Trial summary

UGT1A1 gene *28 (6/6 and 6/7) and *6 (G/G and G/A) is related to low probability of diarrhea and UGT1A1 gene *28 (7/7) and *6 (A/A)is related to high probability of… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: An Open, Randomized, Parallel Control, Multiple-center Phase II Trial of Two Different Dosages of Irinotecan Combined With Cisplatin Scheme in Extensive Disease-Small Cell Lung Cancer

As the gene polymorphism of uridine diphosphate glucuronosyl transferase 1A1(UGT1A1)is related to the side effect of diarrhea induced by irinotecan. UGT1A1 gene *28 (6/6 and 6/7) and *6 (G/G and G/A) is related to low probability of diarrhea and UGT1A1 gene *28 (7/7) and *6 (A/A)is related to high probability of diarrhea. The purpose of this study is to find out the efficacy and side effect between two different dosages of irinotecan combined with cisplatin scheme in extensive disease-small cell lung cancer with UGT1A1 gene *28 (6/6 and 6/7)and *6 (G/G and G/A), based on the hypothesis that the UGT1A1 gene *28 (7/7) and *6 (A/A)is few in the Chinese population and increasing the dose of irinotecan can improve the efficacy without increasing the side effect in the patients with UGT1A1 gene *28 (6/6 and 6/7)*6 (G/G and G/A).

What is being measured

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

  1. progression-free survival

    Measured: The first day of treatment to the date that disease progression is reported; assessed up to 3 years

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. overall survival

    Measured: the first day of treatment to death or last survival confirm date; assesed up to 3 years

  2. Tumor response rate

    the ratio between the number of responders and number of patients assessable for tumor response

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  3. Toxicity

    Measured: the first date of treatment to 30 days after the last dose of study drug

  4. Quality of life

    Measured: the day before every cycle of chemotherapy; 30 days after the last dose of study drug

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Irinotecan and Cisplatin in people with Small Cell Lung Carcinoma, run by Third Military Medical University at 3 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 11 inclusion and 8 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 1 Apr 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 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 Xueqin Yang, M.D. (+86-023-68757158, yangxueqin@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

progression-free survival (time frame: The first day of treatment to the date that disease progression is reported; assessed up to 3 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01977235, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 1 Apr 2016.
