About this study

Official title: FGFR1 Amplification as A Predictor of Efficacy in A Biomarker-Driven Phase II Study of BIBF 1120 in Advanced Squamous Cell Lung Cancer Patients Who Have Failed Up to Two Prior Chemotherapeutic Regimens

This phase II trial studies how well nintedanib works in treating patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer who have failed up to two previous chemotherapy regimens. Nintedanib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To evaluate the 6-month progression-free survival (PFS) rate of fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1) amplified squamous cell lung cancer patients treated with BIBF 1120 (nintedanib).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Compare the 6-month PFS rate for the entire FGFR1 amplified group versus the FGFR1 non-amplified patients.

II. Compare the 6-month PFS rate for each FGFR1 amplified group (low, intermediate, and high) versus historical controls and FGFR1 non-amplified patients.

III. To assess the following endpoints overall and by FGFR1 group: PFS, overall survival (OS), confirmed tumor response rate, and adverse events.

TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. The relation of FGFR1 gene copy number with PFS, OS, confirmed response rate, and adverse events.

II. The relationship fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) polymorphisms with toxicity and efficacy.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive nintedanib orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 8 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. 6-month Progression Free Survival (PFS) Rate Within the Entire FGFR1 Amplified Group

    The 6-month PFS rate was defined as the proportion of patients who were alive and progression-free at 6 months after start of study treatment. Progression is defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. The appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered progression.

    Measured: At 6 months

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Compare the 6-month PFS Rate for the Entire FGFR1 Amplified Group Versus the FGFR1 Non-amplified Patients.

    The 6-month PFS rate was defined as the proportion of patients who were alive and progression-free at 6 months after start of study treatment.

    Measured: Time from study entry to the first of either disease progression or death, assessed at 6 months

  2. Compare the 6-month PFS Rate for Each FGFR1 Amplified Group (Low, Intermediate, and High) Versus FGFR1 Non-amplified Patients.

    The 6-month PFS rate was defined as the proportion of patients who were alive and progression-free at 6 months after start of study treatment.

    Measured: Time from study entry to the first of either disease progression or death, assessed at 6 months

  3. 6-month PFS Rate for Each of the FGFRI Amplified Groups (Low, Intermediate, High) in Comparison to Historical Controls

    The 6-month PFS rate was defined as the proportion of patients who were alive and progression-free at 6 months after start of study treatment.

    Measured: Time from study entry to the first of either disease progression or death, assessed at 6 months

  4. Overall Survival (OS)

    Overall survival (OS) was defined as the time from study entry to death from any cause.

    Measured: From study entry to death from any cause, assessed up to 3 years

  5. Tumor Response Rate

    Tumor Response rate was defined as the proportion of patients who had Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) by RECIST 1.1 Criteria. Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. Any lymph nodes must have a reduction in short axis to < 10 mm. Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters.

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  6. Incidence of Adverse Events (AEs)

    Percentage of participants with adverse events. Incidence of Adverse Events (AEs) was Accessed by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) CTCAE Version 4.0.

    Measured: Up to 30 days post-treatment

  7. Progression Free Survival

    Progression-free survival (PFS) was defined as the time from study entry to the first of either disease progression or death.

    Measured: Time from study entry to the first of either disease progression or death, assessed up to 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing nintedanib in people with Recurrent Non-small Cell Lung Cancer and Squamous Cell Lung Cancer, run by Roswell Park Cancer Institute at 2 sites 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 14 inclusion and 34 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 8 Jun 2017. 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 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 8 Jun 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?

6-month Progression Free Survival (PFS) Rate Within the Entire FGFR1 Amplified Group (time frame: At 6 months). 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 8 Jun 2017.
