Brief

The purpose of this study is to determine if adding ASA404 to docetaxel chemotherapy makes the cancer treatment more effective in patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer

Condition(s):

Intervention(s):

  • Drug: ASA404
  • Drug: docetaxel

Phase:

Phase 3

Eligibility

Ages Eligible for Study:

18 years to Any Age

Genders Eligible for Study:

Male and Female

Health of Volunteers:

People with the conditions listed in this trial can participate as controls.

Key Inclusion Criteria:

1. Histologically confirmed non-small cell carcinoma of the lung of all histologies. (Histological or cytological specimens must be collected via surgical biopsy, brushing, washing or core needle aspiration of a defined lesion. Sputum cytology is not acceptable.)

2. Patients who have progressed while on or following a first-line chemotherapy regimen for Stage IIIb disease (malignant pleural effusion or pericardial effusion that have been confirmed cytologically) or Stage IV disease. Patients who have received bevacizumab and/or EGFR inhibitors in first-line will be eligible
3. Age >= 18 years old

4. WHO Performance Status of 0-2

5. Measurable or non-measurable disease per RECIST criteria (PTS-1)


Key Exclusion Criteria:

1. Patients having CNS metastases (Patients having any clinical signs of CNS metastases must have a CT or MRI of the brain performed to rule out CNS metastases in order to be eligible for study participation. Patients who have had brain metastases surgically removed or irradiated with no residual disease confirmed by imaging are allowed).

2. Patients with a history of another primary malignancy <= 5 years, with the exception of non-melanoma skin cancer or cervical cancer in situ.

3. Radiotherapy <= 2 weeks prior to randomization. Patients must have recovered from all radiotherapy-related toxicities.

4. Major surgery <= 4 weeks prior to randomization (major surgery is defined by the use of general anesthesia). Minor surgery <= 2 weeks prior to randomization. Insertion of a vascular access device is allowed. Patients must have recovered from all surgery-related complications.

5. Treatment with first-line chemotherapy regimen <= 3 weeks prior to randomization (<= 6 weeks for mitomycin and nitrosoureas)
