CONCORDE: A phase I platform study of novel agents in combination with conventional radiotherapy in non-small-cell lung cancer

Abstract

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer mortality worldwide and most patients are unsuitable for ‘gold standard’ treatment, which is concurrent chemoradiotherapy. CONCORDE is a platform study seeking to establish the toxicity profiles of multiple novel radiosensitisers targeting DNA repair proteins in patients treated with sequential chemoradiotherapy. Time-to-event continual reassessment will facilitate efficient dose-finding.
