Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 100 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Stage IV squamous cell lung cancer, with no prior systemic chemotherapy.
  • Patients who have received prior adjuvant chemotherapy for early-stage lung cancer are eligible if at least 6 months have elapsed from completion of that treatment.
  • Patients whose tumors contain mixed non-small cell histologies are eligible if squamous carcinoma is the predominant histology. Mixed tumors with small cell anaplastic elements are not eligible.
  • Patient must have measurable disease per RECIST 1.1 (defined in section 9.1.2).
  • Patients with previous radiotherapy as definitive therapy for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer are eligible, as long as the recurrence is outside the original radiation therapy port. Radiation therapy must have been completed greater than or equal to 2 weeks prior to enroll in this study.
  • Age greater than or equal to 18 years. Because no dosing or adverse event data are currently available on the use of itraconazole or SUBATM-itraconazole in combination with gemcitabine/cisplatin in patients under 18 years of age, such patients are excluded from this study. Squamous cell lung cancer is exceedingly rare in children.
Show all 11Show fewer
  • Life expectancy of at least 12 weeks.
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status 0 - 1.
  • Patients must have adequate organ and marrow function.
  • Women of child-bearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry and for the duration of study participation. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately.
  • Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document.

Who cannot join

  • Prior treatment with gemcitabine, cisplatin (except in the adjuvant setting), itraconazole or SUBATM-itraconazole.
  • Uncontrolled brain metastases. Patients with brain metastases must have stable neurologic status following local therapy (surgery or radiation) for at least 2 weeks, and must be without neurologic dysfunction that would confound the evaluation of neurologic and other adverse events.
  • History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to itraconazole, SUBATM-itraconazole, gemcitabine, cisplatin or other agents used in the study.
  • Itraconazole is a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor and may increase plasma concentrations of drugs metabolized by this pathway. Co-administration of cisapride, midazolam, pimozide, quinidine, lovastatin, simvastatin, triazolam, dofetilide, or levacetylmethadol (levomethadyl) with SUBATM-itraconazole or itraconazole is contraindicated.
  • Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
  • Pregnant women are excluded from this study because itraconazole is Class C agent and both gemcitabine and cisplatin are Class D agents, with the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects. Because there is an unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with SUBATM-itraconazole and gemcitabine/cisplatin, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is to be treated on this protocol.
  • HIV-positive patients on combination antiretroviral therapy are ineligible because of the potential for pharmacokinetic interactions with SUBATM-itraconazole, gemcitabine, or cisplatin with these essential mediations.
  • Medical contra-indication to MRI (e.g. gadolinium allergy, or severe claustrophobia).

What is being measured

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

  1. Objective Response Rates

    Per response evaluation criteria in solid tumors criteria

    Measured: 6 weeks

  2. Tumor Blood Flow.

    To assess the changes in tumor blood flow as measured by contrast enhanced MRI scanning in patients with metastatic squamous non-small cell lung cancer treated with cisplatin and gemcitabine with or without SUBATM-itraconazole.

    Measured: 6 weeks.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Median Time to Progression

    To determine the median time to progression and median duration of survival of patients with metastatic squamous non-small cell lung cancer treated with cisplatin and gemcitabine with or without SUBATM-itraconazole.

    Measured: 2 years.

  2. Adverse Effects

    To characterize the adverse effects of cisplatin and gemcitabine with or without SUBATM-itraconazole in this patient population.

    Measured: 2 years.

  3. Itraconazole Exposure Parameters

    To correlate itraconazole exposure parameters with median time to progression and median survival in this patient population.

    Measured: 2 years.

  4. Tumor Necrosis

    To assess changes in tumor necrosis in response to cisplatin and gemcitabine with or without SUBATM-itraconazole.

    Measured: 2 years.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Cisplatin + Gemcitabine with SUBATM-itraconazole and Cisplatin + Gemcitabine in people with Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Metastatic, run by Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins at 2 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 11 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Oct 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 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 2 Jun 2017). 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?

Objective Response Rates (time frame: 6 weeks). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 Oct 2018.
