About this study

Official title: A Prospective Phase Ⅱ Study of Split-course Chemoradiotherapy For Locally Advanced None-small Cell Lung Cancer

This Phase II study is to determine the efficacy of split-course irradiation with concurrent chemotherapy in locally advanced none-small cell lung cancer patients.

Read the detailed description

This Phase II study is to determine the efficacy of split-course chemoradiotherapy(CCRT) in locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer.

Patients receive four cycles of weekly docetaxel(25mg/㎡) and nedaplatin(25mg/㎡), each of 1 day's duration, combined with split-course thoracic radiotherapy of 51 Gy/17 fractions and 15-18 Gy/5-6 fractions administered in the first and second courses, respectively, with about one-month break. The primary endpoint is progression-free survival, which is calculated from the start of RT to the first identification of disease progression or death. Progression-free survival will be calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Toxicities will be graded according to CTCAE V.4.0.

Being tested
split-course radiotherapy, Concurrent chemotherapy

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • split-course radiotherapyRadiation

    Patients are irradiation at a palliative dose in the initial course: 51Gy/17f to PTV-GTV. The disease is re-evaluated three weeks after the end of the initial course using CT. The patient without disease progression according to the RECIST criteria and had a recovery of lung function should get the additional boost. In the second course, the tumor is repositioned and scanned. The residual tumor is then treated with the second course of radiotherapy. A dose of 15-18 Gy/5-6f is delivered to the residue tumor.

  • Concurrent chemotherapyDrug

    Concurrent chemotherapy consists of weekly docetaxel(25mg/㎡) and nedaplatin(25mg/㎡), each of 1 day's duration.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing split-course radiotherapy and Concurrent chemotherapy in people with Non-small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Sun Yat-sen University at 1 site 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 12 inclusion and 11 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 14 Apr 2020. 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 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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: 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 NCT02573506, which also lists 34 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 14 Apr 2020; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 31 Oct 2026.
