ID: NCT03846310
Our intelligence engine has synthesized this trial record to answer your most important questions in clear, simple terms:
This is a Phase 1/1b, multicenter, open-label, dose-escalation and dose-expansion study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic (PK), pharmacodynamic, and clinical activity of etrumadenant (AB928) in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed, with or without an anti-PD-1 antibody (pembrolizumab or zimberelimab), in participants with non-squamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).
Read Full Scientific Objectives & Methods
In the dose-escalation phase, escalating doses of etrumadenant in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed at standard doses (Arm A), and etrumadenant in combination with carboplatin, pemetrexed and pembrolizumab (Arm B), may be assessed in participants with advanced NSCLC. Eligible participants will receive oral administration of etrumadenant as well as IV infused carboplatin, pemetrexed, with or without pembrolizumab in this phase. The recommended dose for expansion (RDE) of etrumadenant will be determined upon completion of the dose-escalation phase. In the dose-expansion phase, zimberelimab in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed (Arm 1), and etrumadenant at RDE in combination with carboplatin, pemetrexed, and zimberelimab (Arm 2) may be assessed in eligible NSCLC participants who harbor an EGFR mutation and have progressed on EGFR Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor (TKI) treatment(s). Overall duration of treatment will depend on how well the treatment is tolerated. Treatment may continue until unacceptable toxicity or progressive disease or other reasons specified in the protocol.
Etrumadenant is an A2aR and A2bR antagonist
Zimberelimab is a fully human anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody
Carboplatin administered as part of standard chemotherapy regimen
Pemetrexed administered as part of standard chemotherapy regimen
Pembrolizumab is a humanized anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody
Treatment Arms Description
Dose escalation is a 3+3 design, including a Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) evaluation period. The RDE of etrumadenant will be determined in this part with escalating doses of etrumadenant in combination with standard doses of carboplatin/pemetrexed chemotherapy regimen in participants with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.

The RDE of etrumadenant will be determined in this part with escalating doses of etrumadenant in combination with standard doses of carboplatin/pemetrexed chemotherapy regimen and pembrolizumab in participants with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.
Zimberelimab will be administered in combination with standard carboplatin and pemetrexed chemotherapy regimen in participants with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer harboring a sensitizing EGFR mutation.
The etrumadenant at RDE determined from the dose escalation phase will be administered in combination with standard carboplatin and pemetrexed chemotherapy regimen and zimberelimab in participants with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer harboring a sensitizing EGFR mutation.
- Male or female participants; age ≥ 18 years
- Pathologically confirmed nonsquamous NSCLC that is metastatic, locally advanced, or recurrent with progression
- Arm A participants must fulfill one of the following:

- Participant has not received any therapy for the disease under study and standard therapy is refused.
- Participant has progressed on PD-1/-L1 therapy (monotherapy or combination regimen). Previous treatment with chemotherapy is not allowed.
- Participant has progressed on PD-1/-L1 therapy (monotherapy or combination regimen) and has received less than 4 cycles of carboplatin/pemetrexed and further chemotherapy is appropriate.
- Participant has received any number of prior treatments and is without alternative or curative therapy.
- Arm B participants must fulfill one of the following:
- Participant has a genetic alteration (mutation or rearrangement) and has received all available targeted therapy. Previous treatment with chemotherapy or PD-1/-L1 therapy is not allowed.
- Participant has not received any therapy for the disease under study and standard therapy is refused.
- Participant has received any number of prior treatments and is without alternative or curative therapy.
- Arm 1 and Arm 2 participants must have a sensitizing epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation with disease progression or treatment intolerance after one or more approved TKIs. Previous treatment with chemotherapy or PD-1/L-1 therapy is not allowed.
- No TKI therapy within 5 days of Cycle 1 Day 1
- The last dose of previous investigational therapy is at least 4 weeks or 5 half-lives prior to Cycle 1 Day 1.
- Must have at least 1 measurable lesion per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST v1.1)
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status score of 0 or 1.
- Confirm that an archival tissue sample is available and ≤ 24 months old; if not, a new biopsy of a tumor lesion should be obtained at screening
- Adequate organ and marrow function
- Use of any live vaccines against infectious diseases within 4 weeks (28 days) of initiation of investigational product
- Is pregnant or breastfeeding or expecting to conceive or father children within the projected duration of the study, starting with the pre-screening or screening visit through 30 days after the last dose of etrumadenant, 90 days after the last dose of zimberelimab or pembrolizumab, or 6 months after the last dose of pemetrexed, whichever is longer
- Any active autoimmune disease or a documented history of autoimmune disease or syndrome that required systemic treatment in the past 2 years (ie, with use of disease-modifying agents, corticosteroids, or immunosuppressive drugs), except for vitiligo or resolved childhood asthma/atopy
- Prior malignancy active within the previous 2 years except for locally curable cancers that have been apparently cured, such as basal or squamous cell skin cancer, superficial bladder cancer, or carcinoma in situ of the cervix, breast, or prostate cancer
- Prior use of an adenosine pathway targeting agent
- Due to potential for drug-drug interactions with etrumadenant, participants must not have had:
- Treatment with breast cancer resistance protein substrates or P-glycoprotein with a narrow therapeutic window, administered orally within 4 weeks or 5 half-lives of the drug (whichever is longer) prior to initiation of study treatment.
- Treatment with known strong cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) inducers and strong CYP3A4 inhibitors within 4 weeks or 5 half-lives of the drug (whichever is longer) prior to initiation of study treatment
