Docetaxel in Treating Patients With Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
A Phase 3 study testing docetaxel and quality-of-life assessment in people with Lung Cancer, run by Istituto Nazionale per lo Studio e la Cura dei Tumori at 16 sites in Italy.
Trial summary
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. It is not yet known which chemotherapy regimen is more effective in treating non-small cell lung cancer. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Docetaxel In Second-Line Treatment Of Advanced Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer - The Distal Study
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. It is not yet known which chemotherapy regimen is more effective in treating non-small cell lung cancer.
PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare two different docetaxel regimens in treating patients who have stage IIIB or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer.
Read the detailed description
OBJECTIVES:
- Compare the quality of life of patients with stage IIIB or IV non-small cell lung cancer treated with 2 different schedules of docetaxel as second-line therapy.
- Compare the toxicity of these regimens in these patients.
- Compare the response rate, time to progression, and survival of these patients treated with these regimens.
OUTLINE: This is a randomized, multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to center, ECOG performance status (0 vs 1 vs 2), response to prior chemotherapy (partial or complete response vs stable disease vs progressive disease), and prior cisplatin-containing chemotherapy regimen (yes vs no). Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.
- Arm I: Patients receive docetaxel IV on day 1. Treatment continues every 3 weeks for a maximum of 6 courses.
- Arm II: Patients receive docetaxel IV weekly for 6 weeks. Treatment continues every 8 weeks for a maximum of 2 courses.
Quality of life is assessed at baseline and days 22 and 43-56 for arm I, and at baseline and days 22 and 43 for arm II.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 200 patients will be accrued for this study.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing docetaxel and quality-of-life assessment in people with Lung Cancer, run by Istituto Nazionale per lo Studio e la Cura dei Tumori at 16 sites in Italy.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
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 18 Dec 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 16 sites in Italy. 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 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?
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?
Quality of life. The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT00022022, which also lists 2 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 18 Dec 2013.
