An Expanded Access Programme With Iressa for Patients With Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer and Cancer of the Head and Neck

March 5, 2019 updated by: AstraZeneca

An International Expanded Access Clinical Programme With ZD1839 (IRESSA) for Patients With Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer(NSCLC) and Patients With Recurrent or Metastatic or Both Recurrent and Metastatic Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck (H&NC)

The purpose of this study is to provide ZD1839 for those patients with locally advanced and/or metastatic non-operable non-small cell lung cancer (stage III or IV) or recurrent and/or metastatic squamous cell head and neck cancer who receive the therapy on an expanded access basis due to their inability to meet eligibility criteria for on-going recruiting trials, inability to participate in other clinical trials (e.g., poor performance status, lack of geographic proximity), or because other medical interventions are not considered appropriate or acceptable.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Approved for marketing

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Expanded Access

Expanded Access Type

Expanded Access Type

Describes the category of expanded access under U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations. There are three types of expanded access:
  • Individual Patients: Allows a single patient, with a serious disease or condition who cannot participate in a clinical trial, access to a drug or biological product that has not been approved by the FDA. This category also includes access in an emergency situation.
  • Intermediate-size Population: Allows more than one patient (but generally fewer patients than through a Treatment IND/Protocol) access to a drug or biological product that has not been approved by the FDA. This type of expanded access is used when multiple patients with the same disease or condition seek access to a specific drug or biological product that has not been approved by the FDA.
  • Treatment IND/Protocol: Allows a large, widespread population access to a drug or biological product that has not been approved by the FDA. This type of expanded access can only be provided if the product is already being developed for marketing for the same use as the expanded access use.
  • Individual Patients

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 130 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Have received at least one course of standard systemic chemotherapy or radiation therapy
  • Are ineligible for chemotherapy or radiotherapy
  • Are ineligible or not candidates for enrollment in available ZD1839 trials for NSCLC or squamous cell H&NC
  • Are, in the investigators opinion, not medically suitable for chemotherapy.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Current eligibility (i.e., meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria except signed informed consent) for any ZD1839 protocol available to the patient, or previous enrollment in a blinded ZD1839 protocol
  • Patients from a blinded protocol may be considered for acceptance, with AstraZeneca's permission, only after trial completion and unblinding of all patients.
  • Patients eligible for or previously enrolled in an open-label or unblinded ZD1839 clinical trial may be considered for acceptance with AstraZeneca's permission
  • Incomplete healing from prior oncologic or other major surgery
