Official title

A Phase 3 Study of the Selective Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) Inhibitor NVL-655 Compared to Alectinib in First-Line Treatment of Patients With ALK-Positive Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (ALKAZAR)

Overview

Multicenter, randomized, controlled, open-label, Phase 3 study designed to demonstrate that neladalkib (NVL-655) is superior to alectinib in prolonging progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with treatment-naïve, Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) positive, advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).

Detailed description

Patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio (approximately 225 in each arm) to receive either neladalkib (NVL-655) or alectinib.

Interventions

  • Drug Neladalkib (NVL-655)
    Oral tablet of Neladalkib (NVL-655)
  • Drug Alectinib
    Oral capsule of alectinib

Primary outcome measures

  • Progression-free survival (PFS) per blinded independent central review (BICR) [Time frame: Up to 5 years after first patient dosed]
Secondary outcome measures (12)
  • Overall survival (OS) [Time frame: Up to 5 years after first patient dosed]
  • Progression-free survival (PFS) per investigator assessment [Time frame: Up to 5 years after first patient dosed]
  • Time to intracranial progression per BICR [Time frame: Up to 5 years after first patient dosed]
  • Intracranial objective response rate (IC-ORR) [Time frame: Up to 5 years after first patient dosed]
  • Intracranial duration of response (IC-DOR) [Time frame: Up to 5 years after first patient dosed]
  • Objective response rate (ORR) [Time frame: Up to 5 years after first patient dosed]
  • Duration of response (DOR) [Time frame: Up to 5 years after first patient dosed]
  • Intracranial progression per investigator assessment [Time frame: Up to 5 years after first patient dosed]
  • Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and changes in clinically relevant laboratory parameters [Time frame: Up to 5 years after first patient dosed]
  • Patient-reported measures in health-related quality of life (QoL) [Time frame: Up to 5 years after first patient dosed]
  • Patient-reported measures in lung cancer symptoms and side effects of treatment [Time frame: Up to 5 years after first patient dosed]
  • Patient-reported measures in patient functioning [Time frame: Up to 5 years after first patient dosed]

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion criteria

  • Histologically or cytologically confirmed locally advanced (not amenable for multimodality treatment) or metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)
  • Documented Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) rearrangement via testing of tissue or blood
  • No prior systemic anticancer treatment for NSCLC (adjuvant/neoadjuvant chemotherapy allowed if 12 months prior to randomization; prior ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitor \[TKI\] such as alectinib is not allowed in any setting)
  • Measurable disease (1 or more target lesions per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors \[RECIST\] 1.1)
  • Pretreatment tumor tissue

Exclusion criteria

  • Patient's cancer has a known oncogenic driver alteration other than ALK.
  • Known allergy/hypersensitivity to excipients of neladalkib or alectinib.
  • Ongoing or recent radiotherapy as per protocol-specified timeframes prior to randomization
  • Major surgery within 4 weeks prior to randomization
  • Uncontrolled clinically relevant infection requiring systemic therapy
  • Known active tuberculosis, or active Hepatitis B or C
  • QT corrected for heart rate by Fridericia's formula (QTcF) > 470 msec on repeated assessments
  • Clinically significant cardiovascular disease
  • Brain metastases associated with progressive neurological symptoms or requiring increasing doses of corticosteroids to control CNS disease
  • Active malignancy requiring therapy within 2 years prior to randomization

Criteria are shown verbatim from the registry (in English). Final eligibility is always assessed by the study center.
