About this study

Official title: Phase 2 Study Of The MEK Inhibitor PD-0325901 In Patients With Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

MEK is a critical member of the MAPK pathway involved in growth and survival of cancer cells. PD-325901 is a new drug designed to block this pathway and kill cancer cells. The purpose of this study is to study the effectiveness of PD-325901 in patients with non-small cell lung cancer. PD-325901 will be given by mouth as a pill twice a day, CT scans will be done and biopsies of a tumor and a blood sample will be taken before treatment to examine the how genes affect tumor response to the study medication. Blood samples will be taken to measure the amount of drug in the blood.

Read the detailed description

This study was terminated prematurely on 23 March 2007 due to safety issues (ocular and neurological toxicity observed in another PD-0325901 study, A4581001) as well as lack of objective responses

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing PD-0325901 in people with Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung, run by Pfizer at 14 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?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 5 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 17 Mar 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 14 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 was stopped early (reason given: Terminated \[See Detailed Description for Termination Reason.\]). 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?

To determine the activity of PD-0325901 in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (time frame: Duration of trial). 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 17 Mar 2009.
