  • Absolute neutrophil count > 1500 mm3, platelet count ≥ 100×109 L, hemoglobin ≥ 8.5 g/dL
  • Serum creatinine ≤1.3 mg/dL (candidate for cisplatin chemotherapy), total bilirubin ≤ 2 mg/dL, AST/ALT ≤ 5 times the upper limit of normal range
Show all 10Show fewer
  • No prior chemotherapy or radiotherapy for NSCLC
  • At least 5 years from diagnosis of another cancer except treated in-situ disease or surgically resected non-melanoma skin cancer with clear margins.
  • Willingness to provide permission to biopsy NSCLC for collection of frozen pretreatment sample.
  • Women of child-bearing potential (i.e., women who are pre-menopausal or not surgically sterile) must be willing to use an acceptable contraceptive method (abstinence, oral contraceptive or double barrier method) for the duration of the study and for 30 days following the last dose of study drug, and must have a negative urine or serum pregnancy test within 2 weeks prior to beginning treatment on this trial

Who cannot join

  • Active clinically serious infection > CTCAE (version 4.03) Grade 2.
  • Serious non-healing wound, ulcer, or bone fracture.
  • Major contraindication to surgical resection of NSCLC
  • Inability to complete informed consent process and adhere to the protocol treatment plan and follow-up requirements.
  • Concurrent severe illness such as active infection, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit safety and compliance with study requirements.

About this study

Official title: Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy for Non-metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

To determine the rate of pathologic complete responses (pCR) at the time of definitive surgical resection of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)

Read the detailed description

Participants in this study will have a lung mass and are undergoing a procedure to determine if they have non-small cell lung cancer that could be removed surgically. If confirmed to have non-small cell lung cancer that can be surgically removed, he or she may be able to continue as a possible participant in this study.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether neoadjuvant chemotherapy (chemotherapy that is given before surgery) will improve the amount of time a participant is free from disease in people with non-metastatic (has not spread from the original site) non-small cell lung cancer. The chemotherapy medications that will be used in this study are cisplatin and pemetrexed or cisplatin and gemcitabine and have been shown to be effective in patients with non-small cell lung cancer.

What participants receive

    Alkylating antineoplastic agent (Chemotherapy)

  • PemetrexedDrug

    Also called Alimta®

    Antimetabolite antineoplastic agent (Chemotherapy)

  • GemcitabineDrug

    Also called Gemzar®

    Antimetabolite antineoplastic agent (Chemotherapy)

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of Pathologic Complete Responses (pCR) at the Time of Definitive Surgical Resection of Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

    Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.1) for target lesions and assessed by Magnetic Resonance Imagery (MRI): Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions

    Measured: One year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Cisplatin, Pemetrexed and Gemcitabine in people with Non-squamous Cell Non-Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer and Squamous Cell Non-Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Western Regional Medical Center at 1 site in United States.

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 7 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 7 Feb 2018. 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 States. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 25 Oct 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Rate of Pathologic Complete Responses (pCR) at the Time of Definitive Surgical Resection of Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (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 7 Feb 2018.
