About this study

Official title: Phase II Study of Dasatinib in Non Small Cell Lung Cancer

Dasatinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. This phase II trial is studying how well dasatinib works in treating patients with stage IIIB, stage IV, or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Determine the progression-free survival at 12 weeks in patients with stage IIIB or IV or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer treated with dasatinib.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Determine the rate of response in patients treated with this drug. II. Examine the relationship between clinical response to this drug and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutational status, EGFR copy number, and (phosphorylated Src) pSrc expression levels in pre-treatment tumor biopsies.

III. Determine the toxicity of this drug.

OUTLINE:

Patients received oral dasatinib twice daily on days 1-21. Treatment repeats every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Previously obtained paraffin-embedded tumor tissue samples are analyzed by polymerase chain reaction and fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) for epidermal growth factor receptor and by immunohistochemistry for pSrc expression.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Objective Response (Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR))

    Objective response defined as participants with Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) evaluated using the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria. RECIST definitions are Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in sum of the longest diameter (LD) of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum LD; Progressive Disease (PD): At least a 20% increase in the sum of the LD of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions; Stable Disease (SD): Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as reference the smallest sum LD since the treatment started. Response measured by tumor size on computed tomography scans and by metabolic activity on positron emission tomography scans.

    Measured: 12 weeks

  2. Progression-free Survival (PFS)

    Progression-free survival (PFS) is defined as the duration of time from start of treatment to time of progression or death.

    Measured: Time from start of treatment to time of progression or death, assessed at 2 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing dasatinib in people with Non-small Cell Lung Cancer and Recurrent Non-small Cell Lung Cancer, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) 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 46 inclusion and 0 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 5 Mar 2019. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 24 Dec 2013). 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?

Number of Participants With Objective Response (Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR)) (time frame: 12 weeks). The study lists 2 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 5 Mar 2019.
