About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Open Clinical Trial of Using TS Gene Polymorphism to Predict Effect in Patients of Advanced Lung Adenocarcinoma to Pemetrexed Combining With Cisplatin Regiment as First-line Treatment

The investigators performed a multicenter, open trial of using TS gene polymorphism to predict advanced lung adenocarcinoma effect to pemetrexed combined with cisplatin regiment as first-line treatment.

Read the detailed description
  1. Main eligibility criteria were histologic or cytologic proof of advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) primary treatment, normal organ function, and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status 0 to 2.
  2. All Patients were delivered to pemetrexed 500 mg/m2 and cisplatin 75 mg/m2 for not less than 4 cycle, administered intravenously every 3 weeks. Response assessment was performed every 6 weeks; toxicity assessment was performed every 3 weeks.
  3. Primary end point was time to progression (TTP); secondary end points were objective response rate (ORR), overall survival (OS), and toxicity.
  4. The study was designed to evaluate TS(thymidylate synthase) gene polymorphism as a predictor for advanced lung adenocarcinoma effect to pemetrexed combined with cisplatin regiment as first-line treatment.
  5. Polymorphisms of thymidylate synthase were investigated in peripheral WBC(white blood cell)of all patients.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing pemetrexed in people with Non-small-cell Lung Cancer and Adenocarcinoma, run by Hunan Province Tumor Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 4 inclusion and 2 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 22 Feb 2016. 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 China. 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?

time to progress (time frame: 6 months). 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 NCT00940069, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 Feb 2016.
