Collaborator: National Cancer Institute (NCI)

ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00005849
  Purpose

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of bryostatin 1 plus paclitaxel in treating patients who have stage IIIB, stage IV, or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer.


Condition Intervention Phase
Lung Cancer
Drug: bryostatin 1
Drug: paclitaxel
Phase II

Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Treatment
Official Title: Phase II Study of Bryostatin-1 in Combination With Paclitaxel for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Further study details as provided by National Cancer Institute (NCI):

Study Start Date: April 2000
Detailed Description:

OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the overall, partial, and complete response rates in patients with stage IIIB-IV or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer treated with bryostatin 1 and paclitaxel. II. Determine the overall survival and time to tumor progression in patients treated with this regimen. III. Determine the T cell subset analysis and serum levels of interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor alpha in these patients after receiving bryostatin 1 and correlate with clinical endpoints.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients receive paclitaxel IV over 1 hour on days 1, 8, and 15 and bryostatin 1 IV over 1 hour on days 2, 9, and 16. Treatment repeats every 4 weeks for a minimum of 2 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients are followed for at least 2 years for survival.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 15-40 patients will be accrued for this study within 1 year.
