About this study

Official title: Phase II Clinical Trial of Trilaciclib in Combination With Docetaxel for Second-Line and Beyond Treatment of Locally Advanced or Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

This study is a prospective, single arm phase II study aimed at patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer undergoing second-line or beyond treatment. The aim is to evaluate the bone marrow protective effect of trilaciclib before docetaxel chemotherapy for locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC.

Read the detailed description

After obtaining informed consent from patients diagnosed with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC through pathology, 33 eligible subjects who met the inclusion criteria were selected to receive the treatment regimen of trilaciclib before docetaxel chemotherapy, with a treatment period of 4 cycles.

Record the dynamic changes of whole blood cell count; Hematological toxicity, including febrile neutropenia and associated infections; Transfusion of blood products and supplementation of hematopoietic raw materials. Perform tumor imaging evaluation according to RECIST 1.1. Baseline imaging examination shall be conducted within 21 days prior to the first administration, and tumor imaging evaluation shall be conducted every 6 weeks (± 7 days) from the first study drug administration, or the frequency of imaging evaluation may be increased when there are clinical indications. The imaging examination time should follow the calendar day and should not be adjusted due to treatment delay or termination. Subjects who terminate the study drug treatment due to intolerable toxicity or other non disease progression reasons should continue to receive tumor evaluation follow-up until disease progression, withdrawal from the study, or death (whichever occurs earliest)

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of grade ≥ 3 neutropenia during chemotherapy treatment

    Measured: Time from date of first dose of trilaciclib and docetaxel through 30 days following the last dose of trilaciclib and docetaxel

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Incidence rate of grade 3 or 4 thrombocytopenia

    Measured: Time from date of first dose of trilaciclib and docetaxel through 30 days following the last dose of trilaciclib and docetaxel

  2. Incidence rate of grade 3 or 4 anemia during chemotherapy treatment

    Measured: Time from date of first dose of trilaciclib and docetaxel through 30 days following the last dose of trilaciclib and docetaxel

  3. Incidence rate of febrile neutropenia

    Measured: Time from date of first dose of trilaciclib and docetaxel through 30 days following the last dose of trilaciclib and docetaxel

  4. Usage rate of symptomatic treatments for myelosuppression

    such as granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) (not for prevention), thrombopoietin (TPO), interleukin-11 (IL-11), erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESA), iron supplements, etc

    Measured: Time from date of first dose of trilaciclib and docetaxel through 30 days following the last dose of trilaciclib and docetaxel

  5. Objective response rate

    Measured: 12 months after the last subject participating in

  6. Disease control rate

    Measured: 12 months after the last subject participating in

  7. Duration of response

    Measured: 12 months after the last subject participating in

  8. Progression-free survival

    Measured: 12 months after the last subject participating in

  9. Overall survival

    Measured: From the date of randomization to the date of death for patients who died in the study due to any cause, or to the last contact date known to be alive for those who survived as of the data cutoff date, assessed up to 30 months.

  10. Incidence rate of adverse events

    Measured: Time from date of first dose of trilaciclib and docetaxel through 90 days following the last dose of trilaciclib and docetaxel

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Trilaciclib combined with Docetaxel in people with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer and Myelosuppression, run by The First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen 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 13 inclusion and 9 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jun 2025. 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?

Incidence of grade ≥ 3 neutropenia during chemotherapy treatment (time frame: Time from date of first dose of trilaciclib and docetaxel through 30 days following the last dose of trilaciclib and docetaxel). 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 8 Jun 2025.
