Lung cancer combo trial halted early – too few patients to draw conclusions

NCT ID NCT02257619

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This phase 2 study tested whether adding itacitinib to standard chemotherapy (docetaxel) could help people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer live longer. The trial was stopped early after enrolling only 9 participants, so we cannot tell if the combination is safe or effective. The main goal was to find the right dose and check for serious side effects.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
itacitinib and docetaxel
What this could lead to
If it worked, this combination might have offered a new treatment option for advanced lung cancer patients who had already tried one prior chemotherapy.
What could go wrong
The trial was terminated early with only 9 participants, so we have very little data. It is unclear if itacitinib adds any benefit or causes more side effects than docetaxel alone.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of NSCLC that is Stage IIIb, IV, or recurrent. 2. Received only 1 prior systemic chemotherapy regimen for Stage IIIb, IV, or recurrent disease not including neoadjuvant and/or adjuvant therapy. (NOTE: Exceptions may be allowed based on prior treatment regimens and tumor types in agreement with protocol requirements.) 3. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0 to 2. 4. Life expectancy of ≥12 weeks. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Received prior treatment with docetaxel. 2. Known active central nervous system (CNS) metastases. Subjects with CNS metastases who have completed a course of therapy would be eligible for the study provided they are clinically stable for at least 1 month prior to study entry, defined as: 1. No evidence of new or enlarging CNS metastasis or new neurological symptoms attributable to CNS metastases. 2. Subjects who are receiving concomitant corticosteroids must be on a stable or decreasing dose for at least 4 weeks prior to first dose of study treatment and off all anticonvulsants for at least 4 weeks prior to study entry. 3. Peripheral neuropathy ≥ Grade 3. 4. Current or previous other malignancy within 2 years of study entry, except cured basal or squamous cell skin cancer, superficial bladder cancer, prostate intraepithelial neoplasm, carcinoma in situ of the cervix, or other noninvasive malignancy. 5. Significant, concurrent, uncontrolled medical condition including but not limited to, renal, hepatic, hematological, gastrointestinal, endocrine, pulmonary, cardiac, neurological, cerebral, or psychiatric disease. 6.
