About this study

Official title: Phase II Clinical Study of Hydroxychloroquine Combined With Gemcitabine in the Treatment of Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of hydroxychloroquine (600mgBID) combined with gemcitabine (1000mg/m2,d1,8) in the third-line and above treatment of advanced NSCLC.

Read the detailed description

This study is a single-arm, open phase II prospective cohort study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of hydroxychloroquine (600mgBID) combined with gemcitabine in the treatment of advanced NSCLC patients with third-line and above treatment. After signing informed consent, the subjects were screened and eligible for inclusion in this study.

All enrolled subjects will be treated with (hydroxychloroquine 600mgBID) plus gemcitabine, and each patient will continue to receive the study drug until the end of the treatment cycle. The efficacy index and safety index were observed during the treatment.

  1. Hydroxychloroquine sulfate tablets: twice a day, each time (600mg). Continuous oral administration. Until the disease progresses or becomes intolerable.
  2. gemcitabine was administered intravenously at a dose of 1000mg/m2 for 30min,d1, 8, and every 3 weeks (21 days) until disease progression or intolerable toxicity, with a maximum duration of 2 years.

What is being measured

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

  1. Objective response rate(ORR)

    The proportion of patients whose tumor volume reduction reaches the predetermined value and can maintain the minimum time limit is the sum of the proportion of complete and partial remission.

    Measured: 1years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Disease control rate(DCR)

    The percentage of patients with PR + Cr and SD after treatment in the number of evaluable cases, and the RECIST standard is at least 4 weeks

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Progression-free survival(PFS)

    The time between initiation of the study drug and the first recorded date of disease progression (PD) or death, depending on which occurred first. If no disease progression is observed, the cutoff date should be the date of the last tumor measurement.

    Measured: 2 years

  3. Overall survival(OS)

    The time from the beginning of treatment to (for any reason) death. The last follow-up time is usually calculated as the time of death for the subjects who have lost the visit before death

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Hydroxychloroquine Combined With Gemcitabine in people with Hydroxychloroquine and Gemcitabine, run by Henan Cancer Hospital.

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 18 inclusion and 10 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 12 Dec 2022. 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. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Objective response rate(ORR) (time frame: 1years). 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 12 Dec 2022.
