About this study

Official title: Randomized Study Comparing Two Strategies Carboplatin and Etoposide Topotecan in Patients With SCLC on the Second Row With Relapsed at Least Three Months After Initial Response to Chemotherapy With Platinum-etoposide 6 Cycles

The purpose of this study was to determine prospectively in all patients with SCLC in second line therapy that progression-free survival with the expected reintroduction of platinum / etoposide is greater progression-free survival in the standard arm (topotecan ) in patients who have relapsed at least three months after initial chemotherapy with platinum-etoposide

Read the detailed description

Topotecan is currently the only drug approved in Europe and the United States for the treatment of second line of SCLC when the recovery first line of treatment is considered inappropriate. This raises the problem of knowing when the recovery first line of treatment should be considered appropriate. Secondly, the effectiveness of response to chemotherapy can be predicted based on the response to initial chemotherapy and the time interval after stopping first line treatment. A complete response after initial treatment and a long disease-free interval are predictors of better response to a second-line treatment. There are two groups: the said patients 'sensitive', which correspond to the first-line chemotherapy and who have relapsed at least 90 days after the first-line treatment and a group of so-called patients "Refractory" refers patients who progress in 90 days or patients who have not responded or progressed during first-line treatment. Median survival is very different depending on whether patients with so-called "sensitive" or "refractory".

When relapse occurs six months after the end of the first line chemotherapy, the usual practice is to reintroduce the first-line treatment. This is based on old studies where the number of patients included was low. If the interval of time after the first line of treatment is ≥ three months, two second-line treatment strategies are possible resumption of initial chemotherapy or topotecan. The combination of cisplatin with etoposide have shown high response rate, whatever the time of relapse. There are, however, no randomized study in the literature comparing topotecan to the reintroduction of a platinum salt associated etoposide.

This study is Randomized, multicenter, controlled, open-label, second line, 2 arms.

Arm A : Carboplatin Auc 5 J1 Etoposide 100 mg / m² / J J1 to J3 IV Arm B : topotecan 2.3 mg / m²J1 to J5 po

1 line by Etoposide Cisplatin or carboplatin etoposide Time interval between the first-line chemotherapy and relapse ≥ 90 days (the date is set at J1 of the last cycle) J-28: TDM thoracoabdominal, brain CT or MRI brain, J 7: Biology, quality of life questionnaire (Lung Cancer Symptom Scale). Assessment of tumor response every 6 weeks during chemotherapy post-chemotherapy followed 2nd line: TDM every 8 weeks until progression or death.

The duration of the participation of each patient included in the trial will be from inclusion through 12 months.

The planned total duration of the trial will be 5 years including 4 years of patient inclusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Carboplatin, Etoposide and Topotecan in people with Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by University Hospital, Angers at 1 site in France.

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 15 inclusion and 16 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 25 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 1 site in France. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 Nathalie BAIZE (NaBaize@chu-angers.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Benefit in terms of progression-free survival of a therapeutic strategy (time frame: 18 weeks). 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 NCT02738346, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 25 Apr 2016.
