About this study

Official title: An Open-label Randomized Phase II Trial of Gemcitabine and Cisplatin With or Without Bevacizumab in EGFR Wild-type Non-squamous Non-small-cell Lung Cancer Patients

Advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients without epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations show a poor prognosis. Gemcitabine combined with cisplatin chemotherapy is an effective treatment measures for EGFR mutation-negative NSCLC patients, but the prognosis remains poor. Chemotherapy combined with targeted monoclonal antibody treatment may be better treatment options in these patients. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Bevacizumab blocks the ability of tumors to grow new blood vessels and spread. It is not yet known whether cisplatin and gemcitabine is more effective when given alone or with bevacizumab. This randomized trial studies how well giving cisplatin and gemcitabine alone or in combination with Bevacizumab (Avastin) works in treating patients with stage IIIB/IV non-squamous NSCLC without EGFR mutations.

Read the detailed description

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer morbidity and mortality worldwide. The majority of lung cancer is nonsquamous NSCLC. EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKI) is a effective first-line treatment for EGFR mutations non-squamous NSCLC treatment. But those patients without epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations show a poorer prognosis. Gemcitabine combined with cisplatin chemotherapy is an effective treatment measures for EGFR mutation-negative NSCLC patients, but the prognosis remains poor. Chemotherapy combined with targeted monoclonal antibody treatment may be better treatment options in these patients. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Bevacizumab blocks the ability of tumors to grow new blood vessels and spread. This randomized trial studies how well giving cisplatin and gemcitabine alone or in combination with Bevacizumab (Avastin) works in treating patients with stage IIIB/IV non-squamous NSCLC without EGFR mutations. Accordingly, we have come to a scientific hypothesis that cisplatin and gemcitabine combination with Bevacizumab might be a better treatment strategy for stage IIIB/IV non-squamous NSCLC patients with EGFR wild-type. It can improve the PFS of stage IIIB/IV non-squamous NSCLC patients with EGFR wild-type. The primary endpoint is disease-free time to progression (PFS). The secondary study endpoint is objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), safety and quality of life (QOL). Through this study lay the foundation for further exploration of the non-squamous NSCLC first-line treatment in patients with EGFR wild-type strategy, and guide the rational application of bevacizumab.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing cisplatin and gemcitabine combination with Bevacizumab and Gemcitabine combined with cisplatin chemotherapy in people with Lung Cancer, run by Sichuan Cancer Hospital and Research Institute at 2 sites in China.

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 19 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Feb 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact juan li, doctor (+8613880276636, dr.lijuan@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

disease-free time to progression (time frame: 6 week). 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 12 Feb 2013.
