Phase 4
Completed
Conditions
Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT00949910
Lead Sponsor

Brief Summary

This study will provide treatment with erlotinib to participants with advanced NSCLC who have received at least one course of standard chemotherapy or radiation therapy, or who are not medically suitable for either. Efficacy and safety will be monitored throughout the study.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Participants With Objective Response According to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST)Up to approximately 4.5 years; assessed at Baseline, according to institutional standards during treatment (up to 3.5 years), and every 6 months thereafter

Objective response was defined as a best overall response of either complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as assessed by RECIST during the study. CR was defined as disappearance of all clinical and radiographic evidence of target and non-target lesions, normal tumor markers, and absence of tumor-related symptoms. PR was defined as greater than or equal to (≥) 30 percent (%) decrease in sum of longest diameter (LD) of target lesions in reference to Baseline sum LD. Response was to be confirmed ≥28 days after the initial assessment of CR or PR. The percentage of participants (in nearest integer) with objective response was reported.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Participants With Disease Control According to RECISTUp to approximately 4.5 years; assessed at Baseline, according to institutional standards during treatment (up to 3.5 years), and every 6 months thereafter

Disease control was defined as a best overall response of either CR, PR, or stable disease (SD) as assessed by RECIST during the study. CR was defined as disappearance of all clinical and radiographic evidence of target and non-target lesions, normal tumor markers, and absence of tumor-related symptoms. PR was defined as ≥30% decrease in sum LD of target lesions in reference to Baseline sum LD. Response was to be confirmed ≥28 days after the initial assessment of CR or PR. SD was defined as neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR but less than (\<) 20% increase in sum LD. The percentage of participants (in nearest integer) with disease control was reported.

Percentage of Participants by Best Overall Response According to RECISTUp to approximately 4.5 years; assessed at Baseline, according to institutional standards during treatment (up to 3.5 years), and every 6 months thereafter

Tumor response was assessed by RECIST during the study. CR was defined as disappearance of all clinical and radiographic evidence of target and non-target lesions, normal tumor markers, and absence of tumor-related symptoms. PR was defined as ≥30% decrease in sum LD of target lesions in reference to Baseline sum LD. Response was to be confirmed ≥28 days after the initial assessment of CR or PR. SD was defined as neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR but \<20% increase in sum LD. Disease progression or progressive disease (PD) was defined as ≥20% increase in sum LD in reference to the smallest on-treatment sum LD, or the appearance of new lesions. The percentage of participants (in nearest integer unless the percentage is \<1) with each type of best overall response was reported.

Progression-Free Survival (PFS) According to RECISTUp to approximately 4.5 years; assessed at Baseline, according to institutional standards during treatment (up to 3.5 years), and every 6 months thereafter

Tumor response was assessed by RECIST during the study. Disease progression or PD was defined as ≥20% increase in sum LD in reference to the smallest on-treatment sum LD, or the appearance of new lesions. PFS was defined as the time from start of treatment to the first event of death or PD. The median duration of PFS and corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI) were estimated by Kaplan-Meier analysis and expressed in months.

Percentage of Participants Who DiedUp to approximately 4.5 years; assessed continuously during treatment (up to 3.5 years) and every 6 months thereafter

The percentage of participants (in nearest integer) who died from any cause was reported.

Percentage of Participants With Death or Disease Progression According to RECISTUp to approximately 4.5 years; assessed at Baseline, according to institutional standards during treatment (up to 3.5 years), and every 6 months thereafter

Tumor response was assessed by RECIST during the study. Disease progression or PD was defined as ≥20% increase in sum LD in reference to the smallest on-treatment sum LD, or the appearance of new lesions. The percentage of participants (in nearest integer) who died or experienced PD was reported.

Overall Survival (OS)Up to approximately 4.5 years; assessed continuously during treatment (up to 3.5 years) and every 6 months thereafter

OS was defined as the time from start of treatment to date of death for any reason. The median duration of OS and corresponding 95% CI were estimated by Kaplan-Meier analysis and expressed in months.
