About this study

Official title: A Retrospective Non-Interventional Study of PD-L1 Prevalence and Clinical Outcomes for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer in Asia-Pacific

MEDI-APEX is a non-interventional, retrospective, cohort study to characterize PD-L1 expression and to assess the clinical characteristics and outcomes among NSCLC patients

Read the detailed description

MEDI-APEX is a non-interventional, retrospective, cohort study to characterize PD-L1 expression among NSCLC patients and to assess the clinical characteristics and outcomes of these patients with specific attention to EGFR, ALK, and KRAS mutations. The study will determine whether PD-L1 is a prognostic factor in the Asia-Pacific patient population; The study will enrol NSCLC patients with disease diagnosis between January 2010 and December 2014; The patients will be recruited from Asia-Pacific, potentially China, Japan, and South Korea. A total of approximately 750 patients will be enrolled in the study; around 250 NSCLC patients will be enrolled per country.

One single cohortOne single cohort of NSCLC patients with disease diagnosis between January 2010 and December 2014. The locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC patients should have initiated 1st line palliative chemotherapy by end of 2014.

What is being measured

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

  1. Characterization of PD-L1 expression among NSCLC patients

    Characterization of PD-L1 expression among locally advanced, unresectable NSCLC patients (Stage III) and newly diagnosed Stage IV or recurrent metastatic NSCLC patients.

    Measured: from NSCLC diagnosis date between January 2010 and December 2014 until index date, defined as the date of data abstraction

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Examination of overall survival by PD-L1 status among NSCLC patients

    Measured: from NSCLC diagnosis date between January 2010 and December 2014 until index date, defined as the date of data abstraction

  2. Examination of disease-free survival (DFS) by PD-L1 status among NSCLC patients

    Measured: from NSCLC diagnosis date between January 2010 and December 2014 until index date, defined as the date of data abstraction

  3. Examination of relapse-free survival (RFS) by PD-L1 status among NSCLC patients

    Measured: from NSCLC diagnosis date between January 2010 and December 2014 until index date, defined as the date of data abstraction

  4. Examination of progression-free survival (PFS) by PD-L1 status among NSCLC patients

    Measured: from NSCLC diagnosis date between January 2010 and December 2014 until index date, defined as the date of data abstraction

  5. Description of patient characteristics by PD-L1 status among NSCLC patients.

    Measured: from NSCLC diagnosis date between January 2010 and December 2014 until index date, defined as the date of data abstraction

  6. Description of the overlap between PD-L1 expression and presence of EGFR, ALK or KRAS mutations among NSCLC patients

    And the prevalence of PD-L1 expression ≥25%, and ≥90%, will be calculated for each mutation status for the EGFR, ALK and KRAS biomarkers.

    Measured: from NSCLC diagnosis date between January 2010 and December 2014 until index date, defined as the date of data abstraction

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Locally Advanced or Metastatic NSCLC, run by AstraZeneca at 4 sites in 3 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 5 inclusion and 1 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 28 Feb 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Japan, China, South Korea. 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.

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?

Characterization of PD-L1 expression among NSCLC patients (time frame: from NSCLC diagnosis date between January 2010 and December 2014 until index date, defined as the date of data abstraction). 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 28 Feb 2018.
