Trial summary

This phase II trial is studying how well E7389 works in treating patients with recurrent or progressive stage IIIB or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as E7389, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Phase 2 Study of the Halichondrin B Analog E7389 in Patients With Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) Previously Treated With a Taxane

This phase II trial is studying how well E7389 works in treating patients with recurrent or progressive stage IIIB or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as E7389, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  1. Evaluate the antitumor activity of E7389 (eribulin mesylate), in terms of objective response rate, in patients with recurrent or progressive stage IIIB or IV non-small cell lung cancer.

II. Evaluate the time to progression and overall survival of patients treated with this drug.

III. Evaluate the toxicity profile of this drug in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients receive eribulin mesylate IV over 1-2 minutes on days 1 and 8. Treatment repeats every 21 days for 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed once monthly for at least 6 months and then periodically thereafter.

What is being measured

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

  1. Objective Response Rate (CR or PR) According to RECIST Criteria

    Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions and assessed by CT, MRI or X-ray: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR

    Measured: Tumor measurements repeated every 6 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Overall Survival

    Will be estimated using the product-limit method of Kaplan and Meier.

    Measured: From start of treatment to death from any cause, assessed up to 5 years

  2. Progression Free Survival

    Will be estimated using the product-limit method of Kaplan and Meier.

    Measured: From start of treatment to the time of documented progression, assessed up to 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing eribulin mesylate in people with Recurrent Non-small Cell Lung Cancer and Stage IIIB Non-small Cell Lung Cancer, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) at 2 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 27 inclusion and 2 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 Jan 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 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 Jan 2015). 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?

Objective Response Rate (CR or PR) According to RECIST Criteria (time frame: Tumor measurements repeated every 6 weeks). 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 7 Jan 2015.
