About this study

Official title: A Randomized Phase II Trial of Etoposide Plus Lobaplatin Versus Etoposide Plus Cisplatin in Combination With Concurrent Thoracic Radiotherapy for Patients With Limited Small-cell Lung Cancer

This randomized phase II study compare survival outcomes and toxicity of two chemotherapy regimens (etoposide plus lobaplatin or etoposide plus cisplatin) in combination with concurrent thoracic radiation therapy (TRT) for limited stage small cell lung cancer.

Read the detailed description

Lobaplatin is a platinum complex with DNA alkylating activity that was developed by ASTA Medica (Degussa) for the treatment of cancer. Lobaplatin as the third-generation platinum antineoplastic agent, showed promising antineoplastic effects in variety of preclinical test tumor models. A randomized, multicenter phase III study showed that Lobaplatin plus etoposide (EL) regimen is not inferiority to cisplatin plus etoposide (EP) regimen in terms of PFS, the tolerance and QOL with EL regimen are better than that with EP regimen. Thus, we perform this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of EL and EP regimens concurrently with thoracic radiotherapy in patients with limited-stage SCLC.

Being tested
etoposide plus lobaplatin, etoposide plus cisplatin

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression-free survival(PFS)

    PFS is defined as the duration of time from start of treatment to time of progression or death, whichever occurs first.

    Measured: up to 12 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Overall survival(OS)

    Overall survival is defined as the time interval from date of diagnosis to date of death from any cause

    Measured: up to 24 months

  2. Treatment toxicities

    To assess and record nausea, vomiting, hematologic toxicity,radiation oesophagitis and other treantment complications by CTCAE v4.0

    Measured: up to 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing etoposide plus lobaplatin and etoposide plus cisplatin in people with Small-cell Lung Cancer, run by Guizhou Medical University 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 8 inclusion and 3 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 5 Feb 2020. 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.

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?

Contact ShengFa Su, PhD,MD (0086-851-86513076, sushengfa2005@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Progression-free survival(PFS) (time frame: up to 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03613597, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 5 Feb 2020.
