A PHASE 1 OPEN-LABEL STUDY OF HER3-DXd (PATRITUMAB DERUXTECAN; U3-1402) IN COMBINATION WITH OSIMERTINIB IN SUBJECTS WITH LOCALLY ADVANCED OR METASTATIC EGFR-MUTATED NON-SMALL CELL LUNG CANCER (NSCLC)
Trial Description
This study includes a Dose Escalation Part to identify the recommended combination dose
(RCD) and a Dose Expansion Part to further evaluate efficacy and safety.
The primary objectives:
Dose Escalation: To assess the safety and tolerability of HER3-DXd (patritumab
deruxtecan; U3-1402) and osimertinib in subjects with locally advanced or metastatic
non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with an EGFR exon 19 deletion or L858R mutation with
tumor progression after treatment with osimertinib, and to determine the recommended
combination dose (RCD).
Second-Line Dose Expansion Arm 1 and Arm 1b: To assess the preliminary antitumor activity
of HER3-DXd and osimertinib in subjects with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with an
EGFR exon 19 deletion or L858R mutation with tumor progression after treatment with
osimertinib. Note: One or both of the study arms may open with one or two distinct dosing
schedules.
Second-Line Dose Expansion Arm 2: To assess the preliminary antitumor activity of
HER3-DXd monotherapy in subjects with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with an EGFR
exon 19 deletion or L858R mutation with tumor progression after treatment with
osimertinib.
First-Line Dose Expansion Cohorts 3, 4a, and 4b: To assess the preliminary antitumor
activity of HER3-DXd and osimertinib in subjects with locally advanced or metastatic
NSCLC with an EGFR exon 19 deletion or L858R mutation without prior systemic treatment
for locally advanced or metastatic disease.
