Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to find out what effects (both good and bad) two medications (VELCADE and Vorinostat) have on patients who have certain types of lung cancer. The study is "dose escalating" meaning that patients will receive different doses of medication depending on when they enter the study. Read more about this study

About this study

The purpose of this study is to find out what effects (both good and bad) two medications (VELCADE and Vorinostat) have on patients who have certain types of lung cancer. The study is "dose escalating" meaning that patients will receive different doses of medication depending on when they enter the study. Participation in the study will last approximately 3 months and will include an initial screening visit, a visit once each week for 3 weeks to receive the study medications, and then 2 additional visits around the time of your surgery to remove your lung cancer tumor.

What participants receive

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

  • Velcade and VorinostatDrug

    Subjects will receive one of 3 doses of Velcade (at a dose of 1.0 - 1.6 mg/m2 once weekly for 3 weeks) and one of 4 doses of Vorinostat (at a dose of 100mg every day 3 times a week for 3 weeks to 300mg twice per day, 3 times per week for 3 weeks). Doses determined by a predetermined escalation schedule.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Velcade and Vorinostat in people with Non Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by University of Virginia 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 16 inclusion and 13 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 4 May 2017. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

Adverse events (time frame: 30 days post surgical resection). 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 4 May 2017.
