A Study to Assess Disease Activity and Adverse Events of Intravenous (IV) Telisotuzumab Vedotin Compared to IV Docetaxel in Adult Participants With Previously Treated Non-Squamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)
EU CTIS ID: 2023-505749-14-00
What this study is testing
The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of telisotuzumab vedotin compared with docetaxel on the basis of progression-free survival (PFS) and/or overall survival (OS) in the following nested populations: - Subjects with c-Met high overexpressing, EGFR wildtype, nonsquamous NSCLC and - All subjects with c-Met overexpressing, EGFR wildtype, non-squamous NSCLC.
- Therapeutic confirmatory (Phase III)

Who can take part
You may be able to join if
- Subject must have c-Met overexpressing NSCLC as assessed by an AbbVie designated IHC laboratory using the VENTANA MET (SP44) RxDx assay
- Subject must have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status of 0 to 1.
- Subject must have received no more than 1 line of prior systemic cytotoxic chemotherapy in the locally advanced or metastatic setting. -Neoadjuvant and adjuvant systemic cytotoxic chemotherapy would count as a prior line for eligibility purposes if progression occurred within 6 months of the end of therapy.
- Subject must have progressed on at least 1 line of prior therapy for locally advanced/metastatic NSCLC: - Subjects WITHOUT an actionable gene alteration: subjects must have progressed on (or be considered ineligible for) platinum-based chemotherapy and immune checkpoint inhibitor (as monotherapy or in combination with chemotherapy). - Subjects WITH an actionable gene alteration for which immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy is not standard of care (e.g., anaplastic lymphoma kinase [ALK] translocation): subjects must have progressed on (or be considered ineligible for) anti-cancer therapy targeting driver gene alterations and platinum-based chemotherapy. - Subjects with actionable gene alterations for which immune checkpoint inhibitor is standard of care must have also progressed on (or be considered ineligible for) immune checkpoint inhibitor (as monotherapy or in combination with chemotherapy).
- Subject must be considered appropriate for docetaxel therapy based on the assessment of the treating physician.
- Archival or fresh tumor material must be submitted for assessment of c-Met protein expression levels by an AbbVie designated IHC laboratory during the Pre-Screening period. Tumor material from the primary tumor site and/or metastatic sites are allowed. If archival tissue is negative for c-Met overexpression, fresh biopsy material may be submitted for reassessment of c-Met expression (see Operations Manual Section 3.7). - If a subject was prescreened for Study M14-239 but did not enroll, tumor material previously submitted for Study M14-239 may be used for Study M18-868 Pre-Screening upon confirmation from AbbVie that sufficient evaluable tumor material is available
You likely can't join if
- Subject has adenosquamous or neuroendocrine histology, or sarcomatoid features

- Subject has clinically significant condition(s) including but not limited to the following: Clinically significant vascular disease, including: - Myocardial infarction within 1 year or stroke within 6 months prior to first dose of study drug, or unstable or uncontrolled disease/condition related to or affecting cardiac function (e.g., unstable angina, congestive heart failure, New York Heart Association Class III-IV), cardiac arrhythmia (CTCAE Version 5 Grade 2 or higher), or clinically significant electrocardiogram (ECG) abnormalities. - Screening 12-lead ECG showing a baseline QT interval as corrected by Fridericia's formula (QTcF) > 450 msec; Clinically significant liver disease, including hepatitis, current alcohol abuse, or cirrhosis; Grade ≥ 2 edema or lymphedema; Grade ≥ 2 ascites or pleural effusion; Grade ≥ 2 neuropathy; Active uncontrolled bacterial or viral infection; Active corneal disorder.
- Subject has a history of major immunologic reaction to any immunoglobulin G (IgG)-containing agent. Subject has hypersensitivity to docetaxel or polysorbate 80.
- Subjects have received any live vaccine within 30 days of the first dose of study drug.
- Treatment with any of the following therapies within the noted time intervals prior to randomisation: - Within 2 weeks (14 days): radiation therapy not involving the lungs. - Within 4 weeks (28 days) or 5 half-lives (whichever is shorter): systemic cytotoxic chemotherapy; small molecule targeted agents; monoclonal antibodies, antibody-drug conjugates, radioimmunoconjugates, or T-cell or other cell-based therapies.
