Study of Capmatinib Efficacy in Comparison With Docetaxel in Previously Treated Participants With Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Harboring MET Exon 14 Skipping Mutation

Twenty-two patients with advanced or metastatic lung cancer, with these specific mutations in the MET gene but without changes in their epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) or anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) genes, were enrolled in this study. Participants were randomly assigned to get either capmatinib or docetaxel in a 2 to 1 ratio. The randomization was stratified by prior lines of systemic therapy received for advanced/metastatic disease (one line vs. two lines). During treatment, visits were scheduled every 21 days. For all participants, the respective treatment (either with capmatinib or docetaxel) could be continued beyond initial disease progression as per RECIST 1.1 (as assessed by the investigator and confirmed by BIRC) if, in the judgment of the investigator, there was evidence of clinical benefit, and the participant wished to continue on the study treatment. After treatment discontinuation, all participants were followed for safety evaluations during the safety follow-up period, and the participant's status was collected every 12 weeks as part of the survival follow-up. Participants randomized to docetaxel treatment were eligible to cross over to receive capmatinib treatment after BIRC-confirmed, RECIST 1.1-defined progressive disease and after meeting the eligibility criteria prior to crossover. This was the extension treatment phase.
