Marimastat in Treating Patients With Stage III Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Clinical Trials Data presented on Clinical Trials Search isn't meant to be a substitute for qualified health advice, calls or treatment using a genuine doctor. We are not docs. Always consult your dr. on Marimastat in Treating Patients With Stage III Non-small Cell Lung Cancer conditions. Clinical Trials Search.org is a site dedicated to listing clinical research studies in human subjects. Marimastat in Treating Patients With Stage III Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Clinical research trials and Marimastat in Treating Patients With Stage III Non-small Cell Lung Cancer healthcare trials occur in a lot of of places throughout the United States. A clinical trial or clinical study is a research project with human volunteer subjects. Clinical drug trials and pharmaceutical clinical trials generally assess the potency of new drugs. The intent of the studies / undertakings is to figure out certain human medical questions. Clinical trials are a popular means for mDs, government agencies, and private sector corporations to locate remedies for all kinds of circumstances, including Marimastat in Treating Patients With Stage III Non-small Cell Lung Cancer. Marimastat in Treating Patients With Stage III Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Clinical Trials and other clinical trials allow volunteers to obtain health treatment alternatives before they are available to the masses. Many times the participants undergo treatment for free, and sometimes they are paid for their time. Occasionally there is a cost for a Marimastat in Treating Patients With Stage III Non-small Cell Lung Cancer clinical trial. Participants typically obtain the most effective healthcare available for their Marimastat in Treating Patients With Stage III Non-small Cell Lung Cancer condition. Dangers are a reality, nonetheless, and can include extra or frequent mD trips, medical hazards (potentially life-endangering), and/or the treatment being uneffective. Trials are federally regulated with rigid guidelines to protect clinical trials patients.

Marimastat in Treating Patients With Stage III Non-small Cell Lung Cancer



Marimastat in Treating Patients With Stage III Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

For Condition: stage 3A non-small cell lung cancer,stage 3B non-small cell lung cancer
Status: Completed
Sponsor(s): ILEX Oncology ,
Synopsis: RATIONALE: Marimastat may stop the growth of non-small cell lung cancer by stopping blood flow to the tumor. PURPOSE: Randomized double-blinded phase III trial to determine the effectiveness of marimastat in treating patients who have residual stage III non-small cell lung cancer.
Details: OBJECTIVES: I. Compare the effect of marimastat (a matrix metalloproteinase inhibitor) vs. placebo on overall survival in patients with Stage III non-small cell lung cancer who have minimal residual disease following chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and/or surgery. II. Assess the effect of marimastat on time to disease progression in these patients. III. Assess the safety and tolerability of marimastat in these patients. PROTOCOL OUTLINE: This is a randomized, double-blind study. Patients are randomized no less than 2 and no more than 8 weeks after the last prior treatment modality received. Patients are stratified by participating institution. Patients are randomly assigned to receive either oral marimastat or oral placebo twice daily. Treatment begins within 5 days of minimization and continues for up to 18 months after the last patient is enrolled, unless disease progression or unacceptable toxicity intervenes. Patients deriving benefit at end of study may continue treatment if desired. Patients are followed every 3 months. PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 504 patients will be entered over 30 months from approximately 60 centers.
