Trial Summary

What is the purpose of this trial?

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of adding lazertinib to amivantamab, carboplatin, and pemetrexed (LACP/ACP-L dosing strategies) and amivantamab, carboplatin and pemetrexed (ACP) compared with carboplatin and pemetrexed (CP) in participants with locally advanced or metastatic epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) Exon 19del or Exon 21 L858R substitution non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after osimertinib failure. The purpose of the extension cohort is to further describe the safety and efficacy for the ACP-L dosing schedule versus ACP with additional data. After completion of the primary analysis, the study may eventually transition to an open-label extension (OLE) or long-term extension (LTE) phase during which participants will have the option to continue their assigned treatment.

Will I have to stop taking my current medications?

The trial requires that you stop taking osimertinib at least 8 days before starting the study treatment. The protocol does not specify if you need to stop other medications, so it's best to discuss this with the trial team.

What data supports the effectiveness of the drug combination Amivantamab, Lazertinib, and Chemotherapy for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer?

Research shows that Amivantamab combined with chemotherapy (Carboplatin and Pemetrexed) and sometimes Lazertinib has shown antitumor activity in patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer, especially those with specific genetic mutations. This combination has been effective in patients who have not responded to other treatments, like osimertinib.12345

Is the combination of Amivantamab, Lazertinib, and Chemotherapy safe for humans?

Amivantamab combined with chemotherapy (carboplatin and pemetrexed) has shown safety in early studies for advanced non-small cell lung cancer, and it is approved for certain types of this cancer. However, more data is needed to fully understand the safety of this combination with lazertinib.12467

What makes the drug combination of Amivantamab, Lazertinib, and Chemotherapy unique for treating non-small cell lung cancer?

This drug combination is unique because it targets specific mutations in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that have become resistant to other treatments, like osimertinib. Amivantamab is a bispecific antibody that targets both EGFR and MET mutations, while Lazertinib is a third-generation EGFR inhibitor that can penetrate the brain, making this combination effective even after other treatments have failed.12358

Eligibility Criteria

This trial is for adults with advanced non-squamous NSCLC who have an EGFR mutation and whose cancer has worsened after osimertinib treatment. They should be relatively healthy otherwise, with a good performance status (ECOG 0 or 1), and women must test negative for pregnancy. People can't join if they've had certain serious health issues like small cell lung transformation, untreated brain metastases, ILD, significant heart disease, or are at high risk of blood clots without proper anticoagulation.

Inclusion Criteria

I am fully active or restricted in physically strenuous activity but can do light work.
My cancer worsened after treatment with osimertinib.
Side effects from my previous cancer treatments have mostly gone away.

Exclusion Criteria

I have brain metastases that are causing symptoms or getting worse.
I have a history of serious heart or blood clot issues.
I received radiotherapy for lung cancer relief less than 2 weeks ago.

Treatment Details

Interventions

  • Amivantamab
  • Carboplatin
  • Lazertinib
  • Pemetrexed
Trial OverviewThe study tests the effectiveness of combining Amivantamab and Lazertinib with platinum-based chemotherapy (Carboplatin/Pemetrexed) against just the chemotherapy in patients whose NSCLC has progressed post-Osimertinib therapy. It aims to see if adding these targeted therapies improves outcomes.

Group II: Arm C2 (Extension Cohort): ACPExperimental Treatment3 Interventions
Participants will receive Amivantamab, Pemetrexed, and Carboplatin as IV infusion for up to 4 cycles (each cycle consists of 21 days). After 4 cycles, participants will receive Amivantamab and Pemetrexed as maintenance until disease progression.
Group III: Arm A: LACP/ACP-LExperimental Treatment4 Interventions
LACP dosing (study start until 6 November 2022): Participants will receive Lazertinib orally along with Amivantamab, Pemetrexed, and Carboplatin as IV infusion starting on Cycle 1 Day 1 for 4 cycles (each cycle consists of 21 days). After 4 cycles, participants will receive Amivantamab, Pemetrexed and Lazertinib as maintenance until disease progression. ACP-L dosing (from 7 November 2022 until study completion): Participants will receive Amivantamab, Pemetrexed, and Carboplatin starting on Cycle 1 Day 1 for 4 cycles. Lazertinib in ACP-L will start on Cycle 5 Day 1 or sooner if carboplatin is discontinued before cycle 4 (each cycle consists of 21 days).

After 4 cycles, participants will receive Pemetrexed, Amivantamab, Lazertinib as maintenance until disease progression.
Group V: Arm B: CP (Carboplatin and Pemetrexed)Active Control2 Interventions
Participants will receive Pemetrexed in combination with Carboplatin as IV infusion for up to 4 cycles (each cycle consists of 21 days). After 4 cycles, participants will receive Pemetrexed as maintenance until disease progression.

Findings from Research

In a phase III trial involving 657 patients with advanced EGFR-mutated non-small-cell lung cancer, both amivantamab-chemotherapy and amivantamab-lazertinib-chemotherapy significantly improved progression-free survival (PFS) compared to standard chemotherapy, with median PFS of 6.3 and 8.3 months versus 4.2 months, respectively.
The combination therapies also showed a higher objective response rate (64% and 63% for amivantamab-chemotherapy and amivantamab-lazertinib-chemotherapy, respectively) compared to chemotherapy (36%), although the amivantamab-lazertinib-chemotherapy regimen had more hematologic adverse events.
Amivantamab plus chemotherapy with and without lazertinib in EGFR-mutant advanced NSCLC after disease progression on osimertinib: primary results from the phase III MARIPOSA-2 study.Passaro, A., Wang, J., Wang, Y., et al.[2023]
In a phase 3 trial involving 308 patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and EGFR exon 20 insertions, the combination of amivantamab and chemotherapy significantly improved progression-free survival compared to chemotherapy alone, with a median of 11.4 months versus 6.7 months.
The combination therapy also showed a higher response rate, with 73% of patients achieving a complete or partial response compared to 47% in the chemotherapy-only group, indicating that amivantamab enhances the effectiveness of standard chemotherapy in this patient population.
Amivantamab plus Chemotherapy in NSCLC with EGFR Exon 20 Insertions.Zhou, C., Tang, KJ., Cho, BC., et al.[2023]
Amivantamab, approved for treating non-small cell lung cancer with specific genetic mutations, works by targeting two pathways: the epithelial growth factor receptor and mesenchymal epithelial transition factor, enhancing the immune response against cancer cells.
Preclinical studies indicate that Amivantamab effectively inhibits cancer cell growth in models with exon20 insertions of the epithelial growth factor receptor, suggesting its potential as a targeted therapy for this specific patient population.
