About this study

Official title: A Randomized Phase III Study of TaxoteRe Plus Cisplatin Versus AlImta Plus Cisplatin in 1st Line Non-squamous Cell Type Lung Cancer

This study is:

  • A multicenter, prospective, randomized, phase 3 trial.
  • To prove non-inferiority of Taxotere/Cisplatin compared to Pemetrexed/Cisplatin as a front line treatment of patients with non-squamous cell lung cancer.
  • 276 patients will be recruited.
Read the detailed description

Docetaxel is being used in 60mg/m2 3 weekly dosage in Japan and several east Asian institutions. Docetaxel 60mg/m2 and Cisplatin 70 mg/m3 3 weekly regimen will be compared to Pemetrexed 500mg/m2 and Cisplatin 70 mg/m2 3 weekly regimen in first line NSCLC with non-squamous histology.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Taxotere and Pemetrexed in people with Carcinoma, Non Small Cell Lung, run by Chonnam National University Hospital at 15 sites in South Korea.

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 9 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Jul 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 15 sites in 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 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 was stopped early (reason given: Difficulty in recruitment due to approval of maintenance pemetrexed treatment). 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?

Progression Free Survival (time frame: one year). 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 14 Jul 2015.
