DETERMINE Trial Treatment Arm 01: Alectinib in Adult, Paediatric and Teenage/Young Adult Patients With ALK Positive Cancers

Exclusion Criteria21

• A. Diagnosis of ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer.
• B. Female patients who are pregnant, breastfeeding or planning to become pregnant during the trial or for three months following their last dose of alectinib.
• C. Prior treatment with the same class of drug unless genetic profile demonstrates a mechanism of resistance known to be potentially sensitive to alectinib. Patients who have previously received crizotinib (Xalkori\^\[®\]) and did not respond, or who responded inadequately or responded adequately and subsequently progressed, are allowed into the trial.
• D. History of or radiological evidence of interstitial lung disease and/or pneumonitis. Prior localised radiotherapy related pneumonitis is permitted if resolved and off steroids and asymptomatic for \>6 months.
• E. Patients at risk of gastrointestinal (GI) perforation e.g. history of diverticulitis, concomitant use of medicinal product with a recognized risk of GI perforation (unless patient has also been co-prescribed gastric protection).
• • Patients who present with a GI primary tumour or metastases to the GI tract may be considered.
• F. Patient unable to swallow or tolerate oral medication or any GI disorder that may affect absorption of oral medications, such as malabsorption syndrome or following major bowel resection. Paediatric patients will be excluded if they are unable to swallow the capsules, as per the dosing schedule (150 mg dose strength).
• G. Patients with clinically significant pre-existing cardiac conditions, including uncontrolled or symptomatic angina, uncontrolled atrial or ventricular arrhythmias (within three months), or New York Heart Association (NYHA) class III or IV congestive heart failure.
• Patients with a cerebrovascular event (including stroke or transient ischaemic attack \[TIA\]), or cardiovascular event (including acute myocardial infarction \[MI\]), within three months before the first dose of alectinib.
• • Patients with primary CNS tumours may be considered unless intra-tumoural bleeding has occurred within 2 weeks of the first dose of alectinib, and patients with punctate CNS haemorrhages \<3 mm may be considered.
• H. History of organ transplantation.
• I. Symptomatic bradycardia for age.
• J. Known hypersensitivity to alectinib or any of the excipients. See the current alectinib (Alecensa® 150 mg hard capsules) SmPC for the full list.
• K. Patients who were administered a live, attenuated vaccine within 28 days prior to enrolment, or anticipation of need for such a vaccine during alectinib treatment or within six months after the final dose of alectinib.
• L. Active hepatitis B or C virus or known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positivity or acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) related illness. Patients with history of testing positive for HIV infection are eligible provided the each of the following conditions are met:
• CD4 count ≥350/μL;
• undetectable viral load;
• receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART) that does not interact with IMP (patients should be on established ART for at least four weeks); and
• no HIV/AIDS-associated opportunistic infection in the last 12 months.
• M. Familial or personal history of congenital bone disorders, bone metabolism alterations or known osteopenia in the patient.
• N. Any clinically significant concomitant disease or condition (or its treatment) that could interfere with the conduct of the trial or absorption of oral medications or that would, in the opinion of the Investigator, pose an unacceptable risk to the patient in this trial.
