About this study

Determine whether patients have a decreased incidence of grade 3 and grade 4 neutropenia when Filgrastim-SD/01 is given with docetaxel and gemcitabine in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer.

Read the detailed description

Docetaxel and Gemcitabine given on day 1 and 8 of a 21-day schedule has substantial activity in non-small cell lung cancer. Both first and second-line patients have response rates comparable to or better than other standard combination regimens. Grade 3/4 neutropenia occurs in up to half of patients not given growth factor support.

Studies demonstrate that a single dose of Filgrastim-SF/01 at 100 mg/kg effectively enhances post chemotherapy neutrophil recovery in a manner similar to that of daily Filgrastim. This current study is designed to characterize the incidence of grade 3/4 neutropenia when a fixed dose of Filgrastim-SD/01 is added to a well-studied myelosuppressive chemotherapy regimen consisting of Gemcitabine and Docetaxel.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Filgrastim-SD/01 in people with Non-small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Schwartzberg, Lee, M.D. at 2 sites 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?

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 27 Dec 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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?

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.

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 27 Dec 2012.
