Lung Cancer Clinical Trial

Efficacy and Safety of Pembrolizumab (MK-3475) With Lenvatinib (E7080/MK-7902) vs. Docetaxel in Participants With Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) and Progressive Disease (PD) After Platinum Doublet Chemotherapy and Immunotherapy (MK-7902-008/E7080-G000-316/LEAP-008)

Summary

This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab (MK-3475) with lenvatinib (E7080/MK-7902) vs. docetaxel in participants with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and progressive disease (PD) after platinum doublet chemotherapy and treatment with one prior anti-PD-1/PD-L1 monoclonal antibody (mAb). The primary hypotheses of this study are that pembrolizumab + lenvatinib (compared with docetaxel) prolongs: 1) overall survival (OS); and progression-free survival (PFS) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) based on blinded independent central review (BICR).

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

Has a histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of metastatic squamous or nonsquamous NSCLC (Stage IV: M1a, M1b, M1c).

Has PD on treatment with one prior anti-PD-1/PD-L1 monoclonal antibody (mAb) administered either as monotherapy or in combination with other checkpoint inhibitors or other therapies.

Retreatment with the same anti-PD-L1/PD-L1 mAb is acceptable in the overall course of treatment
Has PD during/after platinum doublet chemotherapy for metastatic disease.
Has confirmation that EGFR-, ALK-, or ROS1-directed therapy is not indicated as primary therapy (documentation of absence of tumor-activating EGFR mutations [eg, DEL19 or L858R], and absence of ALK and ROS1 gene rearrangements OR presence of a K-ras mutation).
Has submitted pre-study imaging that confirmed evidence of PD following initiation of an anti-PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor.
Has at least 1 measurable lesion by computerized tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) per RECIST 1.1, as determined by the local site assessment.
Has provided tumor tissue for PD-L1 biomarker analysis from an archival sample (defined as: from initial diagnosis of NSCLC and prior to receiving immunotherapy [antiPD-1/PD-L1], from the primary lesion or a metastatic lesion).
Has provided prior to allocation tissue from a newly obtained formalin-fixed sample from a new biopsy (defined as: after completion of immunotherapy [anti-PD-1/PD-L1] and before receiving a randomization number), of a tumor lesion not previously irradiated.
Has Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1 within 7 days before the first dose of study intervention but before randomization.
Has a life expectancy of at least 3 months.
Male participants receiving pembrolizumab ± lenvatinib or lenvatinib must agree to refrain from donating sperm, and either 1) be abstinent from heterosexual intercourse; or 2) follow contraceptive guidance during the treatment period or 7 days after the last dose of lenvatinib. Male participants receiving docetaxel agree to adhere to the same conditions during the treatment period and for ≥90 days after the last dose of study treatment.
Female participants must not be pregnant, not be breastfeeding, and not be a woman of child-bearing potential (WOCBP). If a WOCBP, agrees to not donate eggs and either use contraception, or be abstinent from heterosexual intercourse during the treatment period and for ≥120 days after the last dose of pembrolizumab or 30 days after the last dose of lenvatinib, whichever occurs last. If a WOCBP receiving docetaxel, agrees to adhere to the same conditions during the treatment period and for ≥30 days after the last dose of study treatment.
Has adequately controlled blood pressure (BP) with or without antihypertensive medications, defined as BP ≤150/90 mm Hg and no change in antihypertensive medications within 1 week before randomization.
If participant received major surgery or radiation therapy of >30 Gy, they have recovered from the toxicity and/or complications from the intervention.
Has adequate organ function.

Exclusion Criteria:

Has received docetaxel as monotherapy or in combination with other therapies.
Has received lenvatinib as monotherapy or in combination with an anti-PD-1/PD-L1 mAb.

Has received a live vaccine within 30 days before the first dose of study treatment.
Has clinically significant hemoptysis or tumor bleeding within 2 weeks before the first dose of study treatment.
Has radiographic evidence of intratumoral cavitation, encasement, or invasion of a major blood vessel.

Has a diagnosis of immunodeficiency or is receiving chronic systemic steroid therapy or any other form of immunosuppressive therapy within 7 days before the first dose of study treatment.
Has a known history of an additional malignancy, except if the participant has undergone potentially curative therapy with no evidence of disease recurrence for 3 years since initiation of that therapy.
Has known active central nervous system metastases and/or carcinomatous meningitis.
Has severe hypersensitivity to pembrolizumab and/or any of its excipients.
Has a sensitivity to any of the excipients contained in lenvatinib and/or docetaxel.
Has an active autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment in the past 2 years.
Has a history of (noninfectious) pneumonitis that required systemic steroids or current pneumonitis/interstitial lung disease.
