Study summary

This is a non-randomized, open-label Phase 1b trial to establish the safety and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of bavituximab in combination with pemetrexed and carboplatin in subjects with previously untreated stage IV non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Read the detailed description

Subjects with measurable disease will be assessed for response after every 2 cycles of therapy using RECIST 1.1 criteria. In addition, progression free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and exploratory biomarkers, imaging, and thrombotic risk parameters will be evaluated.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Measure number of severe side effects seen during first cycle of therapy

    To determine the maximum tolerated dose based on occurrence of dose-limititing toxicity (DLT) within the first 3 weeks of treatment to determine appropriate and safe dose of bavituximab in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed

    Time frame: Three weeks

Secondary outcomes

  1. Progression free survival

    to determine the overall response rate and estimate progression free survival associated with bavituximab in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed

    Time frame: At the time from the start of treatment until documented disease as defined bia RECIST 1.1 or death
