What is being measured

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

  1. Progression-free Survival Rate at Four Months (PFS4)

    The rate estimate of the percentage of patients who are alive and progression-free at 16 weeks (~4 months) after randomization. Progession disease was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. The appearance of one or more new lesions was also considered progression.

    Measured: At month four after patient inclusion

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Progression-free Survival

    PFS, progression-free survival Progression-free survival (PFS), defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of PD, death (of any cause), or last tumor evaluation. Progession disease was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. The appearance of one or more new lesions was also considered progression.

    Measured: Time from the date of randomization to the date of PD, death (of any cause), or last tumor evaluation, whichever came first, assessed up to 3 years

  2. Progression-free Survival Rate at Six Months (PFS6)

    The rate estimate of the percentage of patients who are alive and progression-free at 24 weeks (~6 months) after randomization. Progession disease was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. The appearance of one or more new lesions was also considered progression.

    Measured: At month six after patient inclusion

  3. Overall Response Rate

    Overall response rate (ORR) was defined as the percentage of patients with a response, either CR or PR, according to RECIST v.1.1.

    Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to < 10 mm.

    Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters.

    Measured: Time from the date of randomization until 30±7 days after the last treatment infusion, assessed up to 3 years

  4. Objective Response Per RECIST v.1.1

    RECIST, Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Complete Response (CR) Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes must have reduction in short axis to <10mm Partial Response (PR) At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum diameters Progressive Disease (PD) At least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions taking as reference the smallest sum on study. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5mm. Appearance of new lesions was considered PD Stable Disease (SD) Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD taking as reference the smallest sum diameters while on study Treatment failure (TF) Symptomatic deterioration/death due to progression or treatment discontinuation due to treatment-related toxicity occurred before any appropriate tumor assessments had been performed

    Measured: Time from the date of randomization until 30±7 days after the last treatment infusion, assessed up to 3 years

  5. Duration of Response

    Duration of response (DR) was defined as the time from the date when the response criteria (PR or CR, whichever was reached first) were fulfilled, to the first date when PD, recurrence or death was documented.

    Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to < 10 mm.

    Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters.

    Measured: The time from the date when the response criteria (PR or CR, whichever was reached first) were fulfilled, to the first date when PD, recurrence or death was documented, up to 3 years

  6. Overall Survival (OS)

    Overall survival (OS) will be defined as time from the date of first infusion to the date of death or last contact

    Measured: From the date of first infusion to the date of death or last contact, up to 12 months after last patient inclusion

  7. Information on Quality of Life (QoL)

    The mean QoL scores self-reported by patients using the Lung Cancer Symptom Scale (LCSS) at baseline and after the start of the therapy in visits 3 or 6 (+/- 1 visit) and visit 9 for those patients in maintenance therapy.

    Higher LCSS scores indicate more severe problems and the scale range is (0-100) Total score was calculated as the mean of the total scores of all nine patient ítems (Appetite, Fatigue, Cough, Dyspnea, Hemoptysis, Pain, Lung cancer symptoms, Normal activities, Global QoL)

    Measured: Baseline, Cycle 3 (~9 weeks), Cycle 6 (~18 weeks) and Cycle 9 (~27 weeks)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Docetaxel, Gemcitabine and Lurbinectedin (PM01183) in people with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC), run by PharmaMar at 1 site 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 7 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 24 Sep 2019. 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 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 24 Sep 2019). 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?

Progression-free Survival Rate at Four Months (PFS4) (time frame: At month four after patient inclusion). 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 24 Sep 2019.
