About this study
Official title: Phase 2 Study of Pemetrexed and Cisplatin as Induction, Followed by Pemetrexed and Cisplatin With Concurrent Thoracic Radiotherapy, in Patients With Unresectable, Locally Advanced, Stage III, Nonsquamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
This trial investigates pemetrexed and cisplatin followed by pemetrexed and cisplatin in combination with radiotherapy in participants with locally advanced, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The purpose of the study is to assess the antitumor activity as measured by progression free survival 1 year after start of treatment with study drug.
Read the detailed description
The participants will receive 2 cycles of pemetrexed and cisplatin. If the participants achieve complete response, partial response or stable disease as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) guidelines, have ≤35% of the total calculated lung volume receive more than 20 Gy (V20) according to the 3-dimensional (3-D) radiotherapy planning Dose Volume Histograms, have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1, have no residual neurological toxicity > Grade 2 according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), they will receive 2 additional cycles of pemetrexed and cisplatin, combined with radiotherapy. The combination of radiotherapy will begin 22 to 36 days after completion of the second infusion of induction therapy with pemetrexed-cisplatin.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
PemetrexedDrug
Also called Alimta, LY231514
500 milligrams per square meter (mg/m²) intravenous infusion on Day 1 of a 21 day cycle for 2 cycles: with possibility of 2 additional cycles.
CisplatinDrug
75 mg/m² intravenous infusion on Day 1 of a 21 day cycle for 2 cycles; with the possibility of 2 additional cycles.
Thoracic RadiotherapyRadiation
Administered at 2 gray (Gy)/fraction after completion of the pemetrexed and cisplatin infusions on Day 1 of Cycle 3 and will continue daily (5 days per week) until the total delivered dose reaches a therapeutic goal of 66 Gy, over approximately 7 weeks.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Pemetrexed | Experimental | Pemetrexed and cisplatin are given as induction therapy followed after by pemetrexed and cisplatin with concurrent radiotherapy. Receives: Drug: Pemetrexed; Drug: Cisplatin; Radiation: Thoracic Radiotherapy |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
1 Year Progression Free Survival
Progression free survival (PFS) was defined as the time from study enrollment to the first observation of progressive disease (PD) or death from any cause. For participants not known to have died as of the data cut-off date and who did not have objective PD, PFS was censored at the date of the last objective progression-free disease assessment. For participants who received subsequent systemic anticancer therapy (after discontinuation from the study drug) prior to objectively determined PD or death, PFS was censored at the date of the last objective progression-free disease assessment prior to start of postdiscontinuation chemotherapy. If a participant did not have a complete baseline disease assessment, then PFS was censored at the enrollment date, regardless whether or not objectively determined PD or death had been observed for the participant.
Measured: Date of first dose to date of objectively determined PD or death [every cycle up to 4 cycles and then every 3 months up to 1 year (1 cycle=21 days)]
Secondary outcomes (2)
Overall Survival
Overall survival (OS) was the duration from enrollment to death due to any cause. Participants who were alive were censored at the last contact.
Measured: Date of first dose to date of death (up to 35.4 months)
Number of Participants With an Objective Tumor Response
Participants with confirmed complete response (CR), confirmed partial response (PR), stable disease (SD), or progressive disease (PD) according to Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST, version 1.0) criteria, as well as participants with a not evaluable/tumor response unknown. CR: disappearance of all tumor lesions. PR: either a) at least a 30% decrease in sum of longest diameter (LD) of target lesions taking as a reference baseline sum LDs, or b) complete disappearance of target lesions, with persistence (not worsening) of 1 or more nontarget lesions. In either case, no new lesions appeared. SD: small changes that did not meet above criteria. PD: at least a 20% increase in sum of LD of target lesions taking as reference smallest sum LD recorded since treatment started or appearance of 1 or more new lesions. Participants who discontinued study treatment (for reasons other than progression) before entering concurrent phase were considered to have non-evaluable response.
Measured: Date of first dose through end of follow-up [up to 30 weeks (1 cycle=21 days)]

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Pemetrexed, Cisplatin and Thoracic Radiotherapy in people with Non Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Eli Lilly and Company at 21 sites in 4 countries.
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 14 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 2 Apr 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 21 sites in Italy, France, Germany, Spain. 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 1 Jan 2014). 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?
1 Year Progression Free Survival (time frame: Date of first dose to date of objectively determined PD or death [every cycle up to 4 cycles and then every 3 months up to 1 year (1 cycle=21 days)]). 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 2 Apr 2014.
