What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • icotinibDrug

    Also called Commana

    Three dose levels of icotinib are designed to be evaluated, 125 mg three times per day, 250 mg three times per day, and 375 mg three times per day. Dose escalations are based on predefined dose escalation decision rules. The Maximum Administered Dose (MAD) was reached at the dose level when at least 30% patients developed a dose limited toxicity.

  • GemcitabineDrug

    Also called Gemzar

    Gemcitabine: 1000 mg/m2 on Days 1, 8, and 15 of a 28 day cycle by IV administration every 4 weeks.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing icotinib and Gemcitabine in people with Pancreatic Cancer, 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 5 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Jul 2015. 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Tingbo Liang, MD (0086-13666676128, liangtingbo@zju.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The number of patients who suffer adverse events (time frame: 24 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 15 Jul 2015.
