PHASE 3, RANDOMIZED, OPEN-LABEL STUDY OF THE EFFICACY AND SAFETY OF CRIZOTINIB VERSUS PEMETREXED/CISPLATIN OR PEMETREXED/CARBOPLATIN IN PREVIOUSLY UNTREATED EAST ASIAN PATIENTS WITH NON-SQUAMOUS CARCINOMA OF THE LUNG HARBORING A TRANSLOCATION OR INVERSION EVENT INVOLVING THE ANAPLASTIC LYMPHOMA KINASE (ALK) GENE LOCUS
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating Crizotinib, Pemetrexed/Cisplatin, and 1 other intervention for NSCLC (Non-small Cell Lung Cancer). Completed, enrolled 207 participants across 47 sites in 5 countries.
Detailed Summary
This is a Phase III, Randomized, Open-label, Efficacy and Safety Study of Crizotinib single agent versus Chemotherapy Regimens (Pemetrexed/Cisplatin or Pemetrexed/Carboplatin) in First-Line ALK (Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase) Positive East Asian Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients. The objective of the study is to demonstrate that Crizotinib is superior to first-line chemotherapy pemetrexed/cisplatin or pemetrexed/carboplatin in prolonging Progression Free Survival (PFS) in East Asian patients with advanced Non-Squamous NSCLC whose tumors harbor a translocation or inversion event involving the ALK (Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase) gene locus.

Interventions
250 mg two times daily \[BID\], oral, on a continuous daily dosing schedule. Cycles are defined in 21 day periods.
Option 1: Pemetrexed/Cisplatin; Pemetrexed, 500 mg/m\^2, will be administered by intravenous infusion over 10 minutes or according to institutional administration timing on Day 1 of a 21-day cycle. Cisplatin, 75 mg/m\^2 will be administered by infusion after adequate hydration according to institutional practices beginning approximately 30 minutes after the end of the pemetrexed infusion. Pemetrexed and cisplatin will be repeated every 3 weeks for a maximum of 6 cycles.
Option 2: Pemetrexed/Carboplatin. Pemetrexed, 500 mg/m\^2, will be administered by intravenous infusion over 10 minutes or according to institutional administration timing on Day 1 of a 21-day cycle. Carboplatin, at a dose calculated to produce an AUC of 5 or 6 mg.min/mL will be administered by infusion according to institutional practices beginning approximately 30 minutes after the end of the pemetrexed infusion. Pemetrexed and carboplatin will be repeated every 3 weeks for a maximum of 6 cycles.
