About this study

Official title: An Open, Randomized, Multicentre, Phase II Pilot Study of Docetaxel and Cisplatin in the Adjuvant Treatment of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) Stage I-II

The objective of this study is to evaluate efficacy, safety and quality of life adjuvant docetaxel-cisplatin chemotherapy versus no adjuvant treatment in patients with completely resected NSCLC Stage I-II.

Read the detailed description

Open multicentre, centrally randomized, two-arm parallel-group, phase II pilot-study. Duration of the Treatment : Arm A - will be 4-6 cycles Docetaxel 75mg/m2 and Cisplatin 75mg/m2 on day 1 every 21 days.

Arm B untreated control group - best supportive care. A follow-up check-up examination will be performed every 3 months for a total of three years.

What participants receive

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

  • DocetaxelDrug

  • DocetaxelDrug

    Docetaxel (Taxotere) 75 mg/m² as a 1 hour i.v. infusion, followed immediately by cisplatin 75 mg/m² as a 1 hour i.v. infusion, on day 1 every 21 days for 6 cycles.

    Dose reductions and/or treatment delays or discontinuation of treatment are planned for arm A in case of severe haematological and/or non haematological toxicities.

    Premedication:

    Dexamethasone 8 mg p.o. (or any other steroid commonly used) will be given -12 h, -3 h, -1 h before start of docetaxel infusion, then + 12 h, +24 h and + 36 h post infusion.

    All patients should receive a prophylactic antiemetic premedication to prevent nausea and vomitus, which includes a 5-HT3 antagonist prior to start of each docetaxel infusion.

    Hyperhydration Patients will require intravenous hydration according to institutional guidelines.

What is being measured

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

  1. to compare the effect on disease free survival of adjuvant docetaxel and cisplatin in patients with completely resected stage I-II non-small cell lung cancer versus observation only

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. to determine the impact on overall survival of adjuvant docetaxel and cisplatin.

  2. to characterise and quantitate toxicity related to this treatment regimen.

  3. to compare quality of life of patients on both treatment arms.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Docetaxel in people with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Central European Cooperative Oncology Group.

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 6 inclusion and 9 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 Jun 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?

to compare the effect on disease free survival of adjuvant docetaxel and cisplatin in patients with completely resected stage I-II non-small cell lung cancer versus observation only. 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 Jun 2011.
