Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • The patient has histologically or cytologically confirmed non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), except squamous cell carcinoma. Mixed tumors will be categorized by the predominant cell type, but the presence of small cell lung cancer elements will make the patient ineligible. Cytologic or histologic elements can be established on metastatic tumor aspirates or biopsy.
  • The patient has advanced NSCLC (Stage IIIB with malignant pleural effusion or Stage IV or recurrent disease).
  • Patients must have measurable disease as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST).
  • The patient's Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status is 0 or 1.
  • The patient has adequate hematologic function as defined by an Absolute Neutrophil Count greater than or equal to 1500/mm³,hemoglobin greater than or equal to 9 gm/dL, and a platelet count greater than or equal to 100,000/mm³ obtained within 2 weeks prior to the first dose of study medication.
  • The patient has adequate hepatic function as defined by a total bilirubin greater than or equal to 1.5 mg/dL and transaminases and alkaline phosphatase less than or equal to 5 x the Upper Limit of Normal (ULN) obtained within 2 weeks prior to the first dose of study medication.
Show all 9Show fewer
  • The patient has adequate renal function as defined by serum creatinine less than or equal to 1.5 x ULN or calculated creatinine clearance (CrCl) >60 mL/minute, and urine dipstick for proteinuria <1+ (ie, either 0 or trace) obtained within 2 weeks prior to the first dose of study medication. If urine dipstick is greater than or equal to 1+, then a 24-hour urine for protein must demonstrate <500 mg of protein in 24 hours to allow participation in the study.
  • The patient has adequate coagulation function as defined by International Normalized Ratio less than or equal to 1.5 and a Prothrombin time and partial thromboplastin time less than or equal to ULN obtained within 2 weeks prior to the first dose of study medication.
  • The patient, if a woman of childbearing potential, agrees to use an accepted and effective method of contraception (hormonal or barrier methods, abstinence) prior to study entry and for the duration of the study. If a male and sexually active, the patient agrees to use effective contraception.

Who cannot join

  • The patient has known Central Nervous System metastases. A head computed tomography (CT) is required within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of study medication (magnetic resonance imagines [MRIs] are also acceptable).
  • The patient has received prior cetuximab therapy.
  • The patient has received prior bevacizumab therapy.
  • The patient has received prior systemic chemotherapy or radiation therapy at any time for lung cancer.
  • Any concurrent malignancy other than basal cell skin cancer, or carcinoma in situ of the cervix. Patients with adequately treated cancers of other histologies who have been disease-free for more than 3 years prior to the first treatment dose are eligible.
  • Concurrent treatment with other anti-cancer therapy, including other chemotherapy, immunotherapy, hormonal therapy, radiotherapy, chemoembolization, or targeted therapy.
Show all 17Show fewer
  • The patient has an ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
  • The patient has a history of thrombotic or hemorrhagic disorders.
  • The patient has uncontrolled hypertension (>150/100 mmHg) on a standard regimen of anti-hypertensive therapy.
  • The patient is receiving chronic daily treatment with aspirin (>325 mg/day) or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents known to inhibit platelet function.
  • The patient is receiving treatment with dipyridamole (Persantine®), ticlopidine (Ticlid®), clopidogrel (Plavix®) and /or cilostazol (Pletal®).
  • The patient is receiving anti-coagulation therapy. Prophylactic anti-coagulation of venous access devices is allowed. Caution should be taken on treating patients with low dose heparin or low molecular weight heparin for deep vein thrombosis (DVT) prophylaxis during treatment with bevacizumab as there may be an increased risk of bleeding.
  • Patients with a history of gross hemoptysis (defined as bright red blood or greater than or equal to ½ teaspoon).
  • The patient has a serious non-healing wound ulcer, bone fracture, or major surgical procedure within 30 days prior to first dose of study medication.
  • Elective or planned major surgery to be performed during the course of the trial.
  • The patient has a pre-existing neuropathy >grade 1.
  • The patient, if a woman, is pregnant or lactating.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression Free Survival (PFS)

    PFS is defined as the time from randomization until the date of progression of disease (PD) or death from any cause. PD was determined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria. PD ≥20% increase in sum of longest diameter of target lesions. Participants who are alive and without PD will be censored at the date of their last tumor assessment.

    Measured: Randomization to PD or date of death from any cause up to 33.1 months

Secondary outcomes (4)

  1. Overall Survival

    Overall survival is defined as the time from randomization to death. Participants who are alive will be censored on the last known alive date.

    Measured: Randomization to the date of death from any cause up to 42.7 months

  2. Percentage of Participants Achieving an Objective Overall Response (Overall Response Rate)

    The best objective overall response rate (ORR) is the percentage of randomized participants with a best overall response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR), as classified by the investigator according to the RECIST guidelines. CR=disappearance of all target lesions; PR≥30% decrease in sum of longest diameter of target lesions. ORR is calculated as a total number of participants with CR or PR divided by the total number of participants treated in that arm, multiplied by 100. Participants with no post-baseline evaluation will be considered as a non-responder.

    Measured: Randomization to measured progressive disease up to 31.8 months

  3. Duration of Overall Response

    The duration of response, in participants with best overall response of CR or PR, is measured from the date criteria are met for CR/PR (whichever is first recorded), until the first date that the criteria for PD is met or death. CR, PR, and PD, as classified by the investigator according to the RECIST guidelines. CR=disappearance of all target lesions; PR≥30% decrease in sum of longest diameter of target lesions; PD≥20% increase in sum of longest diameter of target lesions. Participants who are alive and without PD will be censored at the date of their last tumor assessment.

    Measured: Time of first response to the first date of PD or death due to any cause up to 31.8 months

  4. Percentage of Participants With Symptomatic Response (Symptom Response Rate)

    Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy for Patients With Lung Cancer (FACT-L) measures domains of health-related quality of life (HR-QL): physical wellbeing (WB), social/family WB, emotional WB, functional WB, and additional lung cancer concerns. Symptom response (improvement) was defined as ≥2 point increase from baseline in the 7-item Lung cancer subscale (LCS) score maintained for 2 consecutive assessments. Scores range from 0-28 with higher scores indicating fewer symptoms. Patients with a score of >26 were not evaluable for symptom response, since a score of 28 is the maximum possible.

    Measured: From date of partial response until progression of disease up to 31.8 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Cetuximab, Bevacizumab and Paclitaxel in people with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Eli Lilly and Company at 43 sites 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 9 inclusion and 17 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 7 Jun 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 43 sites 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 7 Jun 2011). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Progression Free Survival (PFS) (time frame: Randomization to PD or date of death from any cause up to 33.1 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
