Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
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 B21 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
NameTimeMethod
Number of Patients With Objective ResponseTumor 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
