About this study

Official title: Evaluation of EGFR and K-ras Mutations in Patients With Stage III NSCLC Treated on CALGB 30106

RATIONALE: Collecting and storing samples of tissue from patients with cancer to study in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that may occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer.

PURPOSE: This laboratory study is looking at epidermal growth factor receptor mutations and k-ras oncogene mutations in patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine the frequency of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and K-ras mutations in patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated on CALGB 30106.
  • Correlate presence or absence of EGFR and/or K-ras mutations with radiographic response to treatment in these patients.

OUTLINE: Tissue samples are analyzed for epidermal growth factor receptor and K-ras mutations.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lung Cancer, run by Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology.

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 5 inclusion and 1 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 29 Jun 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

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?

Overall survival (time frame: Up to 3 years). 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 29 Jun 2016.
