NCT00084487

Brief Summary

Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as rebeccamycin analog, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. This phase II trial is studying how well rebeccamycin analog works as second-line therapy in treating patients with limited-stage or extensive-stage small cell lung cancer that has relapsed after previous first-line chemotherapy.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Objective Response Rate Estimated as the Proportion of Responders

    Response and progression will be evaluated in this study using the new international criteria proposed by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Committee. Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum LD; Progressive Disease (PD):At least a 20% increase in the sum of the LD of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions; Stable Disease (SD):Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as reference the smallest sum LD since the treatment started. An exact binomial 95% confidence interval will be calculated for this proportion.

    Up to 4 years

  • Progression Free Survival

    Median time of patients without Progressive Disease (PD):At least a 20% increase in the sum of the LD of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions. Duration of remission will be analyzed using Kaplan-Meier curves.

    Up to 4 years

  • Overall Survival

    Median time of patient survival. Duration of survival will be analyzed using Kaplan-Meier curves.

    Up to 4 years

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Progression Free Survival

    6 months

  • Overall Survival

    1 year
