Study summary

The purpose of the study is to investigate if treatment with zalutumumab in combination with chemotherapy and radiotherapy (chemo-radiation) will lead to a prolonged life in patients with lung cancer compared to patients treated with chemo-radiation alone.

Read the detailed description

Originally the study was planned as Part 1A, Part 1B and Part 2. Part 1A was one arm with zalatumumab fixed dose 8 mg/kg. Part 1B was planned as zalutumumab dose-titration and Part 2 adding a comparator. The trial was prematurely closed for enrolment when patients had only been enrolled in Part 1A due to published results showing increased toxicity from induction chemotherapy without any survival benefit.
