About this study

Official title: Adaptive-Dose to Mediastinum With Immunotherapy (Durvalumab MEDI4736) and Radiation in Locally-Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

This phase II trial studies two questions in patients with stage III NSCLC: 1) does it improve cancer control to add the drug Durvalumab, a type of immunotherapy, earlier in the treatment course; and 2) by intensifying treatment with durvalumab, is it possible to avoid mediastinal radiation to decrease side effects, without decreasing cancer control?

Read the detailed description

OUTLINE:

Patients will receive platinum doublet chemotherapy per standard of care with durvalumab for 8 weeks, concurrent with a short course of radiation to the primary lung tumor. Patients will then undergo repeat evaluation of the mediastinal lymph nodes. If there is no cancer in the lymph nodes, patients will receive 2 years of adjuvant durvalumab. If there is still cancer in the lymph nodes, patients will receive 6 weeks of radiation to the mediastinal lymph nodes, and 2 years of adjuvant durvalumab.

After the completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 12 months.

Being tested
Cisplatin, Durvalumab, Etoposide, Hypofractionated Radiation Therapy, Pemetrexed

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Treatment (chemotherapy, durvalumab, radiation therapy)ExperimentalPatients with squamous cell cancer receive standard of care chemotherapy consisting of cisplatin on days 1, 8, 29, and 36, and etoposide on days 1-5 and 29-33. Cycles repeat every 4 weeks for up to 2 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients with non-squamous cell cancer receive standard of care chemotherapy consisting of cisplatin and pemetrexed on days 1, 22, and 43. Cycles repeat every 3 weeks for up to 3 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. All patients receive durvalumab IV over 1 hour Q4W. Radiation to the primary tumor will be given over 8-15 fractions during weeks 1-3 of chemotherapy. For patients who have residual disease in the mediastinal lymph nodes at week 9, radiation will be given to the lymph nodes starting week 11. Durvalumab is given for 2 years after completion of radiation in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

What is being measured

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

  1. 1 Year Progression-free Survival Rate (PFS)

    Will be evaluated using the method of Kaplan-Meier. Confidence intervals for median times will be determined using the Brookmeyer-Crowley method. Confidence intervals around landmark times will be determined using Greenwood's formula for the variance and based on a log-log transformation applied on the survival function. Binary proportions will be calculated with associated confidence intervals for binary outcomes, such as response. Means and/or medians will be calculated for continuous outcomes. Confidence bounds will be provided for means and quartiles and ranges for median values. All confidence bounds will be presented as 95% bounds.

    Measured: Study enrollment to disease progression or death, whichever occurs first, for up to 1 year

Secondary outcomes (4)

  1. Frequency and Severity of Pneumonitis

    The primary toxicity of interest is grade 3 or higher pneumonitis. The incidence of grade 3 or worse pneumonitis attributable to treatment will be evaluated and compared against the PACIFIC trial results. All toxicities of all grades will be monitored on study and reported. Binary proportions will be calculated with associated confidence intervals for binary outcomes, such as toxicity.

    Measured: Through study completion (up to 4 months)

  2. Overall Survival (OS)

    Will be evaluated using the method of Kaplan-Meier. Confidence intervals for median times will be determined using the Brookmeyer-Crowley method. Confidence intervals around landmark times will be determined using Greenwood's formula for the variance and based on a log-log transformation applied on the survival function. Binary proportions will be calculated with associated confidence intervals for binary outcomes, such as response. Means and/or medians will be calculated for continuous outcomes. Confidence bounds will be provided for means and quartiles and ranges for median values. All confidence bounds will be presented as 95% bounds.

    Measured: From study registration to death due to any cause

  3. Response Rate

    Will be evaluated using the method of Kaplan-Meier. Confidence intervals for median times will be determined using the Brookmeyer-Crowley method. Confidence intervals around landmark times will be determined using Greenwood's formula for the variance and based on a log-log transformation applied on the survival function. Binary proportions will be calculated with associated confidence intervals for binary outcomes, such as response. Means and/or medians will be calculated for continuous outcomes. Confidence bounds will be provided for means and quartiles and ranges for median values. All confidence bounds will be presented as 95% bounds.

    Measured: Through study completion (up to 4 months)

  4. Frequency of Adverse Events

    Frequency and severity of toxicities will be graded with Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), version 5. Toxicities will be summarized as the proportion of patients with such toxicities, in addition to total number of toxicities (allowing for multiple toxicities within a patient) among all patients. All toxicities of all grades will be monitored on study and reported. Binary proportions will be calculated with associated confidence intervals for binary outcomes, such as toxicity.

    Measured: Through study completion (up to 4 months)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Cisplatin, Durvalumab and Etoposide in people with Locally Advanced Lung Non-Small Cell Carcinoma and Stage III Lung Cancer AJCC v8, run by University of Washington 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 21 inclusion and 25 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Jun 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 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 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 13 Jun 2023). 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?

1 Year Progression-free Survival Rate (PFS) (time frame: Study enrollment to disease progression or death, whichever occurs first, for up to 1 year). 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 NCT04372927.

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 13 Jun 2023.
