Study Description

Brief Summary:

The purpose of this open-label, single-arm, multi-center phase II trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of novel pan-HER inhibitor, NOV120101 (Poziotinib), as a 2nd line monotherapy agent in lung adenocarcinoma patients with acquired resistance to prior EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs).

Condition or disease	Intervention/treatment	Phase
Increased Drug Resistance	Drug: NOV120101 (Poziotinib)	Phase 2

Detailed Description:

Acquired resistance to prior EGFR TKIs is considered as "unmet medical need" in clinical practice. To evaluate the efficacy of NOV120101 (Poziotinib) as a second-line monotherapeutic agent, patients with acquired resistance to gefitinib or erlotinib will be enrolled in this study. Subjects will receive NOV120101 (Poziotinib) 16 mg PO once daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity development. Progression free survival (PFS) will be analyzed as the primary endpoint in this trial. Secondary endpoints including PFS rate at 16 weeks, ORR and DCR will also be analyzed.

Study Design

• Study Type: Interventional (Clinical Trial)
• Actual Enrollment: 40 participants
• Allocation: N/A
• Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment

• Primary Purpose: Treatment
• Official Title: Phase II Exploratory Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of NOV120101 (Poziotinib) in Lung Adenocarcinoma Patients With Acquired Resistance to 1st Generation EGFR Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors

Arms and Interventions

Arm	Intervention/treatment
Experimental: NOV120101 (Poziotinib); 16 mg PO once daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity development	Drug: NOV120101 (Poziotinib); 16 mg PO once daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity development; Other Name: HM781-36B

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures :

1. Progression free survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: By 1 year after enrollment of the last subject ]
   The length of time during and after medication or treatment during which the disease being treated (usually cancer) does not get worse.

Secondary Outcome Measures :

1. PFS rate at 16 weeks [ Time Frame: 16 weeks ]
   The proportion of Patients maintaining progress-free status at 16 weeks
2. Objective response rate (ORR) [ Time Frame: By 1 year after enrollment of the last subject ]
   The proportion of patients with partial response or complete response at their best tumor treatment evaluation
3. Disease control rate (DCR) [ Time Frame: By 1 year after enrollment of the last subject ]
   The proportion of patients with CR, PR and/or stable disease (SD)
4. Overall survival (OS) [ Time Frame: By 1 year after enrollment of the last subject ]
5. Time to progression (TTP) [ Time Frame: By 1 year after enrollment of the last subject ]
6. Time to objective response [ Time Frame: By 1 year after enrollment of the last subject ]
7. Duration of objective response [ Time Frame: By 1 year after enrollment of the last subject ]
8. Duration of disease control [ Time Frame: By 1 year after enrollment of the last subject ]
9. Change of quality of life (QoL) measured by EQ-5D questionnaire [ Time Frame: baseline and the end of treatment, by 1 year after enrollment of the last subject ]

Other Outcome Measures:

1. Population pharmacokinetics (PK) of NOV120101 (Poziotinib) [ Time Frame: By 3 months after enrollment of the last subject ]
   The study of the sources and correlates of variability in drug concentrations among individuals who are the target patient population receiving clinically relevant doses of a study drug. Certain patient demographic, pathophysiological, and therapeutical features, such as body weight, excretory and metabolic functions, and the presence of other therapies, can regularly alter dose-concentration relationships.
2. Subgroup analyses with the genetic information [ Time Frame: by 1 year after enrollment of the last patient ]
   Subgroup analysis, in the context of design and analysis of study drug, refers to looking for pattern in a subset of the subjects according to genotype
