Cisplatin/Vinorelbine/Bevacizumab Followed by Docetaxel/Gemcitabine/Bevacizumab Versus the Cisplatin/Docetaxel/Bevacizumab Combination in Locally Advanced or Metastatic NSCLC

June 24, 2014 updated by: Hellenic Oncology Research Group

Sequential Cisplatin/Vinorelbine/Bevacizumab Followed by Docetaxel/Gemcitabine/Bevacizumab Versus Cisplatin/Docetaxel/Bevacizumab in Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Non Small Cell Lung Cancer

This trial will evaluate whether the sequential administration of Cisplatin/Vinorelbine/Bevacizumab followed by Docetaxel/Gemcitabine/Bevacizumab versus the Cisplatin/Docetaxel/Bevacizumab combination as first line treatment offers a survival advantage in patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

An unanswered question in first line treatment of non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is whether the administration of more than 2 active drugs provides greater efficacy than a two-drug combination. Docetaxel/gemcitabine combination is a well tolerated regimen, which has comparable efficacy to docetaxel/cisplatin or vinorelbine/cisplatin. In a recent phase II study in first line treatment of advanced or metastatic NSCLC, the sequential administration of vinorelbine/cisplatin followed by docetaxel/gemcitabine produced a response rate of 45.8% and a 1-year survival rate of 51%. The addition of bevacizumab to a platinum-based regimen provided a survival benefit in patients with advanced or metastatic NSCLC.

Phase

Phase

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.
