The effect of Caphosol on the development of esophagitis in (N)SCLC patients treated with concurrent chemo/radiotherapy

Trial hypothesisAdding the use of Caphosol® (rinsing and swallowing four times a day) to the standard of care for esophagitis/mucositis, reduces the incidence, onset, duration and severity of esophagitis in (N)SCLC patients, comparing to the…

Phase IIIB randomized trial of BIBW 2992 plus weekly paclitaxel versus Investigator's choise of chemotherapy following BIBW 2992 monotherapy in non-small cell lung cancer patients failing previous erlotinib or gefitinib treatment

The primairy objective of the trial is to determine the efficacy of BIBW 2992 plus weekly paclitaxel compared to the investigators choise of chemotherapy alone in patients with NSCLC stage IIIb or IV progressing after experiencing a benefit from…

A randomized phase III study of adjuvant chemotherapy with or without low-molecular weight heparin in completely resected non-small-cell lung cancer patients with high-risk for recurrence: NVALT- 8B.

The primary aim of the study is to investigate whether adding Nadroparin to adjuvant chemotherapy in patients in the poor prognostic group (i.e. high SUV) prolongs recurrence-free survival.

Prophylactic Cranial Irradiation (PCI) versus observation in radically treated patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer: A phase III randomized study (NVALT-11/ DLCRG-02).

This randomized phase III study is designed to investigate whether PCI could reduce the incidence of brain metastases or delay their appearance in patients with stage III NSCLC who are treated with curative intention.

Randomized Phase 3 Trial of Gemcitabine/Carboplatin With or Without Iniparib (SAR240550) (a PARP1 Inhibitor) in Subjects with Previously Untreated Stage IV Squamous Non Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)

The purpose of this study is to find out if the combination of gemcitabine plus carboplatin and iniparib works better than gemcitabine and carboplatin alone in subjects with stage IV squamous non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that have not…
