Group Intervention Description A. BIBW 2992-cisplatin-paclitaxel BIBW 2992 daily oral dose of BIBW 2992 combined with 3-weekly infusion of cisplatin-paclitaxel B. BIBW 2992-cisplatin-5FU BIBW 2992 daily oral dose of BIBW 2992 combined with 3-weekly infusion of cisplatin-5FU
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Number of Participants With Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLT) in the First Cycle for the Determination of the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) 21 days Number of participants with DLT in the first cycle (21 days) for the determination of the MTD.
Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) for Regimen A and Regimen B 21 days The MTD was determined using a standard 3 +3 dose escalation cohort design. The sample size and the number of patients who receive each dose in this design depends on the frequency of DLT at each dose level in cycle 1.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Number of Patients With Objective Response Tumor assessment were performed at screening and every 2nd cycle until end of follow up (=end of treatment + 30 days +/- 7 days) Objective tumor response based on response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) version 1.0. Objective response is defined as complete response (CR) and partial response (PR).
Maximum Concentration of Afatinib in Plasma at Steady State (Cmax,ss) 0.05hours (h) before administration and 1h, 2h, 2h 55 minutes (min), 4h, 4h 30min, 5h, 6h, 8h, 10h, 24h, 48h, 216h, 480h after administration Cmax,ss represents the maximum concentration of afatinib in plasma at steady state
