If creatinine 1.0 - 1.5 x ULN, creatinine clearance will be calculated according to CKD-EPI formula and patients with creatinine clearance <60 mL/min should be excluded) function tests
  • Absence of any psychological, familial, sociological or geographical condition potentially hampering compliance with the study protocol and follow-up schedule.
  • Before patient enrollment, written informed consent must be given according to ICH/GCP and national/local regulations.

Who cannot join

  • Persistence of clinically relevant treatment-related toxicities from previous chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
  • Treatment with other investigational drugs or treatment in another clinical trial within the past four weeks before start of treatment or concomitantly with this trial.
  • Other malignancy within the past five years other than basal cell skin cancer or carcinoma in situ of the cervix.
  • Patient with reproductive potential not implementing accepted and effective method of contraception
  • History of severe hypersensitivity reaction (≥grade 3) to polysorbate 80 containing drugs or to docetaxel
  • Uncontrolled severe illness or medical condition (including uncontrolled diabetes mellitus, hypertension, heart failure ≤ NYHA II, history of myocardial infarction within the past 6 months, angina, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), serious infections requiring systemic antibiotic therapy (e.g. antimicrobial, antifungal, antiviral)
Show all 10Show fewer
  • Concurrent or planned treatment with strong inhibitors or strong inducers of cytochrome P450 3A4/5 (a one week wash-out period is necessary for patients who are already on these treatments) (see Appendix A and B)

About this study

Official title: A Pilot Phase II Trial of Cabazitaxel in Patients With Metastatic NSCLC Progressing After Docetaxel-based Treatment

The investigators propose to study the single agent activity of Cabazitaxel in a Phase II trial of subjects with relapsed or refractory non-small cell lung cancer pretreated with docetaxel, given the fact of its significant activity and its acceptable toxicity profile.

Read the detailed description

Non small cell lung cancer represents the second most common type of cancer in both men and women in the Western world. The availability of new active regimens in the first line setting has prompted several investigators to consider second line therapy for patients with advanced NSCLC, since a substantial percentage of patients maintain a good PS upon recurrence. On the basis of the results of phase III trials docetaxel, erlotinib, gefitinib, or pemetrexed are considered as "standard" choices for second-line therapy.

However, despite the increased availability of different drugs, NSCLC remains a devastating disease with median OS which rarely exceeds 12 months.

Preclinical data of cabazitaxel have demonstrated antitumor activity in models resistant to paclitaxel and docetaxel. In cell lines resistant to cytotoxic agents, cabazitaxel induced further tumor regression.

The recommended phase 2 doses for Cabazitaxle were 20 and 25 mg/m2. Cabazitaxel showed antitumor activity in solid tumors including docetaxel-refractory metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer and breast cancer.

    Disease control rate is defined as the proportion of patients with complete response plus partial response plus stable disease

    Measured: Disease evaluation at Week 6

  2. Progression Free Survival

    Measured: 1 year

  3. Overall Survival

    Measured: 1 year

  4. Toxicity profile

    Measured: Every 3 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Cabazitaxel in people with NSCLC, run by Hellenic Oncology Research Group at 5 sites in Greece.

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 10 inclusion and 10 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Sep 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in Greece. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Overall Response Rate (time frame: Disease evaluation at Week 6). 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 28 Sep 2015; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 5 Nov 2026.
