  • Research summary

    GENERAL BACKGROUND
    This is a Phase 2, randomised, open-label three-arm clinical study to evaluate the safety
    and efficacy of lenvatinib (E7080/MK-7902) in combination with pembrolizumab
    (MK-3475) versus standard of care chemotherapy and lenvatinib monotherapy in
    participants with recurrent/metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (R/M
    HNSCC) that have progressed after platinum therapy and immunotherapy (PD-1/PD-L1
    inhibitors).
    The study will be conducted in conformance with Good Clinical Practices (GCP).
    PATIENT POPULATION
    Approximately 400 male and female participants of at least 18 years of age, who have
    progressed after platinum- containing chemotherapy and a PD-1-PD-L1 inhibitor will be
    enrolled. Participants must have a histologically confirmed diagnosis of R/M HNSCC of
    the oral cavity, oropharynx, hypopharynx, and/or larynx that is considered incurable by
    local therapies.
    STUDY TREATMENT
    This study is expected to last approximately 48 months from the time the first participant
    signs the informed consent until the last participant’s last study-related telephone call or
    visit.
    The study is conducted in 3 phases, screening, intervention phase and a post intervention
    phase. There is an optional crossover phase for participants randomised to standard of
    care chemotherapy who experience verified progressive disease. There is also an
    optional second course treatment phase for certain participants enrolled in the
    pembrolizumab + Lenvatinib arm (Arm 1). They may be eligible for up to an additional
    17 cycles of pembrolizumab with or without Lenvatinib.
    Participants will be assigned randomly in a 3:3:2 ratio into 1 of the 3 treatment arms:
    Arm 1:
    Pembrolizumab 200 mg IV Infusion every 3 weeks (Q3W) for approximately 2 years (35
    cycles) in combination with Lenvatinib 20mg oral dosage daily.
    Arm 2: Investigator’s choice of SOC chemotherapy:
    o Docetaxel – 75mg/m² IV infusion Q3W
    o Capecitabine – 1250 mg/m² oral tablet twice a day on Day 1 of 14 of every 3-week
    cycle
    o Paclitaxel - 80mg/m² IV infusion on Day 1, 8 and 15 of every 3-week cycle
    o Cetuximab 400 mg/m² loading dose followed by 250 mg/m² IV on Day 1, 8 and 15 of
    every 3-week cycle
    Arm 3: Lenvatinib monotherapy 24mg oral dosage daily.
    A single-arm futility analysis for the lenvatinib monotherapy arm will be conducted after
    30 participants have been randomized to lenvatinib monotherapy (Arm 3) and have been
    followed up for approximately 12 weeks after study entry. Randomization to this arm will
    be paused after the 30th participant is randomized. If the number of responses by BICR is
    ≥3, randomization to the lenvatinib monotherapy arm will be resumed such that a total of
    N=100 participants will be enrolled in this arm. If the number of responses is ≤2,
    randomization to the lenvatinib monotherapy arm will be permanently stopped. If the
    number of responses by BICR ≥3 is observed prior to the 30th participant, the
    randomization to the lenvatinib monotherapy arm will not be paused.
    Randomisation will be stratified according to the following factors:
    1. PD-L1 tumour expression as determined by PD-L1 immunohistochemistry (TPS <50%
    versus ≥50%)
    2. ECOG performance status (0 versus 1)
    STUDY PROCEDURES
    Screening
    Written consent must be obtained before performing any protocol-specific procedures.
    Results of a test performed before the participant signs the ICF as part of routine clinical
    management are acceptable in lieu of a screening test if performed within the specified
    time frame.
    Screening procedures are to be completed within approximately 28 days before the first
    dose of study intervention except for the following:
    o The following laboratory tests are to be performed within 7 days before the first dose of
    study intervention:
    - CBC with differential
    - Clinical Chemistry
    - Urine Dipstick testing
    - Urinalysis
    - INR or PT and aPTT or PTT
    - T3 or FT3, T4, TSH
    o ECOG performance status is to be evaluated within 7 days before the date of the first
    dose of study intervention.
    o A full physical examination is to be performed within 10 days before start of study
    intervention.
    o For WOCBP, a urine or serum pregnancy test will be performed within 24 hours before
    the first dose of study intervention. If urine pregnancy results cannot be confirmed as
    negative, a serum pregnancy test will be required (performed by the local trial site
    laboratory).
    o Tumour tissue sample collection is not required to be obtained within 28 days prior to
    randomization. Newly obtained tumour tissue may be obtained within 90 days of
    treatment initiation. Tumour specimen must be received by the central vendor before a
    participant is randomised. Repeat samples may be required if adequate tissue is not
    provided.
    o If additional time is needed for initial image submission and iCRO diagnostic quality
    review, an extension of the screening window of up to 7 days may be approved following
    mandatory Sponsor consultation.
    Participants may be re-screened after initially failing to meet inclusion/exclusion
    criteria. Results of assessments during the original screening period are acceptable in
    lieu of repeat screening tests if obtained within the specified time frame and the
    corresponding criteria are met. Re-screened participants will retain their original
    screening numbers.
    The following procedures may take place during the screening phase:
    • Informed Consent

    Treatment Period
    All eligible participants will be randomly allocated and will receive a
    treatment/randomisation number. Intervention randomisation will occur centrally using
    an interactive response technology (IRT) system. Participants will be assigned randomly
    in a 3:3:2 ratio to pembrolizumab + lenvatinib (arm 1), SOC chemotherapy (arm 2) or
    lenvatinib monotherapy (arm 3), respectively. Randomization will continue until the
    planned number of participants in each arm receive at least 1 dose of study medication.
