Overview

Phase 1/2, dose escalation and expansion study designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of zidesamtinib (NVL-520), determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D), and evaluate the antitumor activity in patients with advanced ROS1-positive (ROS1+) NSCLC and other advanced ROS1-positive solid tumors.

Phase 1 will determine the RP2D and, if applicable, the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of zidesamtinib in patients with advanced ROS1-positive solid tumors.

Phase 2 will determine the objective response rate (ORR) as assessed by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR) of zidesamtinib at the RP2D. Secondary objectives will include the duration of response (DOR), time to response (TTR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and clinical benefit rate (CBR) of zidesamtinib in patients with advanced ROS1-positive NSCLC and other solid tumors.

Description

In Phase 2, study patients will be enrolled into 5 distinct expansion cohorts:

  • Cohort 2a: ROS1-positive NSCLC naïve to Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor (TKI) therapy and up to 1 prior chemotherapy and/or immunotherapy.
  • Cohort 2b: ROS1-positive NSCLC treated with 1 prior ROS1 TKI and no prior chemotherapy or immunotherapy.
  • Cohort 2c: ROS1-positive NSCLC treated with 1 prior ROS1 TKI and 1 prior platinum-based chemotherapy with or without immunotherapy.
  • Cohort 2d: ROS1-positive NSCLC treated with ≥2 prior ROS1 TKIs and up to 1 prior chemotherapy and/or immunotherapy.
  • Cohort 2e: ROS1-positive solid tumor and progressed on any prior therapy.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Age ≥18 years (Cohort 2e only: Age ≥12 years).
  2. Disease Criteria:
    1. Phase 1: Histologically or cytologically confirmed locally advanced or metastatic solid tumor with documented ROS1 rearrangement.
    2. Phase 2: Cohorts 2a, 2b, 2c and 2d: Histologically or cytologically confirmed locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with ROS1 rearrangement.
    3. Phase 2: Cohort 2e: Histologically or cytologically confirmed locally advanced or metastatic solid tumor (other than NSCLC) with ROS1 rearrangement.
  3. Prior anticancer treatment (except cohort 2a).
  4. Phase 1: Must have evaluable disease (target or nontarget) according to RECIST 1.1. Phase 2: Must have measurable disease according to RECIST 1.1.
  5. Adequate baseline organ function and bone marrow reserve.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Patient's cancer has a known oncogenic driver alteration other than ROS1.
  2. Known allergy/hypersensitivity to excipients of NVL-520.
  3. Major surgery within 4 weeks of first dose of study drug.
  4. Ongoing anticancer therapy.
  5. Actively receiving systemic treatment or direct medical intervention on another therapeutic clinical study.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
