About this study

Official title: Neoadjuvant Icotinib With Chemotherapy for Resectable Stage II-IIIB N2 EGFR Mutation-positive Lung Adenocarcinoma: A Phase II Study

Icotinib is a first-generation inhibitor of EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Here we will evaluate neoadjuvant Icotinib with chemotherapy prior to surgery, in patients with resectable stage II-IIIB N2 EGFR mutation-positive NSCLC. The primary endpoint is centrally assessed major pathological response at the time of resection. Secondary endpoints include pathological complete response, objective response rate, R0 resection rate at the time of resection, disease-free survival, and overall survival. Safety and tolerability will also be assessed.

Being tested
Icotinib, Cisplatin, Carboplatin, Pemetrexed
Keywords
NSCLC, EGFR, Icotinib
Medical subject headings

  • CisplatinDrug

    75 mg/m2 (IV,Q3W)

Study groups in NCT05132985
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Icotinib+chemotherapyExperimentalNeoadjuvant chemotherapy (pemetrexed + carboplatin/cisplatin ) will start within 1-3 days from enrollment at 21-day (+/-3 days) intervals (Q3W) prior to surgery. Before surgery a tumor assessment will be done to exclude evidence of progression. Patients with radiographically stable disease or partial response may be considered for operation. Icotinib will be given as a neoadjuvant therapy before surgical resection. The recommended dose of Icotinib is 125mg 1tt(Take 1 tablet 3 times a day) orally. Surgery: Surgery must be done within the 3rd to 4th week (+7 days) from day 21 cycle 2 of neoadjuvant treatment. Adjuvant treatment: Patients receive additional 2 cycles of platinum-based doublet chemotherapy(Researcher decide) on day 1 with intercalated icotinib (D8-15) every 3 weeks, and continued icotinib for 2 years or until the occurrence of disease relapse, metastasis or unacceptable icotinib or chemotherapy toxicity
Receives: Drug: Icotinib; Drug: Cisplatin; Drug: Carboplatin; Drug: Pemetrexed

What is being measured

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

  1. Major pathological response(MPR)

    Patients with tumors with ≤10% residual viable cancer cells (identified by routine hematoxylin and eosin staining) in the lung primary tumor after neoadjuvant treatment at the time of resection will be considered to have had an MPR.

    Measured: Up to approximately 30 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Pathological complete response (pCR)

    Patients with no residual viable tumor cells in any of the specimens (primary tumors, lymph nodes and margins) will be considered to have had a pCR.

    Measured: Up to approximately 30 months

  2. Objective response rate(ORR)

    defined as the sum of the complete response plus partial response divided by the total number of included patients.

    Measured: Up to approximately 30 months

  3. R0 resection rate

    Free resection margins proved microscopically;Systematic nodal dissection in its wider form or, if it is not performed, lobe-specific systematic nodal dissection;There should be no extracapsular extension of tumor in nodes removed separately or those at the margin of the main lung specimen.

    ;The highest mediastinal node that has been removed must be negative.

    Measured: Up to approximately 30 months

  4. Disease-free survival(DFS)

    DFS will be defined as the time from surgery until the first instance of disease recurrence (local or distant) or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.

    Measured: Up to approximately 72 months

  5. Overall survival(OS)

    OS will be defined as the time from randomization until death due to any cause.

    Measured: Up to approximately 72 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Icotinib, Cisplatin and Carboplatin in people with NSCLC and EGF-R Positive Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Liaoning Cancer Hospital & Institute 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 14 inclusion and 8 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Dec 2021. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Major pathological response(MPR) (time frame: Up to approximately 30 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 NCT05132985, which also lists 7 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 10 Dec 2021.
