A Study of Apomab in Patients With Previously Untreated, Advanced-Stage Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
This study is ongoing, but not recruiting participants.
Sponsored by: Genentech
Information provided by: Genentech
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00480831
  Purpose

This is a randomized, double-blind, Phase II, placebo-controlled trial adding on to a background of effective treatment designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of Apomab combined with paclitaxel + carboplatin + bevacizumab therapy in patients with previously untreated Stage IIIB, Stage IV, or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Approximately 120 patients will be randomized to one of two treatment arms.
