What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • bavituximab plus paclitaxel and carboplatinDrug

    Weekly bavituximab dose of 3 mg/kg until disease progression, and up to 6 cycles of carboplatin at a dose of AUC=5 and paclitaxel 175 mg/m2 every 21 days (21-day cycles)

What is being measured

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

  1. Overall response (complete response + partial response) to a combination of bavituximab plus carboplatin and paclitaxel in patients with previously untreated locally advanced or metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer

    Measured: one year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Time to tumor progression, duration of response, overall survival and safety

    Measured: Approximately 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing bavituximab plus paclitaxel and carboplatin in people with Non-small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Peregrine Pharmaceuticals at 9 sites in India.

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 12 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 24 Mar 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 sites in India. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Overall response (complete response + partial response) to a combination of bavituximab plus carboplatin and paclitaxel in patients with previously untreated locally advanced or metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer (time frame: one year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00687817, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 24 Mar 2011.
