About this study

Official title: Pemetrexed Plus Apatinib Maintenance Treatment in Patients With Non-squamous Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Patients Who Have Not Progressed After 4 Cycles of Induction Chemotherapy of Pemetrexed in Combination With Platinum-based Regimen: A Prospective, Open, One-arm Clinical Study

In order to further improve the therapeutic efficacy of advanced no-squamous non-small cell lung cancer patients, improve the life cycle, this study will take the standard after treatment pemetrexed combined other anti-angiogenesis drugs to maintain as the direction, so as to provide more over the evidence for the treatment of advanced NSCLC.

Read the detailed description

In patients with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer, patients receiving pemetrexed and platinum-based chemotherapy after 4 cycles of non-progressive evaluation were treated with pemetrexed plus apatinib. Until the disease progresses, there are intolerable side effects or the patient requests to withdraw from the study. It is planned to include 20 subjects.

Dosing regimen: Apatinib 500mg po qd (If there is a 3-4 degree toxic side reaction after 14 days of administration, the dose can be lowered to 250mg qd); Pemetrexed 500 mg/m2 d1×q3w; Until the patient progresses, the toxicity is intolerable, the patient withdraws his knowledge, or the investigator judges that the medication must be discontinued.

Being tested
Apatinib, Pemetrexed

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression free survival(PFS)

    From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to three years

    Measured: Up to three years

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Overall survival (OS)

    From date of randomization until the date of death from any cause, assessed up to three years

    Measured: Up to three years

  2. Disease control rate

    Investigators will assess treatment response according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors 1.1(RECIST1.1).DCR includes CR, PR, SD.Complete remission (CR): All target lesions disappeared completely except for nodular disease. All target nodules must be reduced to normal size (short axis <10 mm). All target lesions must be evaluated.Partial Remission (PR): The sum of the diameters of all measurable target lesions is ≥30% below baseline. The sum of the target nodules uses a short diameter, and the sum of all other target lesions uses the longest diameter. All target lesions must be evaluated.Stable disease (SD): The extent of target lesion reduction did not reach PR, and the degree of increase did not reach PD level. Between the two, the minimum value of the sum of diameters could be used as a reference.

    Measured: Up to three years

  3. Objective response rate

    ORR is defined as the percentage of subjects having achieved confirmed Complete Response + Partial Response as best overall response according to radiological assessments.ORR includes CR,PR.Stable disease (SD): The extent of target lesion reduction did not reach PR, and the degree of increase did not reach PD level. Between the two, the minimum value of the sum of diameters could be used as a reference.Stable disease (SD): The extent of target lesion reduction did not reach PR, and the degree of increase did not reach PD level. Between the two, the minimum value of the sum of diameters could be used as a reference.

    Measured: Up to three years

  4. Health related quality of life

    HRQoL will be evaluated based on the patient's response to the FACT-L questionnaire. The FACT-L questionnaire was validated to assess the quality of life of patients with lung cancer. The 36-item questionnaire consists of four aspects: physical status, functional status, emotional status, and social/family status. The answer consists of "none" to "very" different levels of choice. The FACT-L questionnaire has a total score of 0 to 136 points. Higher scores indicate poor patient quality of life.

    Measured: Up to three years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Apatinib and Pemetrexed in people with Advanced Non-squamous Non-small-cell Lung Cancer, run by Xinqiao Hospital of Chongqing 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 12 inclusion and 22 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Feb 2024. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Progression free survival(PFS) (time frame: Up to three 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 28 Feb 2024.
