Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Patients must have histologically or cytologically confirmed non-squamous NSCLC.
  • Clinically or pathologically proven Stage IV NSCLC.
  • Patients must have measurable disease, defined as at least one lesion that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest diameter to be recorded) as >20 mm with conventional techniques or as >10 mm irrespective of scanner type.
  • No previous chemotherapy.
  • Age >18 years.
  • Because no dosing or adverse event data are currently available on the use of 64Cu-ATSM in combination with paclitaxel, carboplatin, and bevacizumab in patients <18 years of age, children are excluded from this study but will be eligible for future pediatric phase 2 combination trials.

  • ECOG performance status 0-1.
  • Patients must have normal organ and marrow function as defined below:
  • hemoglobin >9 gm/dL
  • absolute neutrophil count >1,500/mcL
  • platelets >100,000/mcL
  • total bilirubin < 1.5 mg/dL
  • AST(SGOT)/ALT(SGPT) <3 X institutional upper limit of normal
  • alkaline phosphatase <3 X institutional upper limit of normal
  • creatinine <1.5 X institutional upper limit of normal
  • OR
  • creatinine clearance >60 mL/min/1.73 m2 (Cockcroft Gault)
  • urine dipstick for proteinuria < 1+
  • Adequate coagulation function - INR < 1.5 and PTT < institutional upper limit of normal.
  • The effects of 64Cu-ATSM on the developing human fetus at the recommended imaging dose are unknown. For this reason and because chemotherapeutic agents as well as other therapeutic agents used in this trial are known to be teratogenic, women of child-bearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry and for the duration of study participation. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately.
  • Ability of the patient to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document.

Who cannot join

  • Patients who have had prior chemotherapy.
  • Patients who have had prior radiation therapy for lung cancer.
  • Patients may not be receiving any other investigational agents.
  • Patients with known central nervous system metastases.
  • History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to 64Cu-ATSM or other agents used in the study.
  • History of claustrophobia, since patients might not be able to tolerate 64CuATSM-PET imaging.
Show all 15Show fewer
  • History of gross hemoptysis - bright red blood of > ½ teaspoon in quantity - in past 6 months.
  • Any concurrent or history of active malignancy in the prior five years except for basal cell skin cancer or carcinoma in situ of the cervix.
  • History of thrombotic or hemorrhagic disorder.
  • Anticoagulation at treatment/therapeutic doses.
  • Uncontrolled hypertension.
  • Pre-existing neuropathy > grade 1.
  • Treatment with aspirin > 325 mg/day, dipyridamole, ticlopidine, clopidogrel, and/or cilostazol that cannot be discontinued.
  • Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
  • Pregnant women are excluded from this study because paclitaxel, carboplatin, and bevacizumab are agents with the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects. Because there is an unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with paclitaxel, carboplatin, and bevacizumab, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated with these agents. These potential risks may also apply to other agents used in this study.

About this study

Official title: A Pilot Study of 64CuATSM and Hypoxia in Stage IV Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Patients Treated With Carboplatin, Paclitaxel, and Bevacizumab

The purpose of this study is to determine:

  • Whether bevacizumab increases the amount of oxygen in cancer as measured by a special positron emission tomography (PET) scan using 64Cu-ATSM.
  • Whether the amount of oxygen in cancer as measured by 64Cu-ATSM PET scan predicts how well the cancer responds to treatment with chemotherapy.

What is being measured

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

  1. To determine whether bevacizumab improves tumor hypoxia as measured by 64Cu-ATSM-PET in patients with previously untreated metastatic NSCLC.

    Measured: 3 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To determine whether bevacizumab and chemotherapy improves response rates in tumors defined to be hypoxia by 64-Cu-ATSM-PET in patients with treatment-naïve NSCLC than what would be expected with chemotherapy alone.

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing 64Cu-ATSM PET in people with Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung, run by Washington University School of Medicine.

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 21 inclusion and 15 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Jul 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

To determine whether bevacizumab improves tumor hypoxia as measured by 64Cu-ATSM-PET in patients with previously untreated metastatic NSCLC. (time frame: 3 years). 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 23 Jul 2013.
