What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of Afatinib (BIBW 2992) in Combination With Dasatinib

    The MTD for this combined treatment will be defined as either:

    1. The highest dosage cohort in which six patients had been treated and there were less than two dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) or,
    2. Afatinib at the highest tolerated dose investigated (40 mg by mouth [PO] daily) plus dasatinib at the highest tolerated dose investigated (cohort 3, 140 mg PO daily).

    Measured: Up to 6 Months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of Participants With Objective Response

    Estimates objective response rate (complete response [CR] and partial response [PR]) in participants with acquired EGFR resistance

    Measured: Up to 6 Months

  2. Median Progression Free Survival

    Estimate the 6-month progression free survival (PFS) rate in participants with acquired EGFR resistance. Response Criteria for Phase 1B will follow RECIST v.1.1: Progressive Disease (PD) is defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of LD of target lesions taking as references the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions.

    Measured: Up to 6 Months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Dasatinib - 1A, Afatinib - 1A and Dasatinib - 1B in people with Lung Cancer and Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC), run by H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute 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 11 inclusion and 23 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 27 Nov 2020. 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 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.

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 14 Jun 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?

Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of Afatinib (BIBW 2992) in Combination With Dasatinib (time frame: Up to 6 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 27 Nov 2020.
