About this study

The current trial "A Phase I/II study of Erlotinib +/- Tivozanib as initial treatment for Metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer assigned by VeriStrat® Serum Proteomic Evaluation" will begin by evaluating toxicity for the combination of Tivozanib and Erlotinib to determine a phase II dose. The phase II portion of the study will seek to duplicate the finding of the BEER trial in a selected population of patients with NSCLC with a VeriStrat® Good signature using two oral agents with Tivozanib substituted for bevacizumab. Phase II will be designed as a selection-based randomized trial. Patients with VeriStrat® Good signature will be assigned to EGFR inhibitor therapy with a randomization to Erlotinib plus/minus Tivozanib. Patients with VeriStrat® Poor signature will be assigned to standard of care. Standard-of-care chemotherapy as first treatment at the discretion of patient and physician will be evaluated for response to treatment, survival and repeat VeriStrat® signature.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • TivozanibDrug

    Also called AV-951, KRN951

    The phase I study will test two dose levels of tivozanib (dose level 1: 1.0 mg and dose level 2: 1.5 mg) given daily for 3 consecutive weeks followed by one week break. Based on the phase I results, the dose of tivozanib will be chosen for the phase II study.

  • ErlotinibDrug

    150 mg/day for 28 day cycle. No rest period.

  • Standard of Care treatmentOther

    This treatment will be determined by the study doctor and is considered standard of care.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Tivozanib and Erlotinib in people with Non-small Cell Lung Cancer and Stage IV Disease, run by University of Utah.

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 11 inclusion and 36 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Jul 2013.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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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 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?

Safety of combination tivozanib and erlotinib (time frame: 36 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 25 Jul 2013.
