Patient case: 45-year-old female with cervical cancer; genetic feature: ERBB2 (S310Y)

Clinical trial: Study of Safety and Efficacy of EGFR-TKI EGF816 in Combination With cMET Inhibitor INC280 in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Patients With EGFR Mutation.

Summary: The study is designed to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of EGF816 in combination with INC280 and to estimate the preliminary anti-tumor activity of EGF816 in combination with INC280 in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with documented EGFR mutation.


Eligibility: Inclusion criteria:

  -  Locally documented EGFR mutation L858R and/or ex19del, or a characterized de novo EGFR T790M mutation (or other rare activating mutations that confer sensitivity to 1st and 2nd generation EGFR inhibitors (e.g. L861Q, G719X, S768I)

  -  Phase II Group 2 (EGFRmut, de novo T790M, any c-MET, 1/3L antineoplastic, EGFR TKI naïve) only: Advanced NSCLC patients who have not been previously treated with any therapy known to inhibit EGFR and harbor de novo T790M mutation .
  -  Phase II Group 3 (EGFRmut, T790M negative, any c-MET, 1L antineoplastic) only: patients must harbor an EGFR activating mutation and must be naïve from any line of systemic antineoplastic therapy in the advanced setting.
  -  Phase II Group 4 (EGFRmut, any T790M, any c-MET, 1L (treatment-naïve), 2//3L antineoplastic): All patients must harbor an EGFR activating mutation and 2/3L patients must have failed (defined as intolerance to treatment or documented disease progression) a maximum of 2 prior lines of antineoplastic therapy in the advanced setting
  Exclusion Criteria:

  -  More than two previous treatment lines of systemic antineoplastic therapies in the advanced setting

EGFR inhibitors include (but not limited to) all generations of EGFR TKI (e.g.erlotinib, gefitinib, afatinib, AZD9291, CO-1686, ASP8273, EGF816) or other anti-EGFR or EGFR monoclonal antibody therapy or dual TKI inhibitors.
  -  Phase II Group 3 (EGFRmut, T790M negative, any c-MET, 1L antineoplastic):
