What's being measured
Primary outcomes are the specific endpoints the trial is designed to prove or disprove.
-
Progression-free Survival in Months
Time frame: Up to 1 year
Compare progression-free survival (PFS) in participants with advanced NSCLC treated with docetaxel with or without suramin after failure of first-line chemotherapy. PFS is defined as the duration of time from the time of randomization to time of disease progression or death, whichever occurs first.
Sponsor's own description
The overall purpose of the study is to determine whether or not the inclusion of suramin to standard treatment with docetaxel improves progression-free survival for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer in the second and third line settings.
