About this study

Official title: Cetuximab (C225) and Radiation in Elderly and /or Poor Performance Status Patients With Locally Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Phase II Study to Evaluate Survival and Toxicity

RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as cetuximab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Cetuximab may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving cetuximab together with radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving cetuximab together with radiation therapy works in treating patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Determine the 11 month survival rate in older and/or poor performance status patients with stage IIIA or stage IIIB non-small cell lung cancer treated with cetuximab and radiotherapy.

Secondary

  • Determine the tumor response rate, overall survival, and time to disease progression in patients treated with this regimen.
  • Determine the toxicity of this regimen in these patients.
  • Determine whether fear of death is less severe in the oldest of patients treated with this regimen.
  • Determine whether fear of death predicts survival of patients treated with this regimen.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients receive cetuximab IV over 1-2 hours on days 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, 36, and 43. Beginning on day 8, patients receive concurrent radiotherapy once daily on days 8-12, 15-19, 22-26, 29-33, 36-40, and 43-47. Treatment continues in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed within 1 week, at 1 and 4 months, and then every 3 months for up to 3 years.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 60 patients will be accrued for this study within 20 months

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. 11-month Survival Rate

    Eleven-month survival was chosen as the survival endpoint in this trial because it represents an improvement over the median survival that is observed with radiation alone. 11-month survival will be considered synonymous with "success", unless specified otherwise. The proportion of successes will be estimated by the number of successes divided by the total number of evaluable patients. All evaluable patients will be followed from the time of protocol enrollment until death or a minimum of 11 months.

    Measured: From baseline to 11 months.

Secondary outcomes (3)

  1. Survival Time

    Survival time is defined as the time from registration to death due to any cause. The distribution of survival time will be estimated using the method of Kaplan-Meier.

    Measured: From baseline to up to 3 years

  2. Time to Disease Progression

    Time to disease progression is defined as the time from registration to documentation of disease progression. If a patient dies without a documentation of disease progression, the patient will be considered to have had tumor progression at the time of their death unless there is sufficient documented evidence to conclude no progression occurred prior to death.

    Measured: From Baseline to up to 3 years

  3. Tumor Response (Complete and Partial)

    A confirmed tumor response is defined to be a Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) noted as the objective status on 2 consecutive evaluations at least 3 months apart. All patients meeting the eligibility criteria who have signed a consent form and have begun treatment will be evaluable for response.

    Measured: Baseline, 1 month and 4 months after completion of treatment and then every 3 months until Progressive Disease (PD) or up to a maximum of 3 years from registration

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing cetuximab and radiation therapy in people with Lung Cancer, run by Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology at 175 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Jul 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 175 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 17 Mar 2015). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

11-month Survival Rate (time frame: From baseline to 11 months.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00124618, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Jul 2016.
