简要总结

RATIONALE: Gefitinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. It is not yet known whether gefitinib is more effective than a placebo in treating esophageal cancer.

PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying gefitinib to see how well it works compared with a placebo in treating patients with esophageal cancer that is progressing after chemotherapy.

详细描述

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • To assess whether gefitinib vs placebo will improve overall survival of patients with esophageal or gastroesophageal junction cancer.

Secondary

  • To assess the toxicity of gefitinib monotherapy in these patients.
  • To assess whether gefitinib vs placebo will have a significant positive or negative impact upon quality of life of these patients.
  • To assess the impact gefitinib vs placebo will have on progression-free survival of these patients.
