About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Stage IIIB focused on measuring alectinib, positive-ALK, non small cell lung cancer

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria: Both sexes ≥ 18 years old Pathologically confirmed diagnosis of NSCLC Stage IIIB - IV by the American Joint Committee of Cancer Version 8. Recurrent disease (at least 180 days from curative intent treatment) ALK rearrangements tested by FDA-approved tests (IHQ or FISH) Karnofsky PS scale ≥ 70% Having received first-line treatment with anti-ALK inhibitors and one previous line of platinum-based chemotherapy.

Sexually active patients should use a contraceptive method with a failure rate of less than 1% per year. Signed written informed consent Adequate organ function (hematological, liver, and renal function) Life expectancy of at least 12 weeks Exclusion Criteria: Carcinomatous meningitis confirmed by a positive CRL cytology or highly suspicious brain MRI. Previous malignancies except for any carcinoma in-situ Treatment with other anti-cancer therapy Participating in other clinical trials in the former four weeks Any other serious condition or uncontrolled active infection, altered mental status, or psychiatric condition that, in the investigator´s opinion, would limit the ability of an individual to meet the requirements of the study or which affects the interpretability of the results.

Arm Description

Alecensa 150 mg Roche

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

AUC
The area under the curve (AUC). Pharmacokinetic behavior of the initial alectinib for each given dose (300, 450 and 600 mg).
Cmax
Highest concentration of drug in blood (Serum) for each given dose (300, 450 and 600 mg).

Steady state
The amount of drug in the plasma has built up to a therapeutically effective concentration level, and as long as regular doses are administered to balance the amount of drug being cleared, the drug will continue to be active.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Adverse events

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This interventional study aims to determine the pharmacokinetics of orally administered alectinib with dose escalation from 300 mg to 600 mg twice daily in Mexican patients with advanced ALK-positive NSCLC. The main question it aims to answer is: what will be the peak plasma concentrations of alectinib following sequential dose escalation (300, 450, and 600 mg BID) over nine weeks of pharmacokinetic evaluation (phase I) in Mexican patients with advanced ALK-rearranged NSCLC? In phase I (on days 0, 21, and 42), oral alectinib will be administered twice per day (BID) to patients with ALK-positive NSCLC; starting with 300 mg BID in 21-day cycles and dose escalation in 150 mg increments until 600 mg BID. Blood samples will be taken before and after administration of each dose (on days 1, 22, and 43). The primary endopoints in phase I will be dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) and PK parameters (Cmax. maximum plasma concentration; Tmax: time to reach maximum concentration: AUC 1-12: area under plasma ocncentrations-time curve steady-state concentration). At the end of the last blood collection (at day 43), the evaluation of each cycle will be at 600 mg, and the participant will be discharged to continue their treatment on an outpatient basis. Phase one will finish on day 63 of the study. In phase II, the chosen BID dose based on the phase I portion will be administrated until disease progression, development of unacceptable side effects, or withdrawal of consent. The primary endpoint in phase 2 is the overall response rate (ORR) per RECIST V.1.1.
Detailed Description
Alectinib will be administrated under fast conditions. The primary endpoint of the phase II part was ORR. Other secondary endpoints in phase II are progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), intracranial response (ICR), and duration of response (DOR). Exploratory endpoints in this follow-up analysis included the evaluation of the correlation between tumor shrinkage and PFS and chosen dose to relieve cancer symptoms.
