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

Who may be able to join

  • Age ≥18 years.
  • Histologically confirmed non-squamous NSCLC (squamous cell histology is ineligible). Cytologic specimens obtained by brushings, washings or needle aspiration of the defined lesion are acceptable. Sputum cytology alone is not acceptable. Mixed tumors with small cell elements are not eligible.

About this study

Official title: A Phase II Trial of Carboplatin, Pemetrexed, and Panitumumab in Patients With Advanced Non-Squamous K-ras Wild Type Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer

The purpose of this multicenter, Phase II trial is to examine the role of a well-tolerated novel agent, panitumumab, in combination with a modern platinum doublet regimen using carboplatin and pemetrexed, in patients with advanced non-squamous wild type K-ras non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). If this treatment proves to be well tolerated and associated with efficacy, this would provide rationale for further randomized studies.

What is being measured

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

  1. Median Time to Progression (TTP)

    Defined as the time between Day 1-Cycle 1 and date of first documented disease progression assessed using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECISTS) v1.1.

    Measured: 18 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Median Progression-free Survival (PFS)

    Defined as the time between Day 1-Cycle 1 and date of first documented disease progression or death.

    Measured: Assessments by clinical evaluation, radiographic status, and date of disease progression, estimated 18 months

  2. Median Overall Survival (OS)

    Defined as the time between Day 1-Cycle 1 to the date of death from any cause.

    Measured: 18 months

  3. Objective Response Rate

    Measured: Projected 18 months

  4. Frequency of Adverse Events and Severity as a Measure of Toxicity

    Assessed using NCI CTCAE v4.0

    Measured: Every 3 weeks (1 cycle) for 6 cycles, then every 7 weeks thereafter

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Carboplatin, Pemetrexed and Panitumumab in people with Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer, run by SCRI Development Innovations, LLC at 13 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 28 inclusion and 11 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 11 May 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 13 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 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 15 Apr 2016). 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?

Median Time to Progression (TTP) (time frame: 18 months). 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 11 May 2016.
