About this study

Official title: Randomized, Multicenter, Double-blind, Phase 3 Trial of Tavocept Versus Placebo in Patients With Newly Diagnosed or Relapsed Advanced Primary Adenocarcinoma of the Lung Treated With Docetaxel or Paclitaxel Plus Cisplatin

Tavocept is an investigational drug that is being developed to see if it can increase the survival of patients who are being treated with chemotherapy as well as to see if it can prevent or reduce side effects of chemotherapy. This research study is aimed at trying to find out if people with advanced adenocarcinoma of the lung who are treated with a standard combination of chemotherapy drugs will live longer if they are also treated with an investigational drug called "Tavocept." Another objective of this research study is to find out whether or not Tavocept helps to prevent or reduce side-effects like kidney damage, anemia, and nausea and vomiting that can occur with these drug combinations. The drug combinations that will be used in this research study will include either paclitaxel and cisplatin, or docetaxel and cisplatin. These drug combinations are approved to be used to treat people with advanced NSCLC. Every patient on this research study will be treated with standard chemotherapy for primary NSCLC in the form of either docetaxel or paclitaxel (these will be recommended by your research study doctor), which will be given in combination with cisplatin.

Tavocept(BNP7787) in combination with cisplatin and either docetaxel or paclitaxel, Placebo in combination with cisplatin and docetaxel or paclitaxel

What is being measured

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

  1. Overall Survival

    Measured: throughout study

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Progression Free Survival

    Measured: Every 2 cycles during study treatment then every 6-8 weeks after going off study for up to 6 months, or until progression or initiation of further treatment

  2. Incidence of 30% or greater decrease in the calculated creatinine clearance relatively to baseline

    Measured: throughout the study

  3. Incidence of NCI-CTCAE grade 2,3, or 4 anemia

    Measured: throughout the study

  4. Proportion of patients having no impact of chemotherapy-induced emesis on daily life

    Measured: throughout the study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Tavocept(BNP7787) in combination with cisplatin and either docetaxel or paclitaxel in people with Non-small Cell Lung Cancer, run by BioNumerik Pharmaceuticals, Inc. at 42 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 2 inclusion and 4 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 13 Jul 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 42 sites in Russia, Ukraine, Bulgaria, Romania, United States 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 Survival (time frame: throughout study). 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 13 Jul 2022.
