Brief Summary

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

Certain genetic factors can affect a patient's potential sensitivity to therapeutic drugs and other agents. There is a factor called ISG15 which might help doctors better identify patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose tumors may be more sensitive to the drug called Irinotecan. This factor is elevated in roughly 30% of NSCLC cases. Irinotecan is an agent that inhibits the enzyme called topoisomerase I that is involved in cell growth, and it has been FDA approved for 17 years for another type of cancer.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The goal of this trial is to demonstrate the potential clinical benefit of targeted irinotecan chemotherapy in NSCLC patients whose tumors display a specific phenotype that is associated with increased sensitivity to this drug, ISG15H.

Study Groups

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

Irinotecan

The starting dose of irinotecan for the study is 180 mg/m2, given intravenously every 14 days. Each 14 day period will constitute one cycle of treatment.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Irinotecan

Intervention Type DRUG

180 mg/m2 Irinotecan intravenously over 60 minutes on day 1 of each cycle

Pre-medication for irinotecan: palonosetron 0.25 mg and dexamethasone 8 - 16 mg, both administered intravenously. Atropine 0.25 - 0.5 mg subcutaneously or IV is at the discretion of the treating physician
