MD Anderson Symptom Inventory-Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma) MDASI-MPM assessments without confirmed worsening of pain were censored at the date of their last MDASI-MPM assessment with a non-missing pain score.

Percentage of Participants With Confirmed Improvement of PainUp to approx. 40 months (data cut-off: 06-Apr-2018) - Time from randomization until death from any cause.

Improvement rate of pain was defined as the number of patients with confirmed improvement of pain (based on the "pain at its worst" item of MDASI-MPM), divided by the number of patients evaluable for improvement of pain.

Percentage of Participant With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)Up to approx. 55 months (data cut-off: 02-Jul-2019) - Time from randomization until 30 days after last treatment (general AEs), or further until death from any cause (selected AEs).

TEAEs were defined as all AEs starting or worsening within the treatment period.

Number of DeathsUp to approx. 40 months (data cut-off: 06-Apr-2018) - Time from randomization until death from any cause.

TEAE(s) associated with a fatal outcome (CTCAE Grade 5) at the time of the data cut-off 06-Apr-2018.

Overall Survival (OS) - AddendumUp to approx. 55 month (data cut-off: 02-JUL-2019) - Time from randomization until death from any cause

Overall survival (OS) was defined as time from randomization until death from any cause; Only descriptive analyses of OS were repeated in with the data as of the 02 JUL 2019.
