A Randomized, Multicenter, Open-Label Phase 3 Study of Pemetrexed-Cisplatin Chemotherapy Plus Necitumumab (IMC-11F8) Versus Pemetrexed-Cisplatin Chemotherapy Alone in the First-Line Treatment of Patients With Stage IV Nonsquamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating Pemetrexed, Cisplatin, and 1 other intervention for Non Small Cell Lung Cancer. Completed, enrolled 633 participants across 101 sites in 20 countries.
Detailed Summary
The research study is testing the investigational drug necitumumab in the treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer.
