Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Lung Cancer
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT00010218
Lead Sponsor
Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology
Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.

PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of karenitecin in treating patients who have relapsed or refractory non-small cell lung cancer

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

* Determine the response rate and duration of response in patients with relapsed or refractory non-small cell lung cancer treated with karenitecin as salvage chemotherapy.

* Determine the effect of prior response to chemotherapy on response to this drug in these patients.

* Determine survival and failure-free survival of patients treated with this drug.

* Determine the toxicity profile of this drug in these patients.

OUTLINE: Patients are stratified according to response to prior chemotherapy (relapsed vs refractory).

Patients receive karenitecin IV over 60 minutes on days 1-5. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients with responding disease after 6 courses may receive 2 additional courses beyond best response.

Patients are followed every 3 months for 1 year and then every 6 months thereafter.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A minimum of 45 patients (25 for stratum I and 20 for stratum II) will be accrued for this study within 12 months.
