About this study

Official title: An Open Label Study of UanQiHuoLi Tang Plus Cisplatin-based Chemotherapy in Advanced Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Wild Type Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

This randomized pilot phase II trial studies the effect of YQ1, a herbal medicine, with cisplatin-based chemotherapy on gut microbiota and immune response in patients with EGFR/ALK wild type non-small cell lung cancer, stage IIIB-IV.

Read the detailed description

This randomized pilot phase II trial studies the effect of YQ1, a herbal medicine, with cisplatin-based chemotherapy on gut microbiota and immune response in patients with EGFR/ALK wild type non-small cell lung cancer, stage IIIB-IV. Chinese herbal medicine was known to be beneficial adjuvant or alternative medicine for cancer treatment. However, the mechanism was unknown. This study wants to investigate the effect and mechanism of YQ1, which was proved to improve the antitumor immunity, to inhibit cancer progression, and to prolong overall survival of lung adenocarcinoma in a series of preclinical studies.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing YQ1 in people with Epithelial Growth Factor Receptor Negative Non-small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Taipei Veterans General Hospital, Taiwan.

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 3 inclusion and 9 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 2 Jan 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

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 (PFS) (time frame: 1 year). 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 2 Jan 2017.
