What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Subjects With a Response at 12 Weeks According to RECIST 1.1 for the Combination of Pembrolizumab and Itacitinib Among Patients With Previously Untreated, PD-L1 Positive Metastatic NSCLC.

    Responses will be compared subject's baseline assessment and historical controls using pembrolizumab monotherapy.

    Measured: 12 weeks

  2. Number of Subjects With Toxicities (CTCAE v5.0 Scoring) of Pembrolizumab and Itacitinib in Patients With Previously Untreated, PD-L1 Positive Metastatic NSCLC

    Number of subjects treated with the combination.

    Measured: 16 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Number of Participants Who Had a Progression Free Survival (PFS) Treated With Pembrolizumab and Itacitinib.

    Number of participants who remained progression free at week 12

    Measured: 12 weeks

  2. Number of Participants Treated With Pembrolizumab and Itacitinib, Who Had a Minimum Duration of Response (DOR) of 12 Weeks.

    Measured: 12 weeks

  3. Overall Survival (OS) for Subjects Treated With Pembrolizumab and Itacitinib.

    Number of subjects treated with pembrolizumab and itacitinib that survived to week 16.

    Measured: 16 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Itacitinib and Pembrolizumab in people with Non Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by University of Pennsylvania 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 9 inclusion and 18 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 13 Sep 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 13 Sep 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?

Number of Subjects With a Response at 12 Weeks According to RECIST 1.1 for the Combination of Pembrolizumab and Itacitinib Among Patients With Previously Untreated, PD-L1 Positive Metastatic NSCLC. (time frame: 12 weeks). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 13 Sep 2023.
