What participants receive

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

  • docetaxel and cisplatinDrug

    Docetaxel (75 mg/m2, IV, Day 1) and cisplatin (40 mg/m2, IV, Day 1, 2) every 3 weeks for 2 cycles, followed by concurrent chemo-radiotherapy with docetaxel (20 mg/m2, IV) and cisplatin (20 mg/m2) weekly for 6 weeks + radiotherapy 2 Gy/day, 5 days per week to a total dose of 66 Gy.

  • radiotherapyRadiation

    Docetaxel (20 mg/m2, IV) and cisplatin (20 mg/m2) weekly for 6 weeks + radiotherapy 2 Gy/day, 5 days per week to a total dose of 66 Gy followed by docetaxel (75 mg/m2, IV, Day 1) and cisplatin (40 mg/m2, IV, Day 1, 2) every 3 weeks for 2 cycles.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing docetaxel and cisplatin and radiotherapy in people with Non-Small-Cell Lung Carcinoma, run by Sanofi at 1 site in France.

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 28 inclusion and 27 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 23 Dec 2009. 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 France. 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. 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?

overall response rate (time frame: in population of patients eligible and evaluable for response). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 23 Dec 2009.
