About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Randomized, Phase III Trial of Chemotherapy Followed by 6-month or 12-month Icotinib Versus Chemotherapy as Adjuvant Therapy in Stage IIA-IIIA Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Harboring Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Mutation

The purpose of this study is studying icotinib following chemotherapy to see how well it works compared to chemotherapy in treating patients with resected stage IIA-IIIA NSCLC harboring EGFR mutation.

Read the detailed description

Adjuvant chemotherapy is recommended for routine use in patients with fully resected stage IIA-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) show great efficacy in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with EGFR mutation. Icotinib is a novel EGFR-TKI developed by a group of Chinese scientists. In the phase III ICOGEN trial, icotinib had non-inferiority efficacy to gefitinib with better safety. In phase II trial, chemotherapy followed by 6-month gefitinib as adjuvant therapy can confer longer disease-free survival compared with chemotherapy alone in patients with resected stage IIIA-N2 non-small cell lung cancer harboring EGFR mutations. This study is to studying 6-month or 12-month icotinib following chemotherapy to see how well it works compared to chemotherapy in treating patients with resected stage IIA-IIIA NSCLC harboring EGFR mutation.

What is being measured

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

  1. Disease-Free Survival

    Disease-free survival was assessed from randomization to disease recurrence or death as a result of any cause.

    Measured: 5 years after the last patient is randomized

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Overall Survival

    Overall survival was assessed from randomization to death as a result of any cause.

    Measured: 5 years after the last patient is randomized

  2. Number of Participants with Adverse Events

    To assess if the addition of icotinib to chemotherapy is safe.

    Measured: 2 years

  3. Change from baseline in patient reported Lung Cancer Functional Assessment

    Quality of life as measured by the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - Lung Cancer (FACT-L) questionnaire.

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing 6-month Icotinib and 12-month icotinib in people with Lung Cancer, run by Sun Yat-sen University 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 11 inclusion and 11 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 5 Sep 2024. 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 phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 was stopped early (reason given: Slow accural.). Results are not available in the source record.

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-Free Survival (time frame: 5 years after the last patient is randomized). 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 NCT01996098, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 5 Sep 2024.
