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

Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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 and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Recurrent or progressive Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) stage IV or IIIB patients after chemotherapy following gefitinib failure
  • Male and female patients aged over 18 years
  • World Health Organization (WHO) performance status 0-2 (those with performance status 2 must have been stable with no deterioration over the previous 2 weeks)
  • Had at least stable disease with previous Gefitinib treatment
  • Had at least one anticancer agent therapy after gefitinib failure ;Following treatment with another epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs)- erlotinib or other TKIs should not be included in anticancer agent therapy.
  • The current approved indication of Gefitinib is 2nd or 3rd line monotherapy for recurrent or metastatic NSCLC. However, in practice with off-label indication, it can also be used as a 1st line treatment at the patient's own expenses. Thus, in this trial gefitinib retreatment will be 3rd line or more.
  • Measurable lesion according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors(RECIST) with at least one measurable lesion not previously irradiated, unless disease progression has been documented at that site.
  • Provision of written informed consent
  • Life expectancy of at least 12 weeks

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Evidence of clinically active Interstitial Lung Diseases (Patients with chronic, stable, radiographic changes who are asymptomatic need not be excluded)
  • Expected life expectancy less than 2 months
  • Known severe hypersensitivity to gefitinib or any of the excipients of this product
  • Any unresolved chronic toxicity greater that Common Terminology Criteria (CTC) grade 2 from previous anticancer therapy
  • As judged by the investigator, any evidence of severe or uncontrolled systemic disease (e.g. unstable or uncompensated respiratory, cardiac, hepatic, or renal disease)
  • Serum bilirubin greater than 3 times the upper limit of reference range (ULRR)
  • Aspartate aminotransferase (AST/SGOT) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT/SGPT) ≥ 2.5 x Upper Limit Normal (ULN) if no demonstrable liver metastases (or >5 x in presence of liver metastases)
  • Evidence of any other significant clinical disorder or laboratory finding that makes it undesirable for the subject to participate in the study
  • Pregnancy or breast-feeding women (women of child¬bearing potential). Women of childbearing potential must practice acceptable methods of birth control to prevent pregnancy.
  • Newly diagnosed central nervous system (CNS) metastases that have not yet been treated with surgery and/or radiation. Patients with previously diagnosed and treated CNS metastases or spinal cord compression may be considered if they have evidence of clinically stable disease (no steroid therapy or steroid dose being tapered) for at least 2 weeks

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Disease Control(DC) Rate of Gefitinib Retreatment Per RECIST Criteria (V1.1) and Assessed by CT
Time Frame: 8 weeks
Evaluation of treatment response by computed tomography (CT) was performed after the first 4 weeks according to version 1.1 of the guidelines set out by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Committee. Disease control rate (DCR) was defined as the percentage sum of best tumor response of complete response (CR), partial response (PR), and stable disease (SD).
8 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Overall Survival
Time Frame: 2 years
2 years
Progression - Free Survival of Patients Retreated With Gefitinib
Time Frame: two year
Progression is defined, using RECIST (V1.1), as a measurable increase in the smallest dimension of any target or non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions, since baseline using CT scan every 8 weeks.
two year
