A Phase I/II Study of Necitumumab Plus Pembrolizumab, Nab-Paclitaxel, and Carboplatin for Previously Untreated Advanced Squamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Study: (NEJ048A/NEXUS).
Clinical Lung Cancer 2023 Februrary 2
BACKGROUND: Platinum-based combination therapy plus a programmed cell death 1/programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-1/PD-L1) inhibitor is a standard treatment for patients with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. However, necitumumab is used with gemcitabine and cisplatin as a first-line treatment option for squamous cell lung cancer (SqCLC). Furthermore, the combination of necitumumab with immune checkpoint inhibitors has the potential to enhance tumor immunity and improve the therapeutic effect. Thus, we planned and initiated this phase I/II study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of necitumumab plus pembrolizumab, nanoparticle albumin-bound (nab)-paclitaxel), and carboplatin therapy for patients with previously untreated SqCLC.
PATIENTS AND METHODS: In phase I, the primary endpoint is the tolerability and recommended dose of necitumumab combined with pembrolizumab plus nab-paclitaxel and carboplatin. In phase II, the primary endpoint is the overall response rate. Secondary endpoints are disease control rate, progression-free survival, overall survival, and safety. Forty-two patients will be enrolled in phase II.
CONCLUSION: This is the first study to investigate the efficacy and safety of necitumumab plus pembrolizumab combined with platinum-based chemotherapy in patients with previously untreated SqCLC.
