A Phase II Trial of Concurrent Chemoradiation With Consolidation Pembrolizumab for the Treatment of Inoperable or Unresectable Stage III Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC): HCRN LUN14-179

This is an open label, multi-institutional, single arm phase II trial of consolidation
therapy with pembrolizumab, following initial treatment with concurrent chemoradiation in
patients with inoperable or unresectable stage IIIA or IIIB NSCLC. No randomization or
blinding is involved.

OUTLINE: This is a multi-center study.

Eligible patients must have completed concurrent chemoradiation with a standard chemotherapy
regimen (either cisplatin/etoposide or carboplatin/paclitaxel) and a dose of radiation
ranging from 59.4-66.6Gy, with restaging completed 28 days to 56 days post-chemoradiation.
Patients with progressive disease will not be eligible for investigational treatment.
Patients with stable disease/response will be eligible to register for investigational
treatment of consolidation therapy to begin a minimum of 28 days and a maximum of 56 days
from completion of chemoradiotherapy.

INVESTIGATIONAL TREATMENT:

Pembrolizumab, 200 mg IV every 3 weeks (until progressive disease (PD), unacceptable
toxicity, or after 12 months (52 weeks) of therapy with pembrolizumab.

Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1.

Hematopoietic:

- Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1,500/mcL

- Platelets ≥100,000/mcL

- Hemoglobin ≥9 g/dL or ≥5.6 mmol/L

Renal:

- Serum creatinine OR measured or calculated creatinine clearance ≤1.5 X institutional
upper limit of normal (ULN) OR ≥60 mL/min for subject with creatinine levels > 1.5 X
institutional ULN (glomerular filtration rate (GFR) can also be used in place of
creatinine or CrCl)

Hepatic:

- Serum total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 X institutional ULN OR direct bilirubin ≤ ULN for subjects
with total bilirubin levels > 1.5 institutional ULN

- Aspartate transaminase (AST), serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT), alanine
transaminase (ALT), serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase (SGPT) ≤ 2.5 X institutional ULN

Coagulation:

- International Normalized Ratio (INR) or Prothrombin Time (PT) ≤1.5 X institutional ULN
unless subject is receiving anticoagulant therapy as long as PT/INR/PTT is within
therapeutic range of intended use of anticoagulants.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Histological or cytological evidence of NSCLC

- Must have unresectable or inoperable stage IIIA or IIIB disease. Patients are
considered unresectable or inoperable based on the judgment of the treating physician

- Must have completed concurrent chemoradiation with a standard chemotherapy regimen
(either cisplatin/etoposide or carboplatin/paclitaxel) and a dose of radiation ranging
from 59.4-66.6Gy

- Must have stable disease or disease response as evidenced on CT evaluation a minimum
of 28 days and a maximum of 56 days following the completion of chemoradiation

- Women of childbearing potential must be willing to use two methods of contraception or
abstain from heterosexual activity from the point of registration through 120 days
after the last dose of study drug

- Male subjects of childbearing potential must agree to use an adequate method of
contraception starting with the first dose of the study drug through 120 days after
the last dose of the study drug

- Age ≥ 18 years at the time of consent

- Written informed consent and HIPAA authorization for release of personal health
information

Exclusion Criteria:

- Pregnant or breastfeeding, or expecting to conceive or father children within the
projected duration of the trial, starting with the pre-screening or screening visit
through 120 days after the last dose of trial treatment

- Active central nervous system (CNS) metastases. Subjects must undergo a head computed
tomography (CT) scan or brain MRI within 28 days prior to registration for protocol
therapy to exclude brain metastases if symptomatic or without prior brain imaging

- Treatment with any investigational agent within 28 days prior to registration for
protocol therapy

- Prior chemotherapy, adjuvant therapy, or radiotherapy for lung cancer, other than
standard concurrent chemoradiation as described above

- Prior therapy with a PD-1, PD-L1, or CTLA-4 inhibitor or a lung cancer-specific
vaccine therapy

- Presence of metastatic disease (stage IV NSCLC) is not allowed. Subjects must be
evaluated with a PET scan within 28 days prior to registration for protocol therapy to
exclude metastatic disease

- No active second cancers

- Evidence of active autoimmune disease requiring systemic treatment within the past 90
days or a documented history of clinically severe autoimmune disease, or a syndrome
that requires systemic steroids or immunosuppressive agents. Subjects with vitiligo or
resolved childhood asthma/atopy would be an exception to this rule. Subjects that
require intermittent use of bronchodilators or local steroid injections would not be
excluded from the study. Subjects with hypothyroidism stable on hormone replacement or
Sjogren's syndrome will not be excluded from the study

- Interstitial lung disease or history of pneumonitis requiring treatment with
corticosteroids

- Diagnosis of immunodeficiency or is receiving chronic systemic corticosteroid therapy
or other immunosuppressive therapy (excludes inhaled corticosteroids) within 7 days of
first dose of study drug

- History of psychiatric illness or social situations that would limit compliance with
study requirements

- Clinically active infection as judged by the treating investigator (≥ Grade 2 by CTCAE
v4) including known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection or chronic hepatitis
B or C

- Has a history or current evidence of any condition, therapy, or laboratory abnormality
that might confound the results of the trial, interfere with the subject's
participation for the full duration of the trial, or is not in the best interest of
the subject to participate, in the opinion of the treating investigator
