OCT Clinical has successfully initiated patient recruitment for the clinical trial in a Ph3 lung cancer study in Eastern Europe. This is a randomized open-label trial, the aim of which is to determine the efficacy and safety of a test drug in combination with chemotherapy and platinum as first-line therapy in patients with metastatic non-squamous cell non-small cell lung cancer. The Sponsor of the study is a US-based immuno-oncology biotech company.
The recruitment target for the entire global study is 560 patients in four Eastern European countries. The site initiation in Ukraine, Georgia, and Belarus is planned for January 2022. Participants will be treated until the disease progresses or intolerance to therapy develops. The duration of the project is almost 4 years, until the end of 2024.
Within this project, the OCT Clinical team is responsible for a wide scope of clinical trial services: study feasibility analysis and site selection, clinical trial approval and regulatory support, logistics, medical monitoring, project management, and site management and monitoring.
