Study summary

This clinical trial involves the administration of the chemotherapeutic medication vinflunine. Vinflunine is not approved by the FDA and is experimental in the treatment of extensive small cell lung cancer. The purpose of this research trial is to study the effectiveness of vinflunine in patients with relapsed extensive small cell lung cancer, evaluate the toxicity, and evaluate how long the response to this drug lasts.

Read the detailed description

Eligible patients will receive vinflunine as a 15-20 minute intravenous (IV)infusion once every three weeks (21 days). This three week treatment period is called a cycle. Patients whose cancer has not grown or if it has decreased in size may receive up to 6 cycles of vinflunine. Evaluation will be conducted every other cycle.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Overall Response Rate (ORR), the Percentage of Patients Who Experience an Objective Benefit From Treatment

    Overall response rate is the percentage of patients with complete response or partial response per RECIST v.1 Criteria. Complete response (CR) = Disappearance of all target lesions, disappearance of all nontarget lesions for at least 4 weeks. Partial Response (PR) = At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of longest diameters. The final response criteria assigned represented the best response obtained during treatment.

    Time frame: 18 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. Duration of Response, the Length of Time, in Months, That Protocol Treatment Produced an Objective Improvement in Patients' Disease

    The Response Duration was calculated from time of initial measured response to date of first observation of progressive disease.

    Time frame: 18 months

  2. Overall Survival (OS), the Length of Time, in Months, That Patients Were Alive From Their First Date of Protocol Treatment Until Death

    Overall survival was measured from the date of study entry until the date of death.

    Time frame: 18 months

  3. Progression Free Survival (PFS), the Length of Time, in Months, That Patients Were Alive From Their First Date of Protocol Treatment Until Worsening of Their Disease

    Progression free survival was defined as the interval between the start date of treatment and the date of occurrence of progressive disease or death.

    Time frame: 18 months

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
Not marked actual or estimatedDates not marked actual or estimated

The record gives a start of Jan 2006, a primary completion of May 2009 and a completion of Nov 2009. It does not say whether these dates are actual or estimated.

Results were first posted in Mar 2013, 3 years 10 months after primary completion.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Mar 13, 2013, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
