Bavituximab Plus Carbo and Pemetrexed in Chemo-Naive Stage IV Non-Squamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) Subjects

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Non Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT01323062
Lead Sponsor
UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center
Brief Summary

This is a non-randomized, open-label Phase 1b trial to establish the safety and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of bavituximab in combination with pemetrexed and carboplatin in subjects with previously untreated stage IV non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Detailed Description

Subjects with measurable disease will be assessed for response after every 2 cycles of therapy using RECIST 1.1 criteria. In addition, progression free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and exploratory biomarkers, imaging, and thrombotic risk parameters will be evaluated.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Measure number of severe side effects seen during first cycle of therapyThree weeks

To determine the maximum tolerated dose based on occurrence of dose-limititing toxicity (DLT) within the first 3 weeks of treatment to determine appropriate and safe dose of bavituximab in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Progression free survivalAt the time from the start of treatment until documented disease as defined bia RECIST 1.1 or death

to determine the overall response rate and estimate progression free survival associated with bavituximab in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed
