Study summary

This study will summarize the safety of patients receiving figitumumab combined with etoposide and cisplatin (or carboplatin) vs. patients receiving etoposide and cisplatin (or carboplatin) alone as first line treatment for extensive stage disease Small Cell Lung Cancer.

Read the detailed description

The study prematurely discontinued on January 26, 2011 due to slow enrollment. It should be noted that safety concerns have not been seen in this study and have not factored into this decision.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Progression-Free Survival (PFS)

    Median time from the first dose of study treatment to the first documentation of objective tumor progression or to death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. PFS time (days) = \[event (progression or death) date or censor date - date of randomization + 1\].

    Time frame: Baseline, every 2nd cycle (between Day 15-21, 1 cycle = 21 days) starting with Cycle 2 until disease progression, at the end of treatment visit (if more than 28 days have passed since last evaluation); and every 6 weeks until disease progression

Secondary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants With Objective Response

    Number of participants with objective response based on assessment of confirmed complete response (CR) or confirmed partial response (PR) according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST). Confirmed CR defined as disappearance of all target lesions. Confirmed PR defined as ≥30% decrease in sum of the longest dimensions (LD) of the target lesions taking as a reference the baseline sum LD according to RECIST.

    Time frame: Baseline, every 2nd cycle (between Day 15-21, 1 cycle = 21 days) starting with Cycle 2 until disease progression, at the end of treatment visit (if more than 28 days have passed since last evaluation); and every 6 weeks until disease progression

  2. Overall Survival (OS)

    Overall survival was the duration from enrollment to death due to any cause. For participants who are alive, overall survival was censored at the last contact. Survival time (days) = \[death date (last known alive date) - date of randomization +1\].

    Time frame: Every 3 months until death or 12 months from the date the last participant was randomized

  3. Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    AEs are any untoward, undesired, or unplanned event in the form of signs, symptoms, disease, or laboratory or physiologic observations occurring in a person given study treatment. The event does not need to be causally related to the study treatment. SAEs include medical occurrences that result in death, are life threatening, require hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization, result in disability/incapacity or are a congenital anomaly or birth defect in the offspring of a study subject.

    Time frame: Baseline up to follow-up (90 days post dose)

  4. Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Figitumumab

    Time frame: Cycle 1, Day 2; Day 1 of Cycles 2, 4, 5, 6, 10 and 15; Day 28 and Day 90 post last figitumumab dose

  5. Minimum Observed Plasma Trough Concentration (Cmin) of Figitumumab

    Time frame: Cycle 1, Day 2; Day 1 of Cycles 2, 4, 5, 6, 10 and 15; Day 28 and Day 90 post last figitumumab dose

  6. Area Under the Curve From Time Zero to Last Quantifiable Concentration (AUClast) of Etoposide

    Area under the plasma concentration time-curve from zero to the last measured concentration (AUClast)

    Time frame: Cycles 1 and 2, Day 1 and Day 2 (within 3 hours prior to Day 1 etoposide infusion; 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 6, and 24 hours post Day 1 etoposide infusion); Cycles 4 and 5, Day 2: 24 hours post Day 1 etoposide infusion

  7. Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Etoposide

    Time frame: Cycles 1 and 2, Day 1 and Day 2 (within 3 hours prior to Day 1 etoposide infusion; 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 6, and 24 hours post Day 1 etoposide infusion); Cycles 4 and 5, Day 2: 24 hours post Day 1 etoposide infusion

  8. Percentage of Participants Reporting Positive Anti-Drug Antibodies (ADA) Response for Figitumumab

    Percentage of participants with positive total or neutralizing anti-drug antibody (ADA) for figitumumab

    Time frame: Day 2 of Cycle 1 (or Day 1 of the initial cycle starting single agent figitumumab); Day 1 of Cycles 2 and 4; Day 28 and Day 90 post last figitumumab dose

  9. Cancer Dyspnea Scale (CDS) Score

    The Cancer Dyspnea Scale consists of 12 questions that assess 3 domains of dyspnea (sense of effort, anxiety and discomfort) related to lung cancer. The questions are answered on 5-point Likert scale ranging from 1 to 5 (1 "Not at All" to 5 "Very Much").

    Time frame: Day 1 of every cycle (up to 17 cycles), at the end of treatment visit (28 days post last dose); then every 6 weeks until disease progression

  10. Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) Score

    The Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) is a 1-item self-reported questionnaire designed to assess "worst pain" severity. Overall scores range from 0 to 10, with low scores representing a lower level of pain.

    Time frame: Day 1 of every cycle (up to 17 cycles), at the end of treatment visit (28 days post last dose); then every 6 weeks until disease progression

  11. Pre-treatment Levels of Tumor Biomarkers Involved in Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-I) Signaling Pathway

    Time frame: Baseline prior to dosing

  12. Levels of Serum Circulating Insulin-like Growth Factor (IGF) Pathway Related Markers

    Time frame: Baseline (Cycle 1, Day 1 prior to dosing), Cycle 4 (Day 1), at the end of treatment visit (28 days post last figitumumab dose)

  13. Number of Total Circulating Tumor-Related Cells (CTCs) and Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1 Receptor (IGF-IR)-Expressing CTCs

    Pre-treatment and post-treatment counts of total and IGF-IR-positive CTCs

    Time frame: Baseline (Cycle 1, Day 1), Cycle 4 (Day 1) and at the end of treatment visit (28 days post last figitumumab dose)

Results

Posted Feb 25, 2013
Limitations and caveats
The study was terminated prematurely due to low participants enrollment and the halting of the figitumumab development program. The only endpoint analyzed was safety and tolerability of figitumumab ± cisplatin (or carboplatin) and etoposide.
