Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Study of Nivolumab +/- Nab-paclitaxel in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NCT NCT02967133)

NCT ID: NCT02967133

Last Updated: 2022-09-08

Results Overview

This study will compare the progression-free survival of patients with advanced stage non-small cell lung cancer whose cancer has progressed after standard first-line platinum based doublet chemotherapy is improved with nivolumab plus nab-paclitaxel compared to nivolumab alone. A progression is defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. (Note: the appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered progressions). Appearance of one or more new lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions. Unequivocal progression should not normally trump target lesion status. It must be representative of overall disease status change, not a single lesion increase.
