About this study

NSCLC patients with metastatic disease who have failed at least one prior treatment and have a minimum of two metastatic lesions (at least one measurable), are eligible if they have an ECOG Performance Status of 0-1. Patients will receive on Day 1, ipilimumab (every 6 weeks) concurrently with radiation (6Gy x 5 fractions). Nivolumab (every 2 weeks) will be given in addition to ipilimumab on day 22.

Read the detailed description

NSCLC patients with metastatic disease who have failed at least one prior treatment and have a minimum of two metastatic lesions (at least one measurable), are eligible if they have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status of 0-1.

Non-ablative radiotherapy (6GyX5) is directed to one lesion during a first immunotherapy treatment with Ipilimumab 3 mg/kg (± 24hrs from first RT dose). On day 22 the combined treatment of ipilimumab plus nivolumab will start (nivolumab 240mg q 2 weeks, ipilimumab 1mg/kg q 6 weeks), and administered until evidence of progression.

Patients are re-imaged at Week 9 (day 70 ± 7) to evaluate for response (defined as an objective response by RECIST of the measurable metastatic sites outside the radiation field). This response will be evaluated assessing clinical and positron emission computed tomography (PET/CT) responses in the non-irradiated measurable metastatic sites using RECIST 1.1.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Ipilimumab, Nivolumab and Radiation therapy in people with Non Small Cell Lung Cancer Metastatic, run by Weill Medical College of Cornell University at 1 site in United States.

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 21 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Apr 2023. 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 United States. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 24 Apr 2023). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Enhance Overall Response Rate (ORR) to the Combination of Ipi/Nivo in Chemo-refractory NSCLC and Double the ORR of Ipi/RT, From 18% Based on Intent to Treat to 36%. (time frame: 2.5 Months, 6 Months, 3 years). 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 24 Apr 2023.
