About this study

Official title: A Phase III, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Multi-center Clinical Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Toripalimab Injection (JS001) or Placebo Combined With First-line Standard Chemotherapy in Treatment-naive Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)

This is one randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center, phase III clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Toripalimab injection (JS001) or placebo combined with standard 1st-line chemotherapy in treatment-naïve advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC); and evaluate the population with the best predictive biomarkers, i.e., positive diagnosis population.

About 450 subjects with advanced non-small cell lung cancer without activated EGFR mutation (exon 19 deletion, or exon 21 L858R, exon 21 L861Q, exon 18 G719X or exon 20 S768I mutations) and ALK fusion will be 2:1 randomized into two groups, JS001 combined with the standard 1st-line chemotherapy will be given in the study group whereas placebo combined with standard 1st-line chemotherapy will be given in the control group. The stratification will be based on the following factors:

PD-L1 expression (TC≥1% vs TC<1%); Smoking state (often smoking vs no smoking or infrequent smoking); Pathological type (squamous cell carcinoma vs non-squamous cell carcinoma).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing TORIPALIMAB INJECTION (JS001 ) combine with chemotherapy in people with Treatment-naive Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Shanghai Junshi Bioscience 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 4 inclusion and 18 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 1 Feb 2023. 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. 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 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 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?

PFS (time frame: Up to 2 approximately years). 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 NCT03856411, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 1 Feb 2023.
