A Phase III, Multi-center, Placebo-Controlled Trial of Sorafenib (BAY43-9006) in Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Advanced Predominantly Non Squamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) After 2 or 3 Previous Treatment Regimens for Advanced Disease
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating Sorafenib (Nexavar, BAY43-9006) and Placebo for Carcinoma and Non-Small-Cell Lung. Completed, enrolled 703 participants across 182 sites in 34 countries.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of the study is to see if sorafenib plus best supportive care (i.e. in addition to the non-cancer treatments patients would normally receive) is an effective treatment for lung cancer compared to best supportive care alone. The safety and tolerability of the two treatment groups will also be compared. The goal of the study is to test the ability of sorafenib to improve survival compared to best supportive care alone.
