NCT00789373

Brief Summary

This study will compare progression-free survival in patients with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer. Patients who do not progress following 4 cycles of induction treatment with pemetrexed and cisplatin will be randomized 2:1 to receive either maintenance pemetrexed or placebo.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Investigator-assessed Objective Progression-free Survival (PFS)

    Investigator-assessed objective PFS was measured from the date of randomization to the first date of objectively determined progressive disease (PD) or death from any cause. For patients not known to have died as of the data cutoff date and who did not have objective PD, PFS was censored at the date of last objective tumor assessment. PD was determined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria. PD = 20% increase in sum of longest diameter of target lesions.

    Date of randomization to the date of measured PD or date of death from any cause (up to 19.3 months)

Secondary Outcomes (9)

  • Independently-assessed Objective Progression-free Survival (PFS)

    Date of randomization to first date of measured PD or date of death from any cause (up to 19.3 months)

  • Overall Survival (OS)

    Date of randomization to the date of death from any cause up to 39.5 months

  • Change From Baseline in the EuroQol Instrument (EQ-5D) Index Score

    Baseline randomization through 30-day post-discontinuation visit (up to 19.3 months)

  • Change From Baseline in EuroQol Instrument (EQ-5D) Visual Analog Scale (VAS)

    Baseline randomization through 30-day post-discontinuation visit (up to 19.3 months)

  • Percentage of Participants With Hospitalizations Due to Adverse Events or Requiring Transfusion (Resource Utilization)

    Baseline randomization through 30-day post-discontinuation visit (up to 19.3 months)

  • +4 more secondary outcomes

Induction therapy: Cisplatin: 75 mg/m\^2, IV, on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle for 4 cycles

Maintenance therapy: Normal saline (0.9% sodium chloride) administered IV on Day 1 every 21-day cycle until progressive disease or treatment discontinuation

pemetrexed + cisplatin followed by placebo

Best Supportive Care is treatment given with the intent to maximize quality of life. Best Supportive Care excludes any treatment in which the goal is to cure or slow the progression of the study disease. Patients will receive Best Supportive Care as judged by their treating physician. Those therapies considered acceptable include, but are not limited to, palliative radiation to extrathoracic structures, antibiotics, analgesics, antiemetics, thoracentesis, pleurodesis, blood transfusions, and/or nutritional support (enteral or parenteral).

  • You must sign an informed consent document for clinical research.
  • You must have Stage IIIB or IV nonsquamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.
  • You must at least be able to be physically mobile, take care of yourself, and must be up and about and able to perform light activities such as light housework or office work.
  • You are allowed to have had prior radiation therapy as long as it was not to more than 25% of the bone marrow and did not include the whole pelvis. Thoracic radiation must be completed more than 30 days before the study. You must be recovered from the toxic effects (except hair loss).
  • You must have at least 1 measurable tumor lesion according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) guidelines or disease that can be evaluated by computed tomography (CT) Scan.
  • Your test results assessing the function of your blood forming tissue, kidneys, and liver must be satisfactory.
  • You must be 18 years of age or older.
  • Women must be sterile, postmenopausal or on contraception and men must be on contraception or sterile (e.g. post-vasectomy).

You may not qualify if:

  • You cannot have squamous cell and/or mixed small cell, non-small cell lung cancer
  • You cannot have received other investigational drugs within the last 30 days of entering the trial.
  • You cannot have previously completed or withdrawn from this study or any other study investigating pemetrexed.
  • You cannot have other serious on-going illnesses including active infections.
  • You cannot have a serious cardiac condition, such as a heart attack, angina, or heart disease within 6 months of entering the trial.
  • You cannot have had another form of cancer other than superficial basal cell and superficial squamous (skin) cell cancer, or carcinoma in situ of the cervix within the last 5 years. Patients with a history of low-grade (Gleason score less than or equal to 6) localized prostate cancer will be eligible even if diagnosed less than 5 years ago.
  • You cannot have known central nervous system (CNS) metastases, other than treated, stable brain metastasis.
  • You cannot be receiving nor have received any prior systemic anticancer therapy for lung cancer (including chemotherapy given after surgery in early-stage treatment).
  • You cannot have clinically significant third-space fluid collections (e.g. ascites or pleural effusions that cannot be controlled by drainage or other procedures).
  • You cannot have received a recent (within 30 days) or are receiving a yellow fever vaccination.
  • You are unable to stop taking more than 1.3 grams of aspirin on a daily basis or other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
  • You are unable or unwilling to take folic acid, injections of vitamin B12, or corticosteroids.
  • You cannot be pregnant or breastfeeding.
  • You must at least be able to be physically mobile, take care of yourself, and must be up and about and able to perform light activities such as light housework or office work.
  • You must have documented radiographic evidence of a tumor response of complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD) according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) guidelines. 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 patient to be randomized to the maintenance phase.
