SELECT-1 Trial Summary

This trial is testing whether adding selumetinib to docetaxel can help patients with advanced lung cancer live longer compared to those who just receive docetaxel.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that's KRAS mutation positive. They must have had one failed anti-cancer therapy but can't have had MEK inhibitors, docetaxel regimens, other recent cancer treatments, or certain types of radiation.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the effectiveness of Selumetinib combined with Docetaxel against a placebo plus Docetaxel in patients with KRAS mutated NSCLC. It will also evaluate how the body processes the drugs, their safety, and patient-reported outcomes.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions to drug infusion, fatigue, digestive issues like nausea and diarrhea, blood disorders such as low white blood cell counts which may increase infection risk.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

What are the main ailments that Selumetinib has been shown to improve?

"Selumetinib is most often used to mitigate the effects of radiation syndrome, but it has also been effective in treating metastatic bladder cancer, bone marrow transplantation patients, and neoplasm metastasis."

Answered by AI

Are scientists looking for more participants in this research project?

"Unfortunately, this study is no longer recruiting patients for participation. The clinical trial was posted on September 25th, 2013 and updated for the last time on September 20th, 2022. However, there are other ongoing studies that might be of interest; as of right now, there are 1951 trials actively recruiting participants with locally advanced or metastatic non small cell lung cancer stage iiib - iv and 539 studies for Selumetinib looking for patients."

Answered by AI

Are there other examples where Selumetinib has been tested in a controlled setting?

"539 clinical trials are currently underway for Selumetinib. 173 of these ongoing studies are in Phase 3. The majority of the trials taking place for Selumetinib are based in Fuzhou, Fujian; however, 29376 locations worldwide are running similar investigations."

Answered by AI

When was Selumetinib approved by the FDA?

"Selumetinib has received a score of 3 from our Power team. This is because it is a Phase 3 trial, signifying that there are both efficacy and safety data supporting its use."

Answered by AI

If a senior citizen meets the other qualifications, are they able to participate in this research project?

"This study allows anyone who is 18 years or older and 130 years or younger to enroll."
