What is being measured

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

  1. Objective response rate (ORR)

    To evaluate the efficacy of anti-tumor

    Measured: baseline up to approximately 2 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. overall survival (OS)

    To evaluate the efficacy of anti-tumor

    Measured: baseline up to approximately 6 months

  2. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    To evaluate the efficacy of anti-tumor

    Measured: baseline up to approximately 12 months

  3. Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events [Safety and Tolerability]

    To identify the incidence of AE and SAE in clinical trial

    Measured: From the initiation of the first dose to 14 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Irinotecan Hydrochloride Liposome Injection, 5-FU and LV in people with Neuroendocrine Carcinomas (NEC), run by Beijing GoBroad Hospital 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 18 inclusion and 18 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 11 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

Contact Ming Lu (15801292978, minglupku@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Objective response rate (ORR) (time frame: baseline up to approximately 2 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 11 Jun 2025.
