This study examined the combination of Bemcentinib and Erlotinib in patients with stage IIIb or IV non-small cell lung cancer. It enrolled patients with histologically or cytologically confirmed disease and good general condition (ECOG 0-1). It was a Phase 1/Phase 2 study and has been completed.
The summary above is a plain-language rendering of the official record. The original English title is shown for reference.
Criteria are reproduced from the ClinicalTrials.gov record in the original English. Only the trial team can determine eligibility.
General Criteria
1. Provision of written informed consent to participate in this investigational study.
2. Histological or cytological confirmation of Stage IIIb or Stage IV (unresectable) NSCLC.
3. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0 or 1.

Male participants and female participants of reproductive potential must agree to practice highly effective methods of contraception (such as hormonal implants, combined oral contraceptives, injectable contraceptives, intrauterine device with hormone spirals, total sexual abstinence, vasectomy) throughout the study and for ≥ 3 months after the last dose of bemcentinib.

16. Participants must have completed afatinib and/or gefitinib treatment at least 1 week before the first dose of bemcentinib.
17. Toxicity from other prior therapy has resolved to ≤ Grade 1 (previous treatment with bevacizumab and other licensed antibody therapies is permitted).
18. Participants who have an activating EGFR mutation may have up to 4 lines of previous treatment in the advanced setting. Additional chemotherapy may also have been given for treatment of limited stage disease in the adjuvant setting provided this was completed at least 6 months prior to study treatment.

23. Have erlotinib-related toxicities that are well controlled and \<Grade 3 in severity the time of the first dose of bemcentinib (Cycle 1, Day 1).
24. No prior treatment for advanced NSCLC except erlotinib and/or previous surgery (participants who have received treatment for their NSCLC while awaiting confirmation of EGFR status, may be eligible to participate and the inclusion of such participants should be discussed with the Medical Monitor).
