An Exploration of Apatinib Combined With S-1 in Patients With Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT03129256
Lead Sponsor
Changzhou Cancer Hospital of Soochow University
Brief Summary

This study is to explore the potential efficacy and safety of low-dose Apatinib combined with S-1 in patients with advanced lung cancer. Patients with advanced NSCLC will be treated with oral apatinib and S-1 after treatment failure of standard regimen.

Detailed Description

Apatinib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor which selectively inhibits the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2). The anti-angiogenesis effect of apatinib has been proved in preclinical tests. Phase II study has showed an improvement of progression free survival in pretreated patients. S-1, an oral fluoropyrimidine has considerable effectiveness with mild side effect in patients failed to standard treatments. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the potential efficacy and safety of low-dose Apatinib combined with S-1 in heavily pretreated patients with advanced lung cancer. And to explore the biomarkers of antiangiogenesis therapy and the possible mechanisms of treatment resistance on the basis of next generation sequencing.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Progression Free Survival(PFS)2 years

PFS is defined as the length of time from random assignment to disease progression or to death resulting from any cause other than the progress.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Overall Survival(OS)2 years

Overall Survival is defined as the length of time from random assignment to death or to last contact.

Objective response rate(ORR)2 years

Objective response rate is defined as the percentage of subjects having achieved confirmed Complete Response + Partial Response according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors 1.1(RECIST1.1)

Disease Control Rate(DCR)2 years

Disease Control Rate is defined as the percentage of subjects having achieved confirmed Complete Response + Partial Response + Stable Disease according to radiological assessments.
