Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients with stage III NSCLC who are eligible for curative intent concurrent chemotherapy and radiotherapy as well as willing to adhere to the study protocol will be enrolled in the study. They receive standard radiotherapy (60 Gy in 30 fractions of 2 Gy) with photons (group 1) or protons (group 2) according to the standard of care. Eligible patients will thereafter receive standard durvalumab immune therapy for 12 months. Eligibility criteria for this study are therefore similar to those for standard of care treatment.

Who may be able to join

  • Pathological diagnosis of adequately staged (according to standard practice using chest-CT, FDG-PET, brain imaging MRI/CT) NSCLC
  • Participant is willing and able to give informed consent for participation in the trial
  • Aged 18 years or above
  • Scheduled to receive one of the following two therapeutic strategies:
  • Concurrent chemotherapy and radiotherapy with photons (60 Gy in 30 fractions of 2 Gy) followed by durvalumab in patients with stage III NSCLC
  • Concurrent chemotherapy and radiotherapy with protons (60 Gy in 30 fractions of 2 Gy) followed by durvalumab in patients with stage III NSCLC
  • Able and willing to comply with all trial requirements

Who cannot join

  • Mixed non-small cell lung cancer with other histology such as small cell lung cancer
  • Not able to comply with the study protocol
  • Less than 18 years old
  • Pregnancy or not able to comply with adequate contraception in women with child baring potential
  • Previous radiotherapy to the chest for benign or malignant conditions, including radiation for breast cancer
  • Previous malignancy treated with chemotherapy, immune therapy or radiotherapy (irrespective of when this happened)
  • Previous malignancies treated with surgery only are allowed if 2 years or more before inclusion in the present study

About this study

Official title: Improving Standard of Care Lifestyle Support for Stage III NSCLC Cancer Patients

Offering an early-initiated supportive care program to stage III NSCLC patients to prevent deterioration of performance status and increase compliance of patients that complete chemoradiation as well as the patients receiving 12 months of durvalumab.

Read the detailed description

In inoperable Stage III Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC), consolidation immune checkpoint inhibition with the PD-L1 inhibitor durvalumab, given within 6 weeks after completion of concurrent platinum-based chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) for 12 months results in remarkable improvement of 3-year overall survival rates (57% vs 43.5%). This tri-modal therapy has become the new standard of care. Unfortunately, the tri-modal therapy frequently causes adverse events such as fatigue and, to a much lesser degree, cough, dyspnea and pneumonitis, resulting in treatment cessation in 15% - 53% of the patients (15%) (53%). For the most optimal overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS), compliance to the full treatment regimen, i.e. in the ideal situation 100% of patients completing their full course of CCRT and receiving durvalumab for one year, is expected to have significant and relevant beneficial effects. Optimizing patients' fitness is essential in order to handle the tough full treatment regimen.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Non Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Maastricht Radiation Oncology.

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 7 inclusion and 7 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 6 Sep 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

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?

Compliance (time frame: 12 months). 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 6 Sep 2023.
