What participants receive

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

What is being measured

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

  1. To compare ZD1839 and vinorelbine in terms of progression free survival

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. To compare ZD1839 and vinorelbine in terms of pulmonary symptom improvement weekly for 18 weeks.

  2. To compare ZD1839 and vinorelbine in terms of quality of life 3 weekly for 18 weeks then 6 weekly.

  3. To compare ZD1839 and vinorelbine in terms of adverse event profile continuous monitoring.

  4. To compare ZD1839 and vinorelbine in terms of overall objective tumour response rate (complete response and partial response) 6 weekly to progression.

  5. To compare ZD1839 and vinorelbine in terms of overall survival (time to death) continuous monitoring

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Gefitinib and Vinorelbine in people with Non-Small-Cell Lung Carcinoma, run by AstraZeneca at 55 sites in 10 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 3 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 23 Apr 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 55 sites in Italy, Germany, Czechia, United Kingdom, Australia and 5 more countries. 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?

To compare ZD1839 and vinorelbine in terms of progression free survival. 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 NCT00256711, 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 23 Apr 2009.
