High Dose Versus Routine Dose Icotinib in Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Patients With Stable Disease

Phase 2
Conditions
Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT02027090
Lead Sponsor
Betta Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd.
Brief Summary

We hypothesize that higher dose icotinib is related with better efficacy. The primary objective is to compare the progression-free survival of higher dose and routine dose of icotinib in treating pretreated advanced non-small cell lung cancer patients with stable disease after 8-week routine dose icotinib treatment.
