What is being measured

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

  1. Progression-Free Survival (PFS)

    PFS was defined as the time from date of randomization to the first documented observation of disease progression or death from any cause. Response was defined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST, version 1.0) criteria. Progressive disease (PD) was defined as having at least a 20% increase in sum of the longest diameter of target lesions or the appearance of new lesions. PFS was censored at the date of the last objective progression-free disease assessment for participants who did not experience PD or death at the data inclusion cut-off date.

    Measured: Baseline to measured progressive disease up to 9.92 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Overall Survival (OS)

    OS was defined as the duration from the date of randomization to the date of death from any cause. For participants who were alive at the time of the data inclusion cutoff, OS was censored at the date the participant was last known to be alive.

    Measured: Baseline to date of death from any cause up to 12.32 months

  2. Time-to-Worsening (TW) in Lung Cancer Symptom Scale (LCSS) - Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) Subscale

    LCSS is a participant rated lung cancer instrument which consisted of 6 disease related symptoms (appetite, cough, fatigue, dyspnea, hemoptysis, and pain) and 3 quality of life (QoL) items (activity status, symptomatic distress, and overall QoL). TW in LCSS-HRQoL was measured from the date of enrollment to the first date of a 15 millimeters (mm) worsening in the 9th LCSS item on QoL. LCSS-HRQoL was measured on the 100-mm visual analogue scale (VAS) with the scores ranging from 0 (best response and very high HRQoL) to 100-mm (worse response and very low HRQoL). TW-HRQoL was censored at the date of the participant's last LCSS assessment for participant without a 15-mm increase on the 100-mm VAS.

    Measured: Baseline to disease worsening up to 10.58 months

  3. Duration of Disease Control (DDC)

    DDC was defined as the time from randomization to the first documented observation of disease progression or death from any cause and was limited to the participants with a best tumor response of complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD). Response was defined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST, version 1.0) criteria. Progressive disease (PD) was defined as having at least a 20% increase in sum of the longest diameter of target lesions or the appearance of new lesions. CR was defined as the disappearance of all target lesions. PR was defined as having at least a 30% decrease in sum of longest diameter of target lesions. SD was defined as small changes that did not meet the above criteria. DDC was censored at the date of the last objective progression-free disease assessment for participants who did not experience PD or death.

    Measured: Baseline to measured progressive disease up to 9.92 months

  4. Percentage of Participants With Complete Response or Partial Response (Tumor Response Rate)

    Response was defined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST, version 1.0) criteria. Participants with a best response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) were considered to have had a tumor response. CR was defined as the disappearance of all target lesions. PR was defined as having at least a 30% decrease in sum of longest diameter of target lesions. Percentage of participants was calculated as the total number of participants affected divided by the number of participants analyzed then multiplied by 100.

    Measured: Baseline to measured progressive disease up to 9.92 months

  5. Tumor Biomarkers

    Protein expression was measured using an Immunohistochemistry (IHC) assay from the tumor tissue samples. IHC histo-scores (H-scores) were determined separately for each of the 3 biomarkers: folate receptor alpha (FR alpha) in cytoplasm and apical membrane, thymidylate synthase (TS) in cytoplasm and nucleus, and thyroid transcription factor-1 (TTF1) in the nucleus. Tumor tissue samples were to be scored using a 0 (negative, no staining) to 3+ (brightest staining) scoring system for cytoplasmic and nuclear staining. IHC H-score was calculated using the formula: 1 * (percentage of cells stained 1+) + 2 * (percentage of cells stained 2+) + 3 * (percentage of cells stained 3+), giving a minimum score of 0 to a maximum score of 300. The maximum score indicates the strongest expression.

    Measured: Tumor samples collected at baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing enzastaurin and pemetrexed in people with Non-small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Eli Lilly and Company at 25 sites in 6 countries.

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 5 inclusion and 5 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 1 Jul 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 25 sites in United States, France, Germany, Italy, Portugal and 1 more country. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 1 Jul 2020). 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: Baseline to measured progressive disease up to 9.92 months). 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 1 Jul 2020.
