Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate an improvement in Progression-Free Survival (PFS) for the combination of vandetanib plus gemcitabine compared with gemcitabine plus placebo in chemonaïve (not including an adjuvant regimen) patients aged ≥ 70 years with advanced NSCLC.

BPlacebo to Match ZD6474, VandetanibGemcitabine administered intravenously at 1200 mg/m2 over 30 minutes on Days 1 and 8 of each 21-day cycle up to plus Vandetanib 100 mg Matching Placebo orally once-daily, from Day 1.Patients will receive gemcitabine for up to a maximum of 6 cycles, after which period patients should continue on daily oral dosing with placebo alone until progression. Once a patient has met the study criteria for disease progression on vandetanib/gemcitabine or placebo/gemcitabine, randomised treatment must be permanently discontinued.
