A Phase I/II Study of the Selective Inhibitor of Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) NVL 655 in Patients with Advanced NSCLC and Other Solid Tumors (ALKOVE-1)
Summary description of the study
This clinical study is being conducted to investigate the effects of NVL-655. The study consists of two parts: Phase I and Phase II. It will take place at approximately 70 study centers around the world with about 840 participants (approximately 70 in the first part of Phase I and 70 in the second part of Phase I) and up to 700 participants in Phase II. Approximately 8 participants are expected to receive NVL-655 in Switzerland. The main purpose of Phase I of this study is to determine: • Which dose of NVL-655 is safe and tolerable? • Side effects associated with NVL-655 • How much NVL-655 enters the bloodstream and how long it takes for the body to eliminate it (investigated through blood samples)? • The effect of NVL-655 on your tumor (tumor imaging). The main purpose of Phase II of this study is to determine: • Whether NVL-655 is effective in shrinking tumors, and if so, how long the response to NVL-655 lasts. • Further insights regarding side effects associated with NVL-655 • How much NVL-655 enters the bloodstream and how long it takes for the body to eliminate NVL-655.

Intervention under investigation
Phase 1: Dose escalation 15-200 mg/qd. Dose escalation includes patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors that have an ALK rearrangement or an activating mutation. Phase 2: This part of the study will include 6 cohorts. The dosing will be adjusted as deemed appropriate for testing in the Phase 2 part (per cohort) of the study by the investigators and the sponsor, per patient.

Disease under investigation
Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer and Other Solid Tumors
(BASEC)
Histologically or cytologically confirmed locally advanced or metastatic solid tumor with a documented ALK rearrangement or an activating ALK mutation. Patients whose disease is refractory or resistant to available therapies for their respective malignancy or for whom current therapy is unlikely to provide benefit. There must be measurable disease defined as ≥1 radiologically measurable target lesion according to RECIST 1.1. (BASEC)
Exclusion criteria
The patient's cancer has another known oncogenic driver alteration other than ALK. Major surgery within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of the study drug. Uncontrolled clinically significant bacterial or fungal infection requiring systemic therapy. The patient has CNS metastases or a primary CNS tumor associated with progressive neurological symptoms or requiring increasing doses of corticosteroids to control CNS disease. (BASEC)
