A Study of Ficlatuzumab in Combination With Cetuximab in Participants With Recurrent or Metastatic (R/M) HPV Negative Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Официальное название

A Multicenter, Randomized, Double Blind, Placebo - Controlled, Phase 3 Study of Ficlatuzumab in Combination With Cetuximab in Participants With Recurrent or Metastatic (R/M) HPV -Negative Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma. (FIERCE-HN)

Обзор

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of ficlatuzumab plus cetuximab compared to placebo plus cetuximab in participants with recurrent/metastatic (R/M) HPV-negative Head and Neck Cancer. The primary hypothesis is that ficlatuzumab combined with cetuximab is superior to cetuximab alone in terms of progression-free survival and/or overall survival.

Подробное описание

This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 3 study is designed to compare the efficacy and safety of two dose levels of ficlatuzumab combined with cetuximab (Arm 1 or Arm 2) to a control arm of placebo plus cetuximab (Arm 3) in participants with R/M human papilloma virus (HPV)-negative HNSCC. Eligible participants must have failed prior therapy with an anti-PD-1 \[programmed cell death protein 1\] or PD-L1 \[programmed death ligand 1\] immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) and with platinum-based chemotherapy, administered in combination or sequentially. Failure of prior treatment may be due to progression of disease or intolerance to treatment. It is anticipated that the study will enroll approximately 410 participants across 3 arms.

Вмешательства

• Биопрепарат Ficlatuzumab
  Ficlatuzumab (AV-299) is a humanized hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) inhibitory immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1) monoclonal antibody (mAb).

• To compare the safety and tolerability of ficlatuzumab plus cetuximab vs placebo plus cetuximab in participants with R/M HNSCC [Срок оценки: From Screening until 30 days after last dose]
• To evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of ficlatuzumab [Срок оценки: From Baseline (Cycle 1 Day 1 pre-dose) until End of Treatment (Approximately 44 months)]
• To assess the immunogenicity of ficlatuzumab via antidrug antibodies (ADAs) [Срок оценки: From Baseline (Cycle 1 Day 1 pre-dose) until End of Treatment (Approximately 44 months)]
• To assess the immunogenicity of ficlatuzumab via neutralizing antibodies (nAB) [Срок оценки: From Baseline (Cycle 1 Day 1 pre-dose) until End of Treatment (Approximately 44 months)]
• To evaluate the quality of life (QOL) of ficlatuzumab plus cetuximab vs placebo plus cetuximab in participants with R/M HNSCC [Срок оценки: From Baseline (Cycle 1 Day 1 pre-dose) until End of Treatment (Approximately 44 months)]

Критерии участия

• At least 1 measurable lesion by contrast CT or MRI scan according to RECIST v.1.1. Such lesions must not have been previously irradiated; if the measurable lesion(s) has been irradiated, clear progression must be documented
• Participants must have failed prior therapy with an anti-PD-1/PD-L1 ICI and with platinum-based chemotherapy administered in combination or sequentially, in either the locally advanced or R/M setting. Failure of prior treatment may be due to progression of disease or intolerance to treatment
• Patient's tumor must be considered inoperable and incurable
• Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1 with a life expectancy of at least 12 weeks
• For women of childbearing potential (WOCBP), documentation of negative serum pregnancy test within 30 days of randomization
• For WOCBP and male participants whose sexual partners are of childbearing potential, agreement to use an effective method of contraception during the study and for at least 5 months after the last dose of study treatment. Birth control methods which may be considered highly effective include methods that achieve a failure rate of less than 1% per year when used consistently and correctly.
• Ability to give written informed consent and comply with protocol requirements
• Patients with feeding tubes are eligible for the study.
• Archived tissue sample must be submitted to the Sponsor-designated laboratory within 60 days of randomization for c-Met analysis (if a tissue sample is not available, a fresh biopsy may be required prior to enrollment)
