About this study

Official title: A Single Center, Open Label, Dose-Finding Study to Determine the Safety of Icotinib in Combination With Whole Brain Radiation Therapy For NSCLC Patients With Brain Metastases and EGFR Mutation.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of Icotinib at different dose levels in combination with whole brain radiotherapy for NSCLC patients with brain metastases and EGFR mutation.

Read the detailed description

The long-term control of brain metastases becomes a clinical challenge. Whole brain radiotherapy, the standard treatment for patients with multiple brain metastases, can only bring a modest survival improvement around 3-6 months. EGFR-TKIs like icotinib with its proven activity in non-small cell lung cancer may provide clinical benefits in such patients.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing icotinib and Whole brain radiotherapy in people with Non-small Cell Lung Cancer and Brain Metastases, run by Betta Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. at 1 site in China.

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 3 inclusion and 2 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 17 Feb 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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 combined 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.

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?

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?

Safety and tolerability (time frame: 6-12 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 17 Feb 2014.
