About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study of Oral Sapacitabine in Patients With Previously Treated Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

A phase II study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of oral sapacitabine in previously treated advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Read the detailed description

This is an open label, single arm, phase II study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of oral sapacitabine administered twice daily for 5 consecutive days every week for 2 weeks followed by 7-day rest in patients who have had one prior chemotherapy regimen for advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).

Being tested
sapacitabine
Medical subject headings
Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung

What participants receive

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

  • sapacitabineDrug

    Also called CYC682

    twice daily by mouth for 7 days or once daily by mouth for 5 days/week x 2 weeks every 21 days

Study groups in NCT00885963
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
sapacitabineExperimentalPart A (lead-in phase): Two dosing schedules, i.e., once daily (q.d.) or twice daily (b.i.d.) x 5 days/week x 2 weeks every 3 weeks will be evaluated. Part B (Phase 2): Receive the recommended phase 2 dose of once daily or twice daily dosing schedule derived from Part A.
Receives: Drug: sapacitabine

What is being measured

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

  1. the rate of response and stable disease

    complete response or partial response and stable disease

    Measured: after cycle 2, 4, 7 and every 3 cycles thereafter

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. progression-free survival

    Time until disease progression

    Measured: 1.5 years

  2. duration of response

    Observed response time

    Measured: 1.5 years

  3. duration of stable disease

    Observed time of the disease state within -30% and +10% of the baseline

    Measured: 1.5 years

  4. overall survival

    Median survival time of the overall patient population in the study

    Measured: 1.5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing sapacitabine in people with Non-small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Cyclacel Pharmaceuticals, Inc. 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 13 inclusion and 7 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Dec 2021. 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Limitation in financial resources.). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

the rate of response and stable disease (time frame: after cycle 2, 4, 7 and every 3 cycles thereafter). 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 22 Dec 2021.
