Brief Title: Phase II Study of VS-6063 in Patients With KRAS Mutant Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Official Title: Phase II Study of VS-6063, A Focal Adhesion Kinase (FAK) Inhibitor, in Patients With KRAS Mutant Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Study ID: NCT01951690
Brief Summary: This is a Phase II, open-label, multicenter, multi cohort, study of VS-6063 (defactinib), a focal adhesion kinase inhibitor, in patients with KRAS mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). NSCLC with a KRAS mutation is required for study entry and subjects will be enrolled into 1 of 4 cohorts based on the status of their INK4a/Arf and p53 mutations. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate if VS-6063 (defactinib) improves PFS within each cohort. The safety and tolerability of VS-6063, tumor response rate, progression free survival and overall survival will also be assessed. The pharmacodynamic effects of VS-6063 (defactinib) will be examined in a tumor biopsy and a blood sample.
Detailed Description: Eleven subjects will be enrolled into one of four cohorts: Cohort A (KRAS mutation, wild type INK4a/ARF and wildtype p53), Cohort B (KRAS mutation, INK4s/ARF mutation and wild type p53), Cohort C (KRAS mutation, wild type INK4a/ARF and p53 mutation), and Cohort D (KRAS mutation, INK4a/ARF mutation and p53 mutation). If \>/= 4 patients demonstrate PFS at 12 weeks in each cohort, an additional 23 subjects will be enrolled.
