Summary

The primary purpose of the study is to investigate if daily treatment with celecoxib, an inhibitor of cyclooxygenase-2, can prolong survival in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer who receive anticancer chemotherapy as their primary treatment. Secondary endpoints of the study are: health-related quality of life, toxicity, cardiovascular events, progression-free survival, and biological markers (VEGF, proteomics).

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Celecoxib

Celecoxib 400 mg twice daily, orally, starting on the same day as palliative chemotherapy. Maximum duration of treatment is one year. Treatment should be terminated earlier in case of disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or if the patient wants to stop treatment.

Placebo

One capsule twice daily, starting on the same day as palliative chemotherapy. Maximum duration of treatment is one year. Treatment should be terminated earlier in case of disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or if the patient wants to stop treatment.
