Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Incidence of Central Nervous System (CNS) Hemorrhagic Events
18 months

Number of events of brain or central nervous system (CNS) bleeding

Percentage of Participants With Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) [Overall Response Rate (ORR)]
From study enrollment until disease progression or recurrence up to completion of 3 cycles (21-day cycles) of chemotherapy

Response was defined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST v1.1) criteria. CR was defined as the disappearance of all target and non-target lesions and all target and non-target lymph nodes were non-pathological or normal in size \[\<10 millimeter (mm) short axis\]. PR was defined as having at least a 30% decrease in sum of longest diameter of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. ORR calculated as: (sum of the number of participants with PRs and CRs) divided by (number of evaluable participants) multiplied by 100.

Secondary Endpoints

Progression-free Survival (PFS)
18 months
Overall Survival (OS)
18 months
Percentage of Participants With No Viable Tumor Cells in Resected Lung Tissue [Pathological Complete Remission (pCR)]
At the time of surgery (within 3 to 6 weeks of Day 1 of Cycle 3 [21-day cycles] of chemotherapy)

What phase is Vitamin B12 in for NSCLC?

Vitamin B12 is in Phase 2 clinical development for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC). It is an investigational drug in this context, meaning it has not yet been approved by regulatory authorities. The Phase 2 trials have been completed.

What clinical trials is Vitamin B12 in?

Vitamin B12 has been studied in two completed Phase 2 clinical trials. NCT00227019 evaluated bevacizumab in combination with pemetrexed in 16 patients with NSCLC. NCT01165021 studied pemetrexed/cisplatin as pre-operative treatment in 19 patients with early stage nonsquamous NSCLC.

Is Vitamin B12 the same as cyanocobalamin?

Vitamin B12 is a general term for a group of compounds, and cyanocobalamin is one synthetic form. In the context of these clinical trials, the drug is referred to as Vitamin B12, and no alternative names have been specified in the trial data.
