  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Patients must have histologically or cytologically confirmed stage IIIB or stage IV NSCLC with measurable disease at initial presentation prior to chemotherapy. See Section 8.4.1 for measurable disease parameters.
  • Patients must have had a complete response (CR), partial response (PR) or stable disease (SD) after 4-6 cycles of first-line chemotherapy. Tumor response will be assessed by RECIST criteria version 1.1.
  • Patients must have fully recovered from the acute toxic effects of all prior chemotherapy, or radiotherapy before entering this study.
  • Myelosuppressive chemotherapy: At least 21 days elapsed from end of treatment before registration (42 days if prior nitrosourea).
  • Hematopoietic growth factors: At least 7 days since the completion of therapy with a growth factor.
  • Other: For agents that have known adverse events occurring beyond 7 days after administration, this period must be extended beyond the time during which adverse events are known to occur.

Treating investigator must affirm intention to perform another serum or urine UPT 24 hours before initiating lenalidomide treatment.
  • FCBP: A female of childbearing potential (FCBP) is a sexually mature female who: 1) has not undergone a hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy; or 2) has not been naturally postmenopausal (amenorrhea following cancer therapy does not rule out childbearing potential) for at least 24 consecutive months (i.e., has had menses at any time in the preceding 24 consecutive months).

Because there is an unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with lenalidomide, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated with lenalidomide.

About this study

Official title: A Pilot Study of Lenalidomide Maintenance Therapy in Stage IIIB/IV Non-small Cell Lung Cancer After First-line Chemotherapy

The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of maintenance therapy with daily low dose lenalidomide in patients with stage IIIB/IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after first line chemotherapy. Investigators expect this treatment approach will delay disease progression by boosting the patient's anti-tumor immune response. Investigators hypothesize that 10 mg/day of lenalidomide can be administered safely as maintenance therapy and improve progression free survival time.

Read the detailed description

For patients with stage IIIB/IV non-small cell lung cancer, who did not progress after first line chemotherapy, lenalidomide 10mg/day orally will be administered as maintenance therapy until disease progression or death.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Lenalidomide in people with Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung, run by Jun Zhang 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 24 inclusion and 12 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 18 Jan 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 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.

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 stopped early (reason given: Study did not enroll enough subjects to make a statistically sound conclusion.). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Progression free survival (time frame: up to 6 months from the date of registration). 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 NCT02018523, which also lists 27 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 18 Jan 2018.
