What participants receive

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

  • Cetuximab + platinum + gemcitabineDrug

    Also called Erbitux

    Solution, IV, Cetuximab: 400mg/m2 on Day 1 then given weekly at 250mg/m2 starting on Day 8 + Gemcitabine given at 1250mg/m2 (Day 1 \& Day 8 of each cycle) + Cisplatin given at 75mg/m2 or Carboplatin AUC=5, Cycle of therapy is every 3 weeks. Cetuximab is given weekly, Maximum of 6 cycles (18 weeks) Cetuximab will be continued during the period following discontinuation of chemotherapy, until disease progression or cetuximab intolerance.

  • Platinum + GemcitabineDrug

    Solution, IV, Gemcitabine given at 1250mg/m2 (Day 1 \& Day 8 of each cycle) + Cisplatin given at 75mg/m2 or Carboplatin AUC=5, Cycle of therapy is every 3 weeks, Maximum of 6 cycles = 18 weeks.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Cetuximab + platinum + gemcitabine and Platinum + Gemcitabine in people with Non-Small-Cell Lung Carcinoma, run by Eli Lilly and Company at 38 sites in 2 countries.

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 5 inclusion and 8 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 28 Oct 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 38 sites in United States, Canada. 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?

tumor response per treatment arm. 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 28 Oct 2015.
