Three-Arm Randomized Phase II Study of Carboplatin and Paclitaxel in Combination With Cetuximab, IMC-A12 or Both in Patients With Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Who Will Not Receive Bevacizumab-Based Therapy
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating cixutumumab, carboplatin, and 2 other interventions for Recurrent Non-small Cell Lung Cancer and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 140 participants across 249 sites.
Detailed Summary
This randomized phase II trial is studying how well giving carboplatin and paclitaxel together with cetuximab and/or cixutumumab (IMC-A12) works in treating patients with stage IIIB or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin and paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as cetuximab and cixutumumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Giving chemotherapy together with monoclonal antibody therapy may kill more tumor cells. It is not yet known whether carboplatin and paclitaxel are more effective when given with cetuximab and/or cixutumumab in treating non-small cell lung cancer.
