About this study
Official title: A Single-Arm, Open-Label, Phase II Trial Evaluating the Efficacy, Safety and Pharmacokinetics of Antroquinonol in Patients With Stage IV (Including Pleural Effusion) Non Squamous NSCLC Who Have Failed Two Lines of Anti-Cancer Therapy
This is a single arm, open label, Phase II study in KRAS-positive and KRAS-negative patients with stage IV (including pleural effusion) non squamous NSCLC who have failed two lines of anti-cancer therapy. A maximum of 60 evaluable patients with NSCLC will receive antroquinonol, of which 30 patients will be KRAS-positive and 30 patients KRAS-negative. An evaluable patient will have received at least one dose of antroquinonol and have a valid baseline tumor assessment. Enrollment will continue until the target number of evaluable patients has been enrolled.
Read the detailed description
- Progression free survival rate at 12 weeks, defined as the proportion of patients alive and progression free at Week 12. Patients will be progression free if they have no tumor assessments of progressive disease (defined according to RECIST guidelines, version 1.1) at any point from the start of treatment to Week 12.
- Objective response rate (ORR), defined as the proportion of patients whose best overall response is either CR or PR according to RECIST version 1.1. The best overall response is the best response recorded during the first 12 week treatment cycle.
- Disease control rate (DCR), defined as the proportion of patients with a documented CR, PR and SD during the first 12 week treatment cycle according to RECIST version 1.1.
- Duration of overall tumor response (DR), defined as the interval between the date of the first observation of tumor response (CR or PR) and the date of disease progression or death.
- Progression free survival defined as the time from randomization to objective tumor progression by RECIST version 1.1 or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.
- Overall survival (OS) defined as the time from randomization to death from any cause.
- Time to progression (TTP) defined as the time from randomization to objective tumor progression by RECIST version 1.1.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Progression Free Survival Rate
Tumor response will be assessed at 6 week intervals during the first treatment cycle using the RECIST criteria, version 1.1. Each patient will be assigned one of the following categories: 1) complete response (CR), 2) partial response (PR), 3) stable disease (SD), or 4) progressive disease (PD). Patients who died from any cause or discontinued the study for any reason without a post screening or Week 12 tumor assessment will be considered as failing to respond to treatment.
Measured: 12 weeks
Secondary outcomes (3)
Cmax
PK sampling will be performed on Days 0 and 28 in all patients enrolled in Stage 1.PK endpoints will be derived for intensively sampled PK profiles by non compartmental methods and include: Cmax: peak concentration;Ctrough: trough plasma concentration.
Measured: 8 hours
Disease Control Rate (DCR)
the proportion of patients with a documented CR, PR and SD during the first 12 week treatment cycle according to RECIST version 1.1.
Measured: 12 weeks
T½: the Time Required for a Quantity to Reduce to Half Its Initial Value
PK sampling will be performed on Days 0 and 28 in all patients enrolled in Stage 1.PK endpoints will be derived for intensively sampled PK profiles by T½: terminal half life
Measured: 8 hours

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Antroquinonol in people with Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Stage IV, run by Golden Biotechnology Corporation at 10 sites in 2 countries.
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 14 inclusion and 13 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 26 Dec 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 10 sites in United States, Taiwan. 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 26 Dec 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 (time frame: 12 weeks). 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 26 Dec 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
