- Brief Summary
9th JSMO annual meeting 2011 [Purpose] To evaluate the efficacy and safety of erlotinib in patients with previously treated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), a phase II trial was studied in Kochi prefecture.[Patients and methods] Patients with stage IIIB/IV NSCLC and performance status 2 or lower, previously treated with 1 or 2 non- EGFR-TKI regimens were eligible. The enrollment has started since august 2009. Patients received Erlotinib (150mg/day) until disease progression or intolerable toxicity. Primary end point was the response rate (RR). In addition, disease control rate (DCR), progression free survival (PFS), and safety were evaluated.[Results] Thirty eight patients were enrolled, and 32 patients were evaluated. Median age was 69 years (range, 57 years to 80 years). Characteristics of patients were as follows: men/women, 21/11; PS0/1/2, 11/16/5; adenocarcinoma/ non-adenocarcinoma, 23/9. The objective RR and DCR were 31% and 65%, respectively. Twenty one patients could be evaluated for EGFR status (9 mutated/ 11 wild type). The RR of EGFR mutated patients was 67%, while wild type 17%. PFS of 24 cases were evaluated as 117 days. Major adverse events were tolerable skin toxicities, diarrhea, and stomatitis.[Conclusion] Erlotinib was efficacious in patients with previously treated NSCLC. Efficacy and safety were similar to previous reports.
