NCT00066222
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Combining more than one chemotherapy drug with radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving cisplatin and etoposide together with radiation therapy works in treating patients with limited-stage small cell lung cancer.
NCT00093756
This phase I/II trial (phase I closed to accrual as of 09/29/2009) is studying the side effects and best dose of bortezomib, paclitaxel, and carboplatin when given with radiation therapy and to see how well they work in treating patients with stage IIIA or stage IIIB non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. Bortezomib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Bortezomib may increase the effectiveness of paclitaxel and carboplatin by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drugs. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Giving bortezomib, paclitaxel, and carboplatin together with radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells.
NCT00828139
This randomized phase II trial is studying topotecan to see how well it works when given with or without aflibercept in treating patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as topotecan, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Combinations of biological substances in aflibercept may be able to carry tumor-killing substances directly to small cell lung cancer cells. Aflibercept may also stop the growth of small cell lung cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor. It is not yet known whether topotecan is more effective with or without aflibercept in treating patients with small cell lung cancer.
NCT02087241
The aim of this study is to combine AZD1775 with standard front-line chemotherapy in subjects with advanced NSCLC.
NCT01154140
This study will evaluate the anti-cancer effects of crizotinib when compared with standard chemotherapy in patients with ALK positive lung cancer.
NCT01160601
This is a randomized, open-label, multicenter, phase 2 study comparing Paclitaxel/Carboplatin with or without bavituximab in patients that have previously untreated locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
NCT00417040
This pilot clinical trial studies how well using the internet to collect symptoms and the ability to carry out daily activities works in patients with enrolled on Cancer and Leukemia Group B (CALGB) studies. A study that evaluates a patient's ability to use a clinic waiting room computer to report their symptoms and their ability to carry out daily activities may help doctors understand a patient's use of a computer to report symptoms.
NCT02134015
1. Part A: Subjects will receive Patritumab or placebo with erlotinib. Progression-free survival will be the primary outcome. Subjects will need to have Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) wild-type, locally advance or metastatic NSCLC and have their cancer progressed after at least one prior systemic anti-cancer therapy, available recent or archival tumor specimen and may not have had previous EGFR-targeted regimen, anti-HER2 (Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2), anti-HER3, or anti-HER4 therapy. Subjects may have high heregulin or low heregulin. 2. Part B: Subjects will receive Patritumab or placebo with erlotinib. Overall survival will be the primary outcome. Subjects will need to have EGFR wild-type, locally advance or metastatic NSCLC and have their cancer progressed after at least one prior systemic anti-cancer therapy, available recent or archival tumor specimen and may not have had previous EGFR-targeted regimen, anti-HER2, anti-HER3, or anti-HER4 therapy. Only subjects with high heregulin will be enrolled.
NCT02271139
This is an open-label, multicenter, single-arm, expanded access study designed to provide alectinib to participants with ALK-rearranged NSCLC after disease progression on or intolerance to prior ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy. Participants will receive alectinib until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, patient or physician decision to discontinue treatment, death, alectinib becomes commercially available in the United States following approval of alectinib by the FDA, or the Sponsor decides to close the trial, whichever occurs first (approximately 15 months).
NCT01395914
The administration of Anamorelin HCl in patients with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer-Cachexia (NSCLC-C) is expected to increase appetite, lean body mass, weight gain, and muscle strength.
NCT00283244
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Erlotinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether gemcitabine and erlotinib are more effective when given alone or together in treating non-small cell lung cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying gemcitabine and erlotinib to compare how well they work when given alone or together as first-line therapy in treating older patients with stage IIIB or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer.
NCT01414595
RATIONALE: Studying samples of tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer. PURPOSE: This research trial studies tissue samples from patients with non-small cell lung cancer.
NCT01951690
This is a Phase II, open-label, multicenter, multi cohort, study of VS-6063 (defactinib), a focal adhesion kinase inhibitor, in patients with KRAS mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). NSCLC with a KRAS mutation is required for study entry and subjects will be enrolled into 1 of 4 cohorts based on the status of their INK4a/Arf and p53 mutations. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate if VS-6063 (defactinib) improves PFS within each cohort. The safety and tolerability of VS-6063, tumor response rate, progression free survival and overall survival will also be assessed. The pharmacodynamic effects of VS-6063 (defactinib) will be examined in a tumor biopsy and a blood sample.
NCT01727076
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of recombinant interleukin-15 in treating patients with melanoma, kidney cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, or head and neck cancer that has spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment. Recombinant interleukin-(IL)15 is a biological product, a protein, made naturally in the body and when made in the laboratory may help stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing.
NCT02276560
The purpose of this research study is to determine whether giving cisplatin and nab-paclitaxel before surgery will reduce the presence of disease in certain areas of the lung at the time of surgery.
NCT00619424
This is an open-label, two-arm, Phase I, dose escalation study to evaluate the safety and tolerability and to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of pazopanib in combination with erlotinib (Arm A) or pazopanib in combination with pemetrexed (Arm B) in patients with advanced solid tumors. Patients will be enrolled in cohorts of 3 (in each arm) to receive escalating doses of pazopanib and erlotinib or pazopanib and pemetrexed. Dose escalation schemas for each study arm are described in the protocol. For each arm, the MTD regimen will be defined as the highest dose combination of the agents where no more than one out of six patients experiences a dose-limiting toxicity. Six to twelve additional patients in each arm will be studied with the MTD regimen to evaluate toxicity and pharmacokinetics. In arm A (erlotinib), a run-in phase with each drug separately will allow an evaluation of pharmacokinetics with each drug separately and also for the two drugs in combination. This will allow an assessment of potential drug-drug interactions. Pharmacokinetic endpoints will be AUC, Cmax, tmax and t1/2 of pazopanib, erlotinib, and pemetrexed, as well as pemetrexed clearance before and after administration of pazopanib in the extension cohort of Arm B. Antitumor activity will be assessed using RECIST criteria.
NCT00046111
The purpose of this study is to compare two capsules of topotecan made by slightly different methods. This will be done by giving the drug made by the two different methods to patients orally and testing blood levels.
NCT01336842
The purpose of this study is to find out if panobinostat taken with cisplatin and pemetrexed can be used safely without increasing side effects and that the combination will have a better effect than platinum-based doublet chemotherapy alone.
NCT01858389
This is a Phase 2 study of oral dacomitinib given every 12 hours over days 1-4 of each two-week cycle to patients with Non-small cell lung cancer. The study includes two groups of patients, those whose tumor has a documented T790M mutation, and those without this mutation. All patients will receive repeated cycles of dacomitinib until disease progression, occurrence of unacceptable toxicity, or other withdrawal criteria are met.
NCT01966003
