Endpoints
Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1 and will be based on a Central Radiographic
Assessment Committee (CRAC) review of medical images, as outlined in the Schedule of Assessments.
Additionally, efficacy will be assessed by overall survival.
Pharmacokinetic: Plasma concentrations of rovalpituzumab tesirine ADC and the presence of antitherapeutic antibodies (ATA) will be determined.
Biomarkers: Pharmacodynamic and predictive biomarker assessments will include analyses of tumor
material and circulating tumor cells for DLL3 expression, blood samples for inflammatory, tumor, and
soluble markers. Samples may also be used for other nucleic acid or protein based exploratory
biomarkers to understand the sensitivity or resistance to rovalpituzumab tesirine and biology of SCLC.
Safety: Safety assessments include physical exam, vital signs, body weight, ECOG score, clinical
adverse events, laboratory tests (hematology, serum chemistries, urinalysis, and coagulation), ECGs,
echocardiogram, fluid retention questionnaire, radiographic images review for fluid retention, and
monitoring of concomitant medications.
Patient Reported Outcome (PRO):
Changes in the patient reported outcomes (PROs) EORTC QLQ-C30, EORTC QLQ-LC13, and
EQ-5D-5L from baseline will be assessed.
Inclution Criteria
Histologically or cytologically confirmed extensive-stage disease small cell lung cancer (ED SCLC) at initial diagnosis with ongoing clinical benefit (stable disease [SD], partial response [PR], or complete response [CR]) following completion of 4 cycles of first-line platinum-based therapy
Participant is eligible to be randomized at least 3 but no more than 9 weeks from Day 1 of the fourth cycle of first-line platinum-based chemotherapy.
Participants with a history of central nervous system (CNS) metastases prior to the initiation of first-line platinum-based chemotherapy must have received definitive local treatment and have documentation of stable or improved CNS disease status
Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance score of 0 or 1
Participants must have adequate bone marrow, renal and hepatic function
Availability of archived or representative tumor material for assessment of DLL3 expression
Exclusion Criteria
Any prior systemic chemotherapy, small molecule inhibitors, immune checkpoint inhibitors, other monoclonal antibodies, antibody-drug conjugates, radioimmunoconjugates, T-cell or other cell-based or biologic therapies, or any other anti-cancer therapy than that described in inclusion criteria for SCLC.
Any disease-directed radiotherapy (except prophylactic cranial irradiation, palliative radiotherapy to a radiographically documented non-progressing lesion for symptom control, or pre-planned radiotherapy for CNS metastases present prior to start of first-line therapy and non-progressing) after last dose of first-line chemotherapy.
Prior exposure to a pyrrolobenzodiazepine (PBD-based) or indolinobenzodiazepine-based drug, prior participation in a rovalpituzumab tesirine clinical trial, or known hypersensitivity or other contraindications to rovalpituzumab tesirine or excipient contained in the drug formulation.
