Non Small Cell Lung Cancer

Brief summary

The purpose of the study is to investigate if treatment with zalutumumab in combination with chemotherapy and radiotherapy (chemo-radiation) will lead to a prolonged life in patients with lung cancer compared to patients treated with chemo-radiation alone.

Detailed description

Originally the study was planned as Part 1A, Part 1B and Part 2. Part 1A was one arm with zalatumumab fixed dose 8 mg/kg. Part 1B was planned as zalutumumab dose-titration and Part 2 adding a comparator. The trial was prematurely closed for enrolment when patients had only been enrolled in Part 1A due to published results showing increased toxicity from induction chemotherapy without any survival benefit.

Outcome results

Primary

Progression Free Survival Verified by Imaging Techniques.

Disease progression was planned to be confirmed using RECIST criteria J Natl Cancer Inst 2000;92:205-16

Time frame: Until disease progression

Population: Data was not collected. Imaging scans were not taken during part 1A. The trial was prematurely closed when 13 patients were enrolled in part 1A. Scans were planned for part 1B and 2. No patients continued to part 1B and part 2.
