  • The following must be completed within 28 days of registration: CT scan of the chest and upper abdomen to include the adrenals. Mediastinoscopy to document ipsilateral nodal involvement and exclude N3 disease Blood tests, and pulmonary function tests The following must be completed within 2 months of registration: Pet scan If a CT PET is done more than 28 days, only the CT needs to be repeated and a bone scan to rule out bone metastases

Who cannot join

  • No prior chemotherapy or radiation for NSCLC
  • No prior malignancy is allowed except for adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer, in situ cervical cancer, or other cancer from which the patient has been disease-free for at least five years. If patient is suspected or known to have basal or squamous skin cancer, this maybe treated after induction chemotherapy is completed at the time of thoracotomy.

About this study

Official title: Phase II Randomized Open-Label Trial of the EGFR Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor OSI-774 (Tarceva™) in Combination With Paclitaxel and Carboplatin Prior to Surgery in Resectable Stage IIIA (N2) and IIIB (T4 N2) NSCLC: A Clinical Outcome and Biological Endpoint Trial

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn about the safety and effectiveness of OSI-774 when combined with standard chemotherapy (carboplatin and paclitaxel) before surgery in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer.

Read the detailed description

This is a phase II, single institution open label randomized trial of induction carboplatin and paclitaxel plus/minus daily oral OSI-774 in patients with potentially resectable NSCLC that is stage IIIA and IIIB (T4 satellite nodules or invasion into T4 structures but no malignant effusion.) N3 disease is excluded. Patients will be required to have pathologically demonstrated N2 disease via mediastinoscopy. Forty patients will be treated with 3 courses of chemotherapy followed by surgery. Ten of these patients will be randomized to chemotherapy alone and 30 patients to chemotherapy plus OSI-774. The 10 patients will serve as a chemotherapy alone control for molecular endpoint analysis. OSI-774 will be stopped the night before surgery. At the time of surgery, pathologic response will be determined. Following surgery, patients will be treated with consolidation radiation therapy if there are positive margins or N2 lymph nodes at the time of resection. Patients who have no N2 disease at surgery will have the option of consolidation radiation therapy but will not be required to have it done. Patients not able to tolerate radiation even if they have N2 disease or positive margins at surgery may continue on this study. This will be followed by maintenance OSI-774 for patients from both arms of the study. OSI-774 will be continued as maintenance to a maximum of 2 years following surgery. Tissue for molecular studies will be obtained pretreatment either at the time of diagnostic biopsy or mediastinoscopy. Post-treatment tissue will be obtained at the time of surgery. This tissue will be assayed for defined molecular endpoints using immunohistochemistry, immunoprecipitation and mRNA expression analysis. Blood, urine, hair follicles, and skin samples will also be collected from patients who consent to provide these.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Tarceva (OSI-774)Drug

    Also called Tarceva

    150 mg/day, starting day 1 and stopping night prior to surgery.

  • PaclitaxelDrug

    Also called Taxol

    Planned dose of 200 mg/m^2 continuous IV infusion over 3 hours on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle.

  • CarboplatinDrug

    Dose of AUC = 6 mg/ml × min began within 60 minutes following completion of paclitaxel infusion, infused over 15-30 minutes on Day 1 of Cycle 1 of each 21-day cycle, and then on Day 1 of each subsequent cycle according to institutional standards.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Patients With Response

    Response defined by tumor assessment using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) to learn effectiveness of Tarceva (OSI-774) when combined with standard chemotherapy before surgery.

    Measured: 5 Years to collect outcome information

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Tarceva (OSI-774), Paclitaxel and Carboplatin in people with Lung Cancer, run by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center 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 10 inclusion and 4 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 9 May 2016. 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 3 Jun 2011). 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?

Number of Patients With Response (time frame: 5 Years to collect outcome information). 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 9 May 2016.
