Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Recurrent or progressive Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) stage IV or IIIB patients after chemotherapy following gefitinib failure
  • Male and female patients aged over 18 years
  • World Health Organization (WHO) performance status 0-2 (those with performance status 2 must have been stable with no deterioration over the previous 2 weeks)
  • Had at least stable disease with previous Gefitinib treatment
  • Had at least one anticancer agent therapy after gefitinib failure ;Following treatment with another epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs)- erlotinib or other TKIs should not be included in anticancer agent therapy.
  • The current approved indication of Gefitinib is 2nd or 3rd line monotherapy for recurrent or metastatic NSCLC. However, in practice with off-label indication, it can also be used as a 1st line treatment at the patient's own expenses. Thus, in this trial gefitinib retreatment will be 3rd line or more.

  • Measurable lesion according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors(RECIST) with at least one measurable lesion not previously irradiated, unless disease progression has been documented at that site.
  • Provision of written informed consent
  • Life expectancy of at least 12 weeks

Who cannot join

  • Evidence of clinically active Interstitial Lung Diseases (Patients with chronic, stable, radiographic changes who are asymptomatic need not be excluded)
  • Expected life expectancy less than 2 months
  • Known severe hypersensitivity to gefitinib or any of the excipients of this product
  • Any unresolved chronic toxicity greater that Common Terminology Criteria (CTC) grade 2 from previous anticancer therapy
  • As judged by the investigator, any evidence of severe or uncontrolled systemic disease (e.g. unstable or uncompensated respiratory, cardiac, hepatic, or renal disease)
  • Serum bilirubin greater than 3 times the upper limit of reference range (ULRR)
Show all 10Show fewer
  • Aspartate aminotransferase (AST/SGOT) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT/SGPT) ≥ 2.5 x Upper Limit Normal (ULN) if no demonstrable liver metastases (or >5 x in presence of liver metastases)
  • Evidence of any other significant clinical disorder or laboratory finding that makes it undesirable for the subject to participate in the study
  • Pregnancy or breast-feeding women (women of child¬bearing potential). Women of childbearing potential must practice acceptable methods of birth control to prevent pregnancy.
  • Newly diagnosed central nervous system (CNS) metastases that have not yet been treated with surgery and/or radiation. Patients with previously diagnosed and treated CNS metastases or spinal cord compression may be considered if they have evidence of clinically stable disease (no steroid therapy or steroid dose being tapered) for at least 2 weeks

What is being measured

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

  1. Disease Control(DC) Rate of Gefitinib Retreatment Per RECIST Criteria (V1.1) and Assessed by CT

    Evaluation of treatment response by computed tomography (CT) was performed after the first 4 weeks according to version 1.1 of the guidelines set out by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Committee. Disease control rate (DCR) was defined as the percentage sum of best tumor response of complete response (CR), partial response (PR), and stable disease (SD).

    Measured: 8 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Progression - Free Survival of Patients Retreated With Gefitinib

    Progression is defined, using RECIST (V1.1), as a measurable increase in the smallest dimension of any target or non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions, since baseline using CT scan every 8 weeks.

    Measured: two year

  2. Overall Survival

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Gefitinib retreatment in people with Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung, run by Chonnam National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 9 inclusion and 10 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 26 Feb 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 South Korea. 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 26 Feb 2013). 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?

Disease Control(DC) Rate of Gefitinib Retreatment Per RECIST Criteria (V1.1) and Assessed by CT (time frame: 8 weeks). 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 NCT00824746, 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 26 Feb 2013.
