About this study

Official title: Phase II Study of the Raf Kinase Inhibitor BAY43-9006 in Patients With Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

This phase II trial is studying how well sorafenib works in treating patients with stage IIIB or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. Sorafenib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It may also stop the growth of non-small cell lung cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Determine the response rate in patients with stage IIIB or IV non-small cell lung cancer treated with sorafenib.

II. Determine the clinical toxic effects of this drug in these patients.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Determine the 24-week progression-free survival rate in patients treated with this drug.

II. Determine the overall survival of patients treated with this drug. III. Determine the time to disease progression in patients treated with this drug.

IV. Correlate predictive disease markers (K-ras and B-raf mutations and ERK/pERK, AKT/pAKT, and VEGFR2/p-VEGFR2 expression) in these patients with the activity of this drug.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients receive oral sorafenib twice daily on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients are followed every 6 months for up to 5 years.

Being tested
sorafenib tosylate, laboratory biomarker analysis

What is being measured

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

  1. Confirmed tumor response according to RECIST criteria

    The proportion of successes will be estimated by the number of successes divided by the total number of evaluable patients. Confidence intervals for the true success proportion will be calculated using the Duffy-Santner approach.

    Measured: Up to 5 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Progression-free survival

    The proportion of patients who are progression-free at 24-weeks will be computed and binomial confidence intervals for the true success proportion will be calculated.

    Measured: At 24 weeks

  2. Survival time

    Estimated using the method of Kaplan-Meier.

    Measured: From registration to death due to any cause, assessed up to 5 years

  3. Time-to-disease progression

    Estimated using the method of Kaplan-Meier.

    Measured: From registration to documentation of disease progression, assessed up to 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing sorafenib tosylate and laboratory biomarker analysis in people with Recurrent Non-small Cell Lung Cancer and Stage IIIB Non-small Cell Lung Cancer, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) 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 50 inclusion and 0 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Dec 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?

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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Confirmed tumor response according to RECIST criteria (time frame: Up to 5 years). 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 29 Dec 2016.
