About this study

Official title: Phase I Study of the HDAC Inhibitor Vorinostat With Chemotherapy and Radiation Therapy for Treatment of Locally Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)

The purpose of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose of the combination of vorinostat, cisplatin, pemetrexed, and radiation therapy in patients with unresectable stage IIIA/IIIB non-small cell lung cancer.

Read the detailed description

This phase I trial will escalate doses of the histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDAC) vorinostat to a chemoradiation platform for cisplatin, pemetrexed and radiation to a dose of 70Gy in NSCLC patients with unresectable IIIA and dry IIIB disease. The endpoint will be to determine MTD of the combination.

What is being measured

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

  1. To assess that safety and maximally tolerated dose of vorinostat in combination with chemoradiation for unresectable locally advanced NSCLC.

    Measured: toxicity assessments will occur weekly

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. To investigate progression free survival.

    Measured: CT/PET scans will be done after 12 weeks of therapy and at 12 week intervals until documented progression

  2. To evaluate response rates with this combination

    Measured: CT/PET will be done following 12 weeks of therapy.

  3. To assess if pre-treatment tumor expression of TS, ERCC1 and HDAC1, 2, 3 are associated with response rate.

    Measured: Archival tissue will be tested and correlated to response rates.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing vorinostat in people with Locally Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Fox Chase Cancer Center at 3 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 6 inclusion and 8 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 27 Nov 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 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 assess that safety and maximally tolerated dose of vorinostat in combination with chemoradiation for unresectable locally advanced NSCLC. (time frame: toxicity assessments will occur weekly). 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 27 Nov 2019.
