Clinical Study of Nanocrystalline Megestrol in Malnourished Patients With First-Line Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Официальное название

A Phase III Prospective, Randomized, Parallel-Controlled Clinical Study of Nanocrystalline Megestrol in Malnourished Patients With First-Line Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Обзор

This prospective interventional clinical study evaluates the efficacy of nanocrystalline megestrol combined with standard care in improving appetite and weight compared to standard care alone in first-line treatment of NSCLC.

Подробное описание

For patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC who are not eligible for curative treatment-including those with non-squamous cell carcinoma harboring EGFR wild-type and ALK fusion-negative status-there remains a lack of evidence-based data on the association between improving high-risk malnutrition (NRS2002 score ≥3) and clinical benefit. Additionally, clinical research on nanocrystalline megestrol, a novel megestrol formulation, in the Chinese population is limited. Furthermore, data on its use in the first-line treatment of high-risk NSCLC with standard care are scarce. Integrating nanocrystalline megestrol into antitumor therapy to address malnutrition, enhance appetite, and promote weight gain represents a clinically meaningful and feasible approach. This strategy holds promise for improving quality of life while addressing the critical issue of survival benefit.

a) Hematology (no blood components and cell growth factor support therapy were used within 7 days before the start of the study): i. Absolute neutrophil value ANC ≥ 1.5 × 109/L (1,500/mm3); ii.Platelet count ≥ 100 × 109/L (100,000/mm3); iii.Hymoglobin ≥ 90 g/L. b) Kidney: i. Creatinine clearance\* (CrCl) Calculated value ≥ 50 mL/min

\* The Cockcroft-Gault formula will be used to calculate CrCl (Cockcroft-Gault formula) CrCl (mL/min) = {(140 Age) × Weight (kg) × F/ (SCr (mg/dL) × 72) F=1 for males; F=0.85 for females; SCr = serum creatinine. ii.
