Artemis: A Multicenter, Open-Label, Single-Arm, Phase II Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of First-Line Carboplatin/Paclitaxel/Lenvatinib/Pembrolizumab Combination for Previously Untreated Advanced or Recurrent Thymic Carcinomas.
Clinical Lung Cancer 2024 Februrary 9
BACKGROUND: Thymic carcinoma is a rare cancer with an aggressive clinical presentation and no organotypic symptoms. Despite using platinum-based chemotherapy as first-line treatment, the prognosis remains poor, necessitating a novel therapeutic strategy.
METHODS: The artemis trial is a Phase II, single-arm, multicenter study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of carboplatin, paclitaxel, lenvatinib, and pembrolizumab as first-line chemotherapy for patients with advanced or recurrent thymic carcinoma. A total of 35 patients will be enrolled in this study and will receive induction therapy every 3 weeks for up to 4 cycles, followed by pembrolizumab every 3 weeks, and daily lenvatinib as maintenance therapy for up to 31 cycles (for 2 years). Lenvatinib will be continued until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity based on the discretion of the attending physician.
CONCLUSION: The primary endpoint of the study is the objective response rate, with secondary endpoints including progression-free survival, overall survival, duration of response, disease control rate, and safety profile.
