What is being measured

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

  1. To determine the recommended dosage of IMO-2055 when combined with erlotinib and bevacizumab in patients with AJCC stage 3 or 4 histologically proven non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

    Measured: Assessed on a weekly basis at patient visits.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. To evaluate the safety of weekly IMO-2055 combined with erlotinib plus bevacizumab using NCI CTCAE version 3.

    Measured: Assessed on a weekly basis at patient visits.

  2. To investigate potential drug-drug interactions via a PK study, specifically the effect of IMO-2055 on the PK of bevacizumab and the PK of erlotinib and also the effect of bevacizumab and erlotinib on the PK of IMO-2055.

    Measured: Assessed on a weekly basis at patient visits.

  3. To investigate potential signs of efficacy using RECIST response rate in measurable patients and PFS in all patients.

    Measured: Assessed every six weeks.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing IMO-2055 in people with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by EMD Serono at 9 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?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 40 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Oct 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 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 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.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

To determine the recommended dosage of IMO-2055 when combined with erlotinib and bevacizumab in patients with AJCC stage 3 or 4 histologically proven non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). (time frame: Assessed on a weekly basis at patient visits.). 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 NCT00633529, 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 22 Oct 2013.
