About this study

Official title: Safety and Efficacy of Anlotinib Hydrochloride Combined With Pemetrexed Plus Cisplatin/Carboplatin (AP) as First Line Treatment for Stage IIIB/IIIC/IV Non-squamous Non-small-cell Lung Cancer

Anlotinib is a novel oral multitarget tyrosine kinase inhibitor and primary targeted to VEGFR, FGFR, PDGFR and c-Kit. The ALTER-0303 trial showed that patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who received anlotinib as third-line or further therapy had more survival benefit. Pemetrexed plus platinum-based chemotherapy (AP) was long considered as the first line treatment in non-squamous NSCLC patients with negative driver mutation. In this dose exploration study, the primary objective is to establish the safety profile of anlotinib combined with AP in non-squamous NSCLC patients by identifying dose limiting toxicity (DLT), maximum tolerance dose (MTD), the recommended phase II dose, and schedule. Secondary objective includes the assessment of preliminary antitumor effect.

Read the detailed description

Anlotinib, a new small molecule inhibitor of multiple receptor tyrosine kinases targeting the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR), fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR), platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) and c-Kit,8,9 has been approved as a third-line treatment for refractory advanced NSCLC by the China Food and Drug Administration (CFDA) on May 9, 2018.10 Previous study in phase II (ALTER0302) trial has shown a better progression-free survival (PFS) in advanced NSCLC patients treated with anlotinib compared those with the placebo (4.8 vs 1.2 months, P<0.0001).11 In phase III (ALTER0303) trial, both the overall survival (OS) and PFS of advanced NSCLC patients were observed to be significantly longer in the anlotinib group (median, 9.6 and 5.4 months) than the placebo group (median, 6.3 and 1.4 months).12 Moreover, anlotinib also displayed manageable toxicity, long circulation, and broad-spectrum antitumor potential.13,14 For the lack of recommended drugs with exactly therapeutic effect in the third-line treatment of SCC patients, it is worth to further analyze the efficacy and specifically clinical observation indicator of anlotinib in this subtype of NSCLC patients. In this dose exploration study, the primary objective is to establish the safety profile of anlotinib combined with AP in treatment-naive non-squamous NSCLC patients by identifying dose limiting toxicity (DLT), maximum tolerance dose (MTD), the recommended phase II dose, and schedule. Secondary objective includes the assessment of preliminary antitumor effect.

What participants receive

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

  • Anlotinib HydrochlorideDrug

    Also called Pemetrexed,cisplatin/carboplatin

    Patients receive pemetrexed with cisplatin/carboplatin once every 3 weeks, and anlotinib (dose escalation) once daily on days 1-14.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Anlotinib Hydrochloride Combined With APExperimentalPatients receive pemetrexed (500mg/m2) with cisplatin (75mg/m2)/carboplatin (area under the curve 5) once every 3 weeks, and anlotinib (dose escalation) once daily on days 1-14 of a 21-day cycle. Anlotinib with AP will be administrated up to 4 cycles followed by maintenance treatment with anlotinib once daily (12mg/d) on days 1-14 of a 21-day cycle until disease progression or treatment intolerance.

What is being measured

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

  1. the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD)

    The primary endpoint was the MTD of anlotinib, at which less than 33% of patients experienced a DLT in the frst treatment cycle. A DLT involving hematological toxicity was defned as grade 4 and above, non-hematological toxicity as grade 3 and above, and liver and kidney function injury as grade 2 and above.

    Measured: 1 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Anlotinib Hydrochloride in people with Non-squamous Non-small-cell Lung Cancer and Anlotinib, run by Sichuan 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 10 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Aug 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 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 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.

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 3 Aug 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?

the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) (time frame: 1 month). 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 3 Aug 2023.
