Trial summary

Metastasis is the leading cause of death in patients with lung cancer, and circulating tumor cells(CTCs) play a key role in the process of distant metastasis. The investigators' study will elaborate the clinical significance of CTCs intervented by Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM) in lung cancer from the diagnosis and… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Study on the"Fuzheng"Therapy Promoted Immune Reconstitution to Improve the Survival of Early-stage Lung Cancer After Surgical Operation

Metastasis is the leading cause of death in patients with lung cancer, and circulating tumor cells(CTCs) play a key role in the process of distant metastasis. The investigators' study will elaborate the clinical significance of CTCs intervented by Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM) in lung cancer from the diagnosis and clinical staging,metastasis and recurrence, individual treatment and prognosis and so on, in order to provide a new direction for the treatment of lung cancer.

Read the detailed description

Metastasis is the leading cause of death in patients with lung cancer, and circulating tumor cells play a key role in the process of distant metastasis.In recent years, research results have shown that CTCs may become a emerging marker and new target in the treatment of lung cancer. The investigators' study will elaborate the clinical significance of CTCs intervented by TCM in lung cancer from the diagnosis and clinical staging,metastasis and recurrence, individual treatment and prognosis and so on, in order to provide a new direction for the treatment of lung cancer.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression-Free Survival

    It is decided by a doctor via the clinical examinations

    Measured: The progression disease is assessed based on CT or PET-CT every six months from date of randomization and the endpoints is the date of first documented progression or date of death due to lung cancer,assessed up to Two years.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Circulating Tumor Cell

    It is decided by a doctor via the clinical examinations

    Measured: 24months

  2. Overall survival

    It is decided by a doctor via the clinical examinations

    Measured: Two years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing JinFuKang, Cisplatin and Pemetrexed in people with Non-small Cell Lung Cancer(NSCLC), run by Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

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 5 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 20 Sep 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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 (time frame: The progression disease is assessed based on CT or PET-CT every six months from date of randomization and the endpoints is the date of first documented progression or date of death due to lung cancer,assessed up to Two years.). 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 20 Sep 2019.
