简要总结
This is a prospective, open-label, multi-site Phase II trial of pembrolizumab in combination with pemetrexed and cisplatin or carboplatin as neo-adjuvant therapy followed by surgery and adjuvant pembrolizumab in patients affected by resectable stage I-IIIa chemonaïve epithelioid/biphasic pleural mesothelioma.
详细描述
This is a prospective, open-label, multi-site Phase II trial of pembrolizumab in combination with pemetrexed and cisplatin or carboplatin as neo-adjuvant therapy followed by surgery and adjuvant pembrolizumab in patients affected by resectable stage I-IIIa chemonaïve epithelioid/biphasic pleural mesothelioma. The neoadjuvant systemic treatment will be based on three cycles of pembrolizumab 200 mg flat dose in combination with standard doses of cisplatin (75 mg/sm) or carboplatin (AUC 5) and pemetrexed (500 mg/sm) administered intra-venous every 3 weeks. The surgical intervention of pleurectomy/decortication will be planned to occur within 6 weeks after the completion of neoadjuvant treatment. The adjuvant systemic treatment will be based on 14 cycles of pembrolizumab 200 mg flat dose administered intra-venous every 3 weeks. Patients should be able to start pembrolizumab following surgery as soon as clinically feasible and within 10 weeks from surgery. All participating centers will enroll eligible patients and administer neoadjuvant and adjuvant systemic treatment. Thoracic surgery will be centralized in two reference centres (AOUPD PADOVA AND HUMANITAS CANCER CENTER). All eligible patients will undergo two multidisciplinary team discussions, before and after induction systemic treatment. The primary objective of this trial is to determine the pathological complete response rate of pembrolizumab in combination with standard doses of cisplatin or carboplatin and pemetrexed administered intra-venous every 3 weeks for three cycles. Pathological response will be centrally assessed by a blinded pathologist. Radiological and metabolic assessment through CT-scan and PET-CT will be performed at the baseline and at the end of neoadjuvant chemo-immunotherapy. Radiological CT-scan will be then performed every 9 weeks (+/- 1 week) during the adjuvant treatment. Further radiological follow-up after the end of study treatment (or for those patients with early treatment discontinuation without disease relapse) will be performed every 12 weeks until a two-year period from surgery, followed by every 18 weeks until the fifth year. Radiological response will be centrally assessed by a blinded radiologist. Adverse events will be monitored throughout the trial and graded in severity according to the guidelines outlined in the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0.

入排标准
入选标准
- •Male/female participants who are at least 18 years of age on the day of signing informed consent with histologically confirmed diagnosis of surgical resectable stage I-IIIA treatment-naïve epithelioid/biphasic pleural mesothelioma will be enrolled in this study.
- •Diagnosis of epithelioid/biphasic pleural mesothelioma must be histologically confirmed, preferably by video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS).

- •The participant (or legally acceptable representative if applicable) provides written informed consent for the trial.
- •Measurable disease, defined as at least 1 lesion measured in two positions at three separate levels on transverse cuts of CT scan that is suitable for repeated assessment using modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours \[m-RECIST 1.1\] for pleural mesothelioma is preferred; however, inclusion of specific cases without measurable disease could be discussed with the medical monitor and during the multidisciplinary team discussion of the surgical centers.
- •Histologically proved diagnosis of treatment-naive epithelioid/biphasic pleural mesothelioma.
- •Surgical resectable disease \[stage I - II - IIIA (T1-3 - N0/1-M0) according to ninth TNM edition\].
- •No previous surgical resection of mesothelioma.
- •Archival tumor tissue sample or newly obtained \[core, incisional or excisional\] biopsy of a tumor lesion not previously irradiated has been provided. Formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue blocks are preferred to slides. Newly obtained biopsies are preferred to archived tissue.
- •Have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 to
排除标准
- •Subject incapacitated to understand and voluntarily sign an ICF prior to any study-related assessments/procedures being conducted
- •Primitive peritoneal, pericardial and tunica vaginalis testis mesotheliomas.
- •Cytological diagnosis of pleural mesothelioma not histologically confirmed.
- •Prior treatment with systemic anti-cancer therapy for pleural mesothelioma, prior intraoperative intracavitary chemotherapy for pleural mesothelioma, prior treatment with an anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, anti-PD-L2, anti-CTLA-4 antibody, or any other antibody or drug specifically targeting T-cell co-stimulation or checkpoint pathways.
- •Has a diagnosis of immunodeficiency or is receiving chronic systemic steroid therapy (in dosing exceeding 10 mg daily of prednisone equivalent) or any other form of immunosuppressive therapy within 7 days prior to the first dose of study drug.
- •Subjects with interstitial lung disease that is symptomatic or may interfere with the detection or management of suspected drug-related pulmonary toxicity.

- •Has received prior radiotherapy within 2 weeks of start of study intervention or radiation-related toxicities requiring corticosteroids. Note: Two weeks or fewer of palliative radiotherapy for non-CNS disease is permitted. The last radiotherapy treatment must have been performed at least 7 days before the first dose of study intervention.
- •Has received an investigational agent or has used an investigational device within 4 weeks prior to study intervention administration.

结局指标
主要结局
Primary endpoint - To evaluate the activity of neo-adjuvant treatment by the determination of pathological complete response rate (pCR)
时间窗: Pathological complete response will be evaluated following neoadjuvant treatment and within 6 weeks after the last dose of study intervention.
Pathological complete response defined as 0% residual viable tumor cells in the primary tumor and in sampled lymph nodes, following neoadjuvant treatment as assessed by central pathology assessment. Patients who are not evaluable per central pathology assessment (this includes patients with R2 margins) or who do not have a surgical specimen will be considered as non-pCR (eg, pathology assessments captured as "non-evaluable" or "missing," as appropriate). Patients who received less than 2 cycles out of the planned 3 cycles of neoadjuvant therapy due to unacceptable toxicity will not be considered in the pCR evaluation.
次要结局
- Secondary endpoint - To evaluate the efficacy of neo-adjuvant treatment in terms of event free survival (EFS).(From the start of treatment to any progression of disease precluding surgery, progression or recurrence of disease after surgery, progression of disease in the absence of surgery, or death from any cause, up to 24 months.)
- Secondary endpoint - To evaluate the safety profile of neoadjuvant treatment(Safety profile will be evaluated during the entire duration of the study, up to 24 months.)
- Secondary endpoint - To further evaluate the activity of neo-adjuvant treatment in terms of major pathological response.(Major pathological response will be evaluated at the time of surgery that will be performed within 6 weeks after the last dose of study intervention.)
- Secondary endpoint - To evaluate the efficacy of neo-adjuvant treatment in terms of overall survival (OS).(From the start of treatment to death from any cause, up to 24 months.)
- Secondary endpoint - To further evaluate the activity of neo-adjuvant treatment in terms of overall response rate (ORR).(The ORR will be evaluated: at the time of the screening (within 4 weeks before the neoadjuvant treatment); within 6 weeks after neoadjuvant treatment; within 10 weeks after surgery; at every radiological assessment with CT-scan up to 24 months)
- Secondary endpoint - To evaluate the feasibility of neo-adjuvant treatment in terms of resection rate and rate of patients who complete all cycles of neoadjuvant treatment and following surgery.(From the screening to the surgery which is performed within 6 weeks after the neoadjuvant treatment, up to 22 weeks.)
