About this study

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label, single-arm, Phase I/II trial to determine the safety of RAD001 in combination with docetaxel and compare the efficacy of RAD001 plus docetaxel versus published Phase II and III reports of docetaxel alone in patients with recurrent NSCLC.

New agents and regimens are urgently needed for lung cancer treatment. With the development of novel agents and small molecules designed to curtail the aggressive aspects of this disease, some progress has been realized. However, much more effort and insight will be required for further real gains to be made. We propose that studying the mTOR axis, known to be abnormal in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and translating that knowledge into therapeutic adjustments can lead to meaningful advances in lung cancer treatment.

Approximately 58 patients will participate at Emory Winship Cancer Institute and Emory Crawford W. Long Hospital in Atlanta, Georgia.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Subjects Showing Partial Response and Stable Disease With the Combination of RAD001 and Docetaxel.

    Partial response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of LD.

    Stable Disease (SD): Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for Progressive disease (PD), taking as reference the smallest sum Longest diameter(LD) since treatment started.

    Measured: 6 weeks

  2. Time to Progression:Time Period (in Months) From Study Entry Until Disease Progression, Death, or Last Date of Contact.

    Period from study entry until disease progression, death, or last date of contact.

    Progressive Disease: Appearance of one or more new lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing RAD001 and Docetaxel in people with Lung Cancer, run by Emory University at 1 site 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?

The sponsor lists 11 inclusion and 13 exclusion criteria. 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Aug 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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 28 May 2012). 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?

Number of Subjects Showing Partial Response and Stable Disease With the Combination of RAD001 and Docetaxel. (time frame: 6 weeks). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 23 Aug 2013; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
