Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

30-40% of patients with lung cancer will develop bone metastases during the course of their disease, which can lead to pain, decreased mobility and skeletal complications. This study will investigate the effect of zoledronic acid on preventing or delaying the development of bone metastases and the impact on disease progression/survival in patients with stage IIIA and IIIB Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Zoledronic acid

Zoledronic acid 4 mg intravenous infusion over at least 15 minutes every 3 to 4 weeks for 24 months. Dosage was adjusted for participants with mild or moderate renal impairment.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Zoledronic acid 4 mg

Intervention Type DRUG

Zoledronic acid 4 mg in 5 mL concentrated solution prepared with 100 mL calcium free infusion solution (0.9 % sodium chloride or 5% glucose solution).

Control

No investigational treatment. If a participant developed bone metastases, treatment was started with Zoledronic acid 4 mg intravenous infusion over at least 15 minutes every 3 to 4 weeks until 24 months from the date of study entry had elapsed.

Group Type OTHER

Zoledronic acid 4 mg

Intervention Type DRUG

Zoledronic acid 4 mg in 5 mL concentrated solution prepared with 100 mL calcium free infusion solution (0.9 % sodium chloride or 5% glucose solution).
