An Observational Study of Tarceva (Erlotinib) in Routine Daily Clinical Practice as Second Line Treatment in Patients With Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (TEAM)

February 25, 2016 updated by: Hoffmann-La Roche

A Non-interventional Study to Follow and Evaluate Patients With Advanced NSCLC Who Are Treated in Second Line Setting With Tarceva (Erlotinib) in a "Real Life" Clinical Setting

This observational study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of Tarceva (erlotinib) in routine clinical practice as second-line treatment in patients with recurrent or metastatic non-small dell lung cancer (NSCLC). Data will be collected from patients who have received 1 course of standard systemic chemotherapy, experienced disease progression, and who are receiveingTarceva in a second-line setting. Patients will also be followed through third-line treatment if there is disease progression on Tarceva therapy.

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

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Adult patients ≥ 18 years of age.

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
Percentage of Participants With a Best Overall Response of Complete Response (CR), Partial Response (PR), Stable Disease (SD), or Progressive Disease (PD)
Time Frame: Baseline to the end of the study (up to 4 years, 4 months)
The best overall response to treatment was determined by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1. A CR was defined as the disappearance of all target lesions (TL) or the disappearance of all non-TLs. A PR was defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter (SLD) of TLs, taking as reference the baseline SLD. SD was defined as neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for a PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as reference the smallest SLD since treatment started for TLs and the persistence of 1 or more non-TL(s). PD was defined as at least a 20% increase in the SLD of TLs, taking as reference the smallest SLD recorded since treatment started or the appearance of 1 or more new lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing non-TLs. For the best overall responses of CR and PR, a response was "confirmed" if a subsequent RECIST evaluation also showed a CR or PR.
Baseline to the end of the study (up to 4 years, 4 months)

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
Time to Disease Progression
Time Frame: Baseline to the end of the study (up to 4 years, 4 months)
The time to disease progression was defined as the time from Baseline until disease progression as determined by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1. Progressive disease was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum of the longest diameter recorded since treatment started or the appearance of 1 or more new lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions.
Baseline to the end of the study (up to 4 years, 4 months)
Progression-free Survival
Time Frame: Baseline to the end of the study (up to 4 years, 4 months)
Progression-free survival was defined as the time from Baseline until disease progression or death from any cause. Progressive disease was determined by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1. Progressive disease was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum of the longest diameter recorded since treatment started or the appearance of 1 or more new lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions.
Baseline to the end of the study (up to 4 years, 4 months)
Overall Survival
Time Frame: Baseline to the end of the study (up to 4 years, 4 months)
Overall survival was defined as the time from Baseline until or death from any cause
Baseline to the end of the study (up to 4 years, 4 months)
Change From Baseline in the Lung Cancer Symptom Scale (LCSS) Scores
Time Frame: Baseline to the end of the study (up to 4 years, 4 months)
Study participants and treating physicians completed the LCSS, a measure of Quality of Life (QoL), at Baseline and throughout the study. The patient LCSS measures 6 major symptoms, the Symptom Burden Index (SBI), associated with lung malignancies (3 thoracic [cough, dyspnea, haemoptysis] and 3 general symptoms [loss of appetite, fatigue, pain]) and 3 additional scores (overall symptomatic distress, interference with daily activities, global QoL), each on a 100 mm visual analogue scale (0=no impairment, 100=maximum impairment). The physician LCSS evaluates the 6 lung malignancy associated symptoms, the SBI, on an ordinal scale (100=none, 75=mild, 50=moderate, 25=marked, 0=severe). The average of the patient and physician SBI scores (6 symptoms) and the average of the patient total score (9 symptoms) ranged from 0 to 100, with a higher patient and a lower physician score indicating more impairment. A negative patient and a positive physician change score indicates improvement.
Baseline to the end of the study (up to 4 years, 4 months)
Percentage of Participants Who Developed Rash
Time Frame: Baseline to the end of the study (up to 4 years, 4 months)
At each study visit, the presence of skin rash was graded using the Common Toxicity Criteria (CTC), with grade 0 = no rash, grade 1 = mild, grade 2 = moderate, grade 3 = severe, and grade 4 = life threatening or disabling rash. Reported is the percentage of participants who developed a grade ≥ 1 rash.
Baseline to the end of the study (up to 4 years, 4 months)
