Molecular Profiling and Safety Study of Operable Lung Cancer Patients Treated With Alimta Combined With Cisplatin as Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating pemetrexed, cisplatin, and 1 other intervention for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer and Carcinoma. Completed, enrolled 30 participants across 3 sites.
Detailed Summary
The main purpose of this study of pemetrexed combined with cisplatin used as neoadjuvant chemotherapy (2 or 3 cycles) in participants with operable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is to look at various genes present in participants' blood and tumor tissue to see if there is any link between the levels or changes in the genes and how participants with lung cancer respond to pemetrexed and cisplatin treatment.
