About this study

Official title: OMEGA, A Randomized Trial of Local Ablative Therapy Vs. Conventional Treatment in Oligometastatic NSCLC

Oligometastatic lung cancer (OM-NSCLC) seems to be associated with a better prognosis than usual Stage IV non-small cell lung cancer when radical local therapy of all metastatic sites is administered but the impact of such an approach on overall survival and quality of life remains to be defined by adequately powered phase III trials.

A consortium of tertiary referral centres involved in Lung Cancer management at the national level was established to launch a randomized trial of local ablative therapy in OM-NSCLC patients with potentially resectable or locally controlled primary tumors has been designed.

Read more

Inclusion criteria include adequate performance status, primary tumor controlled or controllable staging with whole-body FDG PET scan and brain MRI, fit to receive at least 3 cycles of platinum-based doublet chemotherapy, or immunotherapy or targeted agents according to molecular profile.

Exclusion criteria include cerebral oligometastasis alone (will receive local therapy in any case), metastasis in sites where normal radiotherapy constraints cannot be met, multiple subsolid nodules in the absence of extrapulmonary metastasis, prior malignant tumor with some exceptions, relevant co-morbidities that would significantly reduce life expectancy on their own.

Patients with synchronous or metachronous oligometastatic lung cancer (1-3 metastatic lesions) will be randomized to local ablative therapy + standard treatment Vs. standard treatment. Balancing between study arms will be performed according to synchronous vs. metachronous presentation, Number of oligometastases, Nodal status and Oncogene-addiction or PDL-1 expression. Primary outcome will be Overall Survival (OS) from randomization. The sample size is set to 195 patients.

Disease state and life status will be assessed on a 3-monthly basis by physical examination, whole-body CT scan plus repeat PET-scan if needed and Brain MRI if brain metastasis at enrolment. Toxicity and adverse events will be assessed according to NCI-Common Terminology Criteria. And RTOG criteria. Quality of life will be assessed at randomization and after six months by the SF36/LCSS

Read the detailed description

Lung cancer is a systemic disease with local manifestations that are ultimately responsible for a reduced life expectancy in a relatively large subgroup of metastatic lung cancer patients.

In such a subgroup, local ablative therapy of the primary tumor and of all metastatic lesions with a combination of surgery and/or radiotherapy should lead to a clinically significant improvement of their overall survival with acceptable morbidity and preserved Quality of Life compared with medical treatment alone

OMEGA is a randomized trial of local ablative therapy in NSCLC patients with potentially resectable or locally controlled primary tumors and oligometastatic disease

The decision to randomise OM-NSCLC patients either before any systemic therapy or after 3 months of treatment without progression is left to the recruiting centre(s).

Local ablative therapy will be administered in any case to patients harboring cerebral oligometastasis

Statistical methods

Dynamic balancing as per the method of Pocock and Simon [16] according to:

  • Synchronous vs. metachronous presentation
  • Number of oligometastases (1 vs. 2-3) including extrathoracic N3 disease
  • Nodal status (N0 vs. N+)
  • Oncogene-addiction (EGFR/ALK/ROS-1 driven or PDL1 >50% vs <50% vs. wild type)
Being tested
Surgical removal of primary and/or of all oligometastases, Non-surgical LAT, Standard medical therapy

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Surgical removal of primary and/or of all oligometastasesProcedure or surgery

    Standard lobectomy or segmentectomy if tumor resectable without pneumonectomy (prefer lobectomy if cardiorespiratory function is not or only moderately compromised, prefer segmentectomy if primary tumor less than 2 cm or cardiorespiratory function is more than moderately compromised but still permissive) Mediastinal lymph node dissection (at least 8 lymphnodes from at least 3 stations including station 7).

  • Non-surgical LATRadiation

    Non-surgical LAT may be carried out either by SABR or SBRT or RFA according to site of metastasis, local expertise and availability of resources.

  • Standard medical therapyDrug

    platinum-based doublet according to local protocols or targeted agents according to EGFR/ALK/ROS-1 mutational status or immunotherapy agents according to PDL1 expression.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Surgical removal of primary and/or of all oligometastases, Non-surgical LAT and Standard medical therapy in people with Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung, run by Azienda Ospedaliera Universitaria Integrata Verona at 1 site in Italy.

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 13 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 18 Jan 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 Italy. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 Maurizio V Infante, MD (+390458123335, maurizio.infante@aovr.veneto.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Overall survival (time frame: from date of randomization until date of death from any cause up to 60 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 NCT03827577, which also lists 13 linked publications.

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 18 Jan 2020.
