Study of Apatinib in RET Fusion Positive Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

September 3, 2015 updated by: Caicun Zhou, Tongji University

A Phase II Clinical Trial to Investigate Efficacy and Safety of Apatinib as a Single Agent in RET-fusion Gene Positive Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Who Failed to Previous Treatment.

RET fusions are present in 1% to 2% of unselected population of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Existing US Food and Drug Administration-approved inhibitors of RET tyrosine kinase show promising therapeutic effects in a non-small cell lung cancer patients. Apatinib is an oral multi-kinase inhibitors including RET fusions. This study is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of Apatinib in patients with RET fusion positive advanced NSCLC.

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

To observe objective response rate (ORR) of apatinib in RET fusion positive pre-treated advanced NSCLC.

To observe Progression free survival （PFS）. To assess the overall survival (OS). To assess safety and tolerability. To evaluate quality of life. To explore the relationship between biomarkers and the toxicity/efficacy of apatinib.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. 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.

Ages Eligible for Study

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Objective Response Rate (ORR)
Time Frame: change from baseline in tumor size every 6-8 weeks after the initiation of apatinib, up to 24 months
To evaluate ORR every 6-8 weeks after initiation of apatinib
change from baseline in tumor size every 6-8 weeks after the initiation of apatinib, up to 24 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
