A Study of Tarceva (Erlotinib) in Patients With Locally Advanced, Metastatic or Recurrent Non-Small Cell Cancer Who Present Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Mutations

Phase 2

Completed

• Conditions: Non-Squamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
• Interventions: Drug: erlotinib [Tarceva]

• Registration Number: NCT01372384
• Lead Sponsor: Hoffmann-La Roche

Brief Summary

This open-label study will assess the efficacy and safety of Tarceva (Erlotinib) in patients with locally advanced, metastatic or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer who have not received previous chemotherapy for their disease and who present epidermal growth factor receptor mutations. Patients will receive Tarceva 150 mg orally daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Progression-free Survival (Tumour Assessments According to RECIST Criteria)	Until participants had disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or died; approximately 24 months.	Progression free survival is (PFS) defined as the time from the first dose of Erlotinib to the date of first occurrence of disease progression or death.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Objective Response Rate (Investigator Assessed)	Visit 4, Visit 6, Visit 10 and Visit 22; (up to approximately 24 months)	Objective response rate (ORR) was defined by RECIST criteria: Partial response (PR) was defined as ≥ 30% decrease in the sum of longest diameter of all target lesions, from the baseline sum. Complete response (CR) was defined as disappearance of all target and non-target lesions. For CR or PR, tumor measurements must be confirmed by 2nd assessments within 4 weeks. Progression of disease (PD) = 20% increase in the sum of longest diameter of all target lesions, from smallest sum of longest diameter of all target lesions recorded at or after baseline; or a new lesion; or progression of non-target lesions. Stable Disease (SD) = Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as reference the smallest sum diameters while on the study.
Safety: Incidence of Adverse Events	Until participants had disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or died; approximately 24 months.	An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation patient administered a pharmaceutical product and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal (investigational) product. An SAE is any experience that suggests a significant hazard, contraindication, side effect, or precaution.
Overall Survival	Until participants had disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or died; approximately 24 months.	The overall survival (OS) is defined as the time from the first dose of Erlotinib to the date of death due to any cause.
