Summary

This is a Phase II, multicentre, open-label, randomized, and controlled study, evaluating the efficacy and safety of combined modularized treatment of treosulfan, pioglitazone and clarithromycin in patients with with squamous and non- squamous cell lung cancer, respectively after platin failure.

Detailed description

Patients will be randomized 1:1, and will be stratified according to histology (squamous cell carcinoma vs adenocarcinoma). 86 patients with platin refractory Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) will be treated either with metronomic low-dose treosulfan, pioglitazone and clarithromycin (experimental arm) or with nivolumab (squamous cell lung cancer and nonsquamous cell lung cancer). Patients will undergo tumor assessments at baseline and every 6 weeks (approximately every two cycles) thereafter, until progression. Patients without progression after 36 weeks will undergo tumor assessments every 12 weeks.
