About this study

Official title: Phase 2 Study of Weekly Topotecan With Docetaxel for Recurrent Small Cell Lung Cancer

The purposes of this study are:

  • To determine the overall response rate of patients treated with at least 2 cycles of this regimen.
  • To determine the feasibility and toxicity of the combination of topotecan and docetaxel.
Read the detailed description

The main objective of this study was to determine the overall response rate of patients treated with at least 2 cycles of topotecan and docetaxel. The secondary objectives were to determine the feasibility and toxicities of this combination. The final secondary objective is overall survival for patients that received 2 or more cycles.

Methods: Eligible pts with recurrent small cell lung cancer had to be at least 3 months from initial treatment. Pts received Docetaxel 30 mg/m2 IV followed by Topotecan 3 mg/m2 IV Days 1 and 8 of a 21 day cycle. Disease assessment was done every 2 cycles. Toxicity was measured each cycle.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Intravenous Topotecan and Intravenous Docetaxel in people with Mediastinal Neoplasms, run by Aultman Health Foundation at 1 site 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 6 inclusion and 6 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 20 Aug 2018. 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 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: Slow Accrual). 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 overall response rate of patients treated with at least two cycles of topotecan and docetaxel (time frame: 3 years). 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 20 Aug 2018.
