Summary
Study start date: June 1, 2012
Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.The overall purpose of the study is to determine whether or not the inclusion of suramin to standard treatment with docetaxel improves progression-free survival for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer in the second and third line settings. Secondary objectives include: To compare response rate of patients in both treatment arms To compare overall survival of patients in both treatment arms To compare toxicity in both treatment arms To determine whether the survival benefit from suramin is associated with reduced M-phase entry in peripheral blood lymphocytes
