About this study

Official title: Phase I Study of PET/CT-directed Hyperfractionated Radiation Dose Escalation With Concurrent Weekly Carboplatin and Paclitaxel in Stage III Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

The goal of this study is to find the maximum tolerable dose of radiation that can be delivered combined with chemotherapy (carboplatin \& paclitaxel) in patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Read the detailed description

Concurrent chemoradiotherapy is the standard of care for unresectable stage III NSCLC based on the results of phase III randomised trials. The current standard radiation therapy dose has remained 60- Gy at -2 Gy/fraction for nearly four decades (60Gy), with local disease control rates of approximately 50% and a median overall survival of only 18 months.These results are suboptimal and more effective treatment regimens are needed.

We hypothesize that hyperfractionated radiation dose escalation to residual tumor volumes after standard chemoradiotherapy as defined by positron emission tomography (PET) /computed tomography (CT) would improve local control and overall survival while reducing the acute and late normal tissue toxicity.

Being tested
radiochemotherapy 1, radiochemotherapy 2, radiochemotherapy 3, radiochemotherapy 4, radiochemotherapy 5

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing radiochemotherapy 1, radiochemotherapy 2 and radiochemotherapy 3 in people with Non Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Shanghai General Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine 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 9 inclusion and 8 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 3 May 2019. 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.

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?

Maximum Tolerated Dose (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 3 May 2019.
