About this study

Official title: Phase II Study of Pemetrexed + Cetuximab + Cisplatin With Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy in Stage III Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)

Radiochemotherapy is a standard for the treatment of unresectable stage III non-small cell lung cancer. The investigators goal is to study the efficacy and the toxicity for a promising association of new agents (cetuximab and pemetrexed) with concurrent radiotherapy.

Being tested
Chemotherapy, ERBITUX, Radiotherapy
Medical subject headings
Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • ChemotherapyDrug

    Pemetrexed 500 mg/m², D1 (D1=D22, 4 cycles) Cisplatin 75 mg/m², D1 (D1=D22, 4 cycles)

  • ERBITUXDrug

    The initial dose of cetuximab (ERBITUX) is 400 mg/m² intravenously administered over 120 minutes, followed by 11 weekly infusions at 250 mg/m² IV over 60 minutes

  • RadiotherapyRadiation

    66 Gy (2 Gy by fraction, 5 fractions by week)

What is being measured

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

  1. Disease-Control Rate

    percentage of patients with disease control (complete response + partial response + stable disease) according to RECIST 1.1 criteria Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions.

    Stable Disease (SD): Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for partial response nor sufficient increase to qualify for Progressive Disease (at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions).

    Measured: 16 weeks after inclusion

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. 18-month Overall Survival Rate

    Percentage of patient alive 18 months after registration

    Measured: 18 months

  2. Progression Free Survival

    Progression-free survival is defined as time between date of inclusion and progression or all-cause death.

    Progression is defined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.1), as a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions.

    Measured: 52.3 months (median duration of follow-up)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Chemotherapy, ERBITUX and Radiotherapy in people with Stage III Non-small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Intergroupe Francophone de Cancerologie Thoracique at 38 sites in France.

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 4 inclusion and 4 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 16 Feb 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 38 sites in France. 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 16 Feb 2021). 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 Rate (time frame: 16 weeks after inclusion). 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 NCT01102231, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 16 Feb 2021.
