A Study of Lazertinib as Monotherapy or in Combination With Amivantamab in Participants With Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (Chrysalis-2)

A Study of Lazertinib as Monotherapy or in Combination With Amivantamab in Participants With Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

An Open-label Phase 1/1b Study to Evaluate the Safety and Pharmacokinetics of JNJ-73841937 (Lazertinib), a Third Generation EGFR-TKI, as Monotherapy or in Combinations With JNJ-61186372, a Human Bispecific EGFR and cMet Antibody in Participants With Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

The purpose of this study is to confirm the tolerability of recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of Lazertinib (Phase 1), to determine the tolerability and identify the recommended Phase 2 combination dose of Lazertinib when combined with Amivantamab (JNJ-61186372) (Phase 1b), to characterize the safety and tolerability of Lazertinib and Amivantamab combinations at the RP2CD in participants with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with documented advanced or metastatic epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation (Phase 1b expansion cohorts A, B, C, D and E), to estimate the antitumor activity of Lazertinib and Amivantamab combinations at the RP2CD in participants with advanced NSCLC with documented advanced or metastatic EGFR mutation (Phase 1b expansion cohorts A, B, C, and D), to validate the biomarker identified in Phase 1b expansion Cohort D as a predictor of antitumor activity of Lazertinib and Amivantamab combination (Cohort E) or Amivantamab monotherapy (Cohort F) in participants with osimertinib-relapsed, chemotherapy-naïve, EGFR Exon19del or L858R mutated NSCLC, to identify the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2ChD) of Lazertinib when combined with Amivantamab and standard of care chemotherapy and to determine the tolerability of the Lazertinib, Amivantamab, and platinum-doublet chemotherapy (LACP) combination (Phase 1b LACP combination cohort) and to characterize the safety and tolerability of Lazertinib at the RP2ChD and Amivantamab and standard of care chemotherapy in participants with advanced or metastatic EGFR-mutated NSCLC (Phase 1b LACP combination cohort), to assess 2 potential biomarker strategies to identify participants at increased, or decreased, probability of tumor response with JNJ-61186372 and lazertinib combination in participants with EGFR Exon19del or L858R mutated NSCLC progressed on or after osimertinib (Phase 1b expansion Cohort D).

Lung cancer is one of the most common types of cancer and is also the most common cause of death from cancer. NSCLC accounts for 85 percent (%) to 90% of lung cancers. Lazertinib is an oral, highly potent, mutant-selective, and irreversible EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) targeting both, the T790M mutation and activating EGFR mutations while sparing wild type EGFR. JNJ-61186372 (also referred to as amivantamab), is a low fucose, fully human immunoglobulin G1(IgG1)-based bispecific antibody. As a third generation EGFR-TKI targeting activating EGFR mutations, lazertinib has a distinct mechanism of action from JNJ-61186372, which targets the extracellular domains of both the EGFR and cMet proteins. The distinct mechanisms of action of lazertinib and JNJ-61186372 suggests potential to improve clinical outcomes through the combination of these two molecules. Phase 1 and 1b lazertinib + amivantamab, and Phase 1b LACP combination cohort are divided into 2 periods: screening and treatment period whereas Phase 1b expansion cohorts are divided into 3 periods: screening, treatment, and post-treatment follow up period. Safety assessment will include adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs), physical examinations, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) criteria for performance status, laboratory tests, vital signs, electrocardiograms, chest x-ray, baseline ophthalmologic examination (Phase 1b Expansion Cohorts), echocardiography or multigated acquisition, and concomitant medication usage. The overall duration of the study will be up to 5 years and 2 months.

Participants will receive Lazertinib monotherapy orally once daily (QD) in 21-day cycles until documented evidence of disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, noncompliance, or withdrawal of consent, or the investigator decides to discontinue treatment, whichever comes first. The subsequent doses of Lazertinib will be assigned by the Study Evaluation Team (SET) according to the dose escalation strategy by Bayesian logistic regression model (BLRM).

Participants will receive Lazertinib and Amivantamab, after the safety of RP2D of Lazertinib is confirmed in the Phase 1, in 28-day cycles until documented evidence of disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, noncompliance, or withdrawal of consent, or the investigator decides to discontinue treatment, whichever comes first. This phase will start enrolling participants after the safety of Amivantamab is confirmed in Japanese participants in Study 61186372EDI1001 (NCT02609776).

Participants will receive Lazertinib starting dose administered orally once daily (QD) in combination with Amivantamab, and doses of platinum-based chemotherapy (carboplatin and pemetrexed) per standard of care according to local guidance in a 21-day cycle for 4 cycles followed by maintenance with Lazertinib, Amivantamab and pemetrexed until disease progression or unacceptable toxicities.

This cohort A will further characterize the safety, tolerability, and preliminary antitumor activity of Lazertinib and Amivantamab based combinations within specific NSCLC population "who have progressed after osimertinib and subsequent platinum-based chemotherapy, and platinum-based chemotherapy regimen as the last line of therapy prior to study enrollment. Prior use of first or second generation EGFR TKI is allowed if administered prior to osimertinib. Participants will receive at the RP2CD of Lazertinib orally QD and Amivantamab, every 7 days for the first 28 days cycle and every 2 weeks thereafter.

This Cohort B will further characterize the safety, tolerability and preliminary antitumor activity of Lazertinib and JNJ-61186372 combination in participants previously treated with advanced or metastatic NSCLC with documented primary EGFR Exon 20ins activating mutation. Participants will receive at the RP2CD of Lazertinib orally QD and Amivantamab, every 7 days for the first 28 days cycle and every 2 weeks thereafter.

This Cohort C will further characterize the safety, tolerability and preliminary antitumor activity of Lazertinib and JNJ-61186372 combination in participants with uncommon EGFR mutations. Participants will receive at the RP2CD of Lazertinib orally QD and Amivantamab, every 7 days for the first 28 days cycle and every 2 weeks thereafter.

Cohort D will seek to validate one or both potential biomarker strategies (next generation sequencing [NGS] and Immunohistochemical [IHC]), previously identified in Cohort E of Study 61186372EDI1001, in participants with osimertinib-relapsed, but chemotherapy-naive, EGFR Exon19del or L858R mutated NSCLC. Participants will receive at the RP2CD of Lazertinib orally QD and Amivantamab, every 7 days for the first 28 days cycle and every 2 weeks thereafter.

Participants will receive at the RP2CD of Lazertinib orally QD and Amivantamab, every 7 days for the first 28 days cycle and every 2 weeks thereafter. Cohort E will seek to validate the immunohistochemical (IHC)-based biomarker strategy, by characterizing the activity of Amivantamab and Lazertinib combination in biomarker-positive participants with osimertinib-relapsed, but chemotherapy-naïve, EGFR Exon19del or L858R mutated NSCLC. In addition, Cohort E will seek to collect prospective data to confirm that prophylactic anticoagulation safely and effectively decreases the incidence of VTE events for patients treated with the combination of Amivantamab and Lazertinib, using Cohort F as reference.

Participants will receive Amivantamab monotherapy once weekly (QW) for 4 weeks, then every 2 weeks thereafter. Cohort F will seek to validate the IHC-based biomarker strategy, previously identified in Cohort D, by characterizing the activity of JNJ-61186372 monotherapy (Cohort F) in biomarker-positive participants with osimertinib-relapsed, but chemotherapy-naïve, EGFR Exon19del or L858R mutated NSCLC.
