Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Progression-Free Survival (PFS) Time

    PFS time was the elapsed time from the date of randomization to the first date of objective progression of disease or death from any cause. PFS was censored at the date of the participant's last tumor assessment for participants who were not known to have died or to have PD as of the data-inclusion cut-off date for analysis. PD, defined using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.0 (RECIST v1.0), was at least a 20% increase in the sum of longest diameter (LD) of target lesions taking as references the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of 1 or more new lesions.

    Randomization to measured PD or death from any cause (up to 41 months)

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Overall Survival (OS) Time

    Randomization to date of death from any cause (up to 41 months)

  • Time to Objective Progressive Disease (TPD)

    Randomization to measured PD (up to 41 months)

  • Time to Worsening of Symptoms (TWS)

    Randomization to worsening of each LCSS item (up to 39 months)

  • Percentage of Participants With a Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) (Objective Tumor Response Rate)

    Baseline to measured PD (up to 41 months)

  • Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs)

    Baseline to study completion (up to 41 Months)

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Histologic or cytologic diagnosis of NSCLC Stage IIIB (with pleural effusion and/or positive supraclavicular lymph nodes) or Stage IV prior to induction therapy.
  • Participants must have had 1 of the following induction therapies for treatment for Stage IIIB (with pleural effusion and/or positive supraclavicular lymph nodes) or IV NSCLC: Gemcitabine plus carboplatin, paclitaxel plus carboplatin, or docetaxel plus carboplatin, gemcitabine plus cisplatin, paclitaxel plus cisplatin or docetaxel plus cisplatin.
  • Participants must have received only 1 chemotherapeutic doublet lasting precisely 4 cycles.
  • Induction regimens must be based on 21-day cycles.
  • Documented evidence of a tumor response of complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD). Tumor assessment must occur between Cycle 4 (Day 1) of induction therapy and the date of randomization. This response does not have to be confirmed in order for the participant to be randomized. Positron emission tomography (PET) scans and ultrasounds may not be used for lesion measurements for response determination.

You may not qualify if:

  • Have received treatment within the last 30 days with a drug that has not received regulatory approval for any indication at the time of study entry.
  • Inability to comply with protocol or study procedures.
  • A serious concomitant systemic disorder that would compromise the participant's ability to complete the study.
  • A serious cardiac condition, such as myocardial infarction within 6 months, angina, or heart disease, as defined by the New York Heart Association Class III or IV.
