What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Overall Tumor Response - Percentage of Participants Achieving Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) [Overall Response Rate (ORR)]
Overall response rate is the best response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as classified by the investigators according to the Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST v1.1). CR is a disappearance of all target and non-target lesions and normalization of tumor marker level. PR is an at least 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of target lesions (taking as reference the baseline sum diameter) without progression of not-target lesions or appearance of new lesions. Overall response rate is calculated as a total number of participants with CR or PR divided by the total number of participants with at least 1 measurable lesion, multiplied by 100.
Measured: Baseline until Progressive Disease or Study Discontinuation (Up to 23 Months)
Secondary outcomes (8)
Percentage of Participants Who Achieved a Best Response of Complete Response (CR), Partial Response (PR), or Stable Disease (SD) (Clinical Benefit Rate)
Clinical benefit rate is the best response CR, PR, or stable disease (SD) as classified by the investigators according to the RECIST v1.1. CR is a disappearance of all target and non-target lesions and normalization of tumor marker level. PR is an at least 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of target lesions (taking as reference the baseline sum diameter) without progression of not-target lesions or appearance of new lesions. SD is neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for progressive disease, taking as reference the smallest sum diameter since treatment started. Clinical benefit rate is calculated as a total number of participants with CR, PR, or SD divided by the total number of participants with at least 1 measurable lesion, multiplied by 100.
Measured: Baseline until Progressive Disease or Study Discontinuation (Up to 23 Months)
Progression-free Survival (PFS)
Progression-free survival (PFS) time was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the first date of progressive disease (symptomatic or objective) or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first. For participants who were not known to have died or progressed as of the data-inclusion cutoff date, PFS time was censored at the date of the last objective progression-free disease assessment prior to the date of any subsequent systematic anticancer therapy. PFS was summarized using Kaplan-Meier estimates.
Measured: Baseline to Progressive Disease or Death Due to Any Cause (Up to 27.1 Months)
Duration of Response
Duration of Response is defined as the time from the first observation of CR or PR to the first observation of progressive disease (PD) or death from any cause. A response is defined as a confirmed objective status of CR or PR. For participants who are not known to have died as of the data inclusion cut-off date and who do not have PD, the duration will be censored at the date of the last objective progression free disease assessment prior to the date of any subsequent anticancer therapy.
Measured: First Observation of CR or PR until Progressive Disease or Death Due to Any Cause (Up to 23 Months)
Change in Symptom Burden Scores of Lung Cancer Symptom Scale (LCSS)
The LCSS participants scale is a 9-item questionnaire. Six questions are symptom-specific measures for lung cancer (appetite, fatigue, cough, dyspnea, hemoptysis and pain), and 3 summation items describe total symptomatic distress, activity status, and overall quality of life. Participant responses were measured using visual analogue scales (VAS) with 100-milliliter (mm) lines. Scores range from 0 (for best outcome) to 100 (for worst outcome). The Average Symptom Burden Index (ASBI) was calculated as the mean of 6 symptom-specific questions from the LCSS.
Measured: Baseline until End of Study (Up to 27.1 Months)
Pharmacokinetics (PK): Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of LY2603618
Measured: Day 2 and Day 3 of Cycle 1 and Cycle 2: Prior to End of Infusion (EOI); EOI + 1-2 hr; EOI + 4-6 hr; EOI + 20-28 hr; anytime on Day 8 of Cycle 1 and Cycle 2
PK: Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Pemetrexed
Measured: Day 1 and Day 2 of Cycle 1 and Cycle 2: Prior to End of Infusion (EOI); EOI + 1-2 hour (hr); EOI + 4-6- hr; EOI + 20-28 hr
PK: Area Under the Plasma Concentration vs. Time Curve From Time Zero to Infinity [AUC(0-∞)] of LY2603618
Measured: Day 2 and Day 3 of Cycle 1 and Cycle 2: Prior to End of Infusion (EOI); EOI + 1-2 hr; EOI + 4-6 hr; EOI + 20-28 hr; anytime on Day 8 of Cycle 1 and Cycle 2
PK: Area Under the Plasma Concentration vs. Time Curve From Time Zero to Infinity [AUC(0-∞)] of Pemetrexed

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing LY2603618 and Pemetrexed in people with Non Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Eli Lilly and Company at 13 sites in 4 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 5 inclusion and 9 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 17 Sep 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 13 sites in United States, Taiwan, Italy, South Korea. 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?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 15 Aug 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
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 Tumor Response - Percentage of Participants Achieving Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) [Overall Response Rate (ORR)] (time frame: Baseline until Progressive Disease or Study Discontinuation (Up to 23 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 NCT00988858, 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 17 Sep 2019.
