CRUK STRATIFIED
MEDICINE 1- THE PAST
CRUK Stratified Medicine Programme (Phase 1) – In a Nutshell
• Collaborative initiative to undertake large volume genetic testing within the UK
• Test approximately 9000 patients across the UK over a 2 year programme (2011-2013)
• Almost 40,000 gene tests • 10,754 patients consented • 9,010 samples sent for testing • 26 feeder hospitals • 8 clinical hubs • 6 tumour types • 3 technology hubs • 1 network
CRUK Stratified Medicine Programme (Phase 1) – Key Metrics
Poor quality Sample
Increased test failures
Increased test repeats
Increased TAT
Decreased mutation
rate
Artefacts
Sample Quality is Critical

MEDICINE 2
5 Key Approaches & the Stratified Medicine Programme 2
• Build our understanding of cancer
• Facilitate a major shift in early diagnosis research
• Tackle cancers with substantial unmet need
• Accelerate the translation of research
• Develop the cancer research leaders of tomorrow
CRUK Research Strategy (May 2014)
CRUK Stratified Medicine Programme 2 (SMP2) – Tackle cancers with substantial unmet need
Routine Therapeutic Intervention – everyone gets the same
CRUK Stratified Medicine Programme 2 (SMP2) – Accelerate the translation of research
A few patients selected for a specific Biomarker:
e.g. EGFR / ALK

CRUK Stratified Medicine Programme 2 (SMP2) – CRUK Stratified Therapy
“NATIONAL SCREENING TO NATIONAL TRIALS”
• A truly differentiated National stratified medicine programme
• Change the UK landscape for delivery of stratified medicine
• Large volume molecular pre-screening (build on SMP1)
• National Matrix Trial to deliver the right drugs to the right place for the right patient
• The programme is future proof: • amenable to new drugs
• amenable to new technologies
• potential for new indications and combination strategies
CRUK Stratified Medicine Programme 2 (SMP2)
• Combined investment >£20M by current funding partners • Up to 14 AZ/Pfizer drugs

CRUK Stratified Medicine Programme 2 (SMP2) – Molecular Pre-Screening
• Extensive review chose as the panel provider
• Nextera Rapid Capture enrichment used for NGS panel
• Multiple types of genetic aberration: • Single Nucelotide Variants (SNV) • Insertions & deletions (Indel) • Copy number variations (CNV) • DNA rearrangements
• Genes for analysis can be revised
CRUK Stratified Medicine Programme 2 (SMP2) – Molecular Pre-Screening NGS Panel
• A national study open at all ECMCs • Each ECMC can act as a hub for surrounding hospitals
• One clinical trial protocol and regulatory submission • Diagnostic samples will be required to enable
molecular pre-screening prior to clinical trial entry • Repeat biopsy will be offered to patients at relapse • Biopsy will also be taken (where possible) post
therapy to compare molecular characterisation pre and post therapy
CRUK Stratified Medicine Programme 2 (SMP2) – The National Matrix Trial
• Chief Investigator: Gary Middleton
• Clinical Trial Unit: Birmingham
• Chair of the Trial Management Group: Sanjay Popat

CRUK Stratified Medicine Programme 2 (SMP2) – All Centres have access to All Arms
• SMP2 will change the way we develop stratified medicines within the UK and provide greater options for patients with lung cancer
• The programme will be a National effort across the entire CRUK ECMC network and beyond
• A model utilising shared pre-screening provides benefits for patients, Sponsors and pharmaceutical companies
