About this study

Official title: An Open Label, Single-arm Phase IV Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Afatinib as Second-line Therapy for Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) Harbouring an EGFR Mutation (Del19 or L858R) Who Have Failed First-line Treatment With Platinum-based Chemotherapy

The objectives of this single-arm, open-label trial are to assess the efficacy and safety of afatinib as second line treatment for patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harbouring a common EGFR mutation who have failed first-line platinum-based chemotherapy and to demonstrate that the efficacy and safety are comparable to the results seen in previous trials.

What is being measured

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

  1. Objective Tumour Response (Complete Response [CR], Partial Response [PR]) as Assessed by the Investigator According to the RECIST Version 1.1

    As Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions and assessed by Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI): Complete Response (CR), disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), =30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions

    Measured: Post baseline tumour-imaging was performed at every 8 weeks until Week 56 and then every 12 weeks; up to 802 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Progression-free Survival (PFS) as Assessed by the Investigator According to RECIST 1.1.

    Progression-free survival (PFS) is the time from treatment start to disease progression (or death if the patient died before progression). PFS as assessed based on investigator review according to the response evaluation criteria in solid tumours (RECIST) version 1.1.

    Measured: Post baseline tumour-imaging was performed at every 8 weeks until Week 56 and then every 12 weeks; up to 802 days

  2. Disease Control (CR, PR, Stable Disease [SD]) as Assessed by the Investigator According to RECIST 1.1

    As Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions and assessed by MRI: Complete Response (CR), disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), =30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Stable Disease (SD), neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for disease progression.

    Measured: Post baseline tumour-imaging was performed at every 8 weeks until Week 56 and then every 12 weeks; up to 802 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Afatinib in people with Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung, run by Boehringer Ingelheim at 21 sites in 7 countries.

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 6 inclusion and 4 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 17 Dec 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 21 sites in Romania, Serbia, Thailand, Egypt, Poland and 2 more countries. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 17 Dec 2018). 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?

Objective Tumour Response (Complete Response [CR], Partial Response [PR]) as Assessed by the Investigator According to the RECIST Version 1.1 (time frame: Post baseline tumour-imaging was performed at every 8 weeks until Week 56 and then every 12 weeks; up to 802 days). 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 17 Dec 2018.
