About this study

Official title: Phase II Trial of Single Agent ZD1839 (Iressa) in Poor Performance Status Patients With Previously Untreated Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Because of the demonstrated single agent activity and excellent tolerability in patients with refractory non-small cell lung cancer, ZD1839 may be of benefit in the first-line treatment of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer who have poor performance status. In this phase II trial, we will investigate the single agent activity of first-line ZD1839 in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer with poor performance status

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing ZD1839 in people with Lung Cancer, run by SCRI Development Innovations, LLC.

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 9 inclusion and 7 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 3 May 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Overall response rate. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00193336, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 3 May 2011.
