Trial summary

We are going to use a special type of bronchoscopy test to examine patients who have had previous surgical treatment for lung cancer or head and neck cancer. The aim is to determine a) whether we can identify precancerous changes in their airways b) whether this type of testing is acceptable and c) get an initial idea… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors in DyplAsia of Lung Epithelium

We are going to use a special type of bronchoscopy test to examine patients who have had previous surgical treatment for lung cancer or head and neck cancer. The aim is to determine a) whether we can identify precancerous changes in their airways b) whether this type of testing is acceptable and c) get an initial idea of whether a new drug called gefitinib has any effect on precancerous areas in the airway.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of high grade dysplasia of the bronchial epithelium in patients at high risk of lung dysplasia

    Patients will have white/blue light bronchoscopy with biopsy of identified lesions. The incidence of high grade lung epithelial dysplasia will be recorded.

    Measured: during the screening broncoscopy - carried out within the first month post consent

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Acceptability of screening patients as measured by success of trial recruitment

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Response of high grade dysplasia to treatment (complete / partial / stable / progression)

    To be estimated by photography \& biopsy of the lesions \& comparison with previous findings:

    Complete response: Complete resolution of a dysplastic lesion Partial response: Reduction of a dysplastic lesion by >=50% OR Reduction in grade of a high grade dysplastic lesion Progressive disease: Development of a new area of high grade dysplasia or invasive malignancy in an area of previous low grade dysplasia or normal epithelium OR Development of a higher grade lesion in an area of previous high grade dysplasia OR Increase in surface area of >=50%.

    Stable disease: None of the above.

    Measured: 6 & 12 months

  3. Toxicity and acceptability of treatment (proportion of patients refusing study entry).

    Measured: 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 3 & 6 months

  4. Successful biobanking of samples

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Gefitinib in people with Lung Cancer and Head and Neck Cancer, run by Papworth Hospital NHS Foundation Trust at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 0 inclusion and 17 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 19 Aug 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 United Kingdom. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Futility). 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?

Incidence of high grade dysplasia of the bronchial epithelium in patients at high risk of lung dysplasia (time frame: during the screening broncoscopy - carried out within the first month post consent). 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 19 Aug 2016.
