Carboplatin And Paclitaxel With Or Without CP-751, 871 (An IGF-1R Inhibitor) For Advanced NSCLC Of Squamous, Large Cell And Adenosquamous Carcinoma Histology

The study was discontinued on December 29, 2009 due to an analysis by an independent Data Safety Monitoring Committee indicating that the addition of CP-751,871 \[figitumumab\] to paclitaxel plus carboplatin would be unlikely to meet the primary endpoint of improving overall survival compared to paclitaxel plus carboplatin alone. The DSMC recommendation to terminate the trial was based on futility, not on specific safety concerns; however, the DSMC recommended to investigate hyperglycemia as a potential contributor to the morbidity of the patients.
