A Study on the Correlation Between Tarceva (Erlotinib) - Induced Rash and Efficacy in EGFR Mutated Participants With Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Receiving First-Line Therapy

September 14, 2018 updated by: Hoffmann-La Roche

A Multi-Center Study Investigating the Correlation Between TARCEVA ®-Induced Rash and Efficacy Among EGFR-mutated NSCLC Patients Receiving First-line Therapy

This open-label, single arm study will assess the correlation between Tarceva (erlotinib)-induced rash and efficacy in participants with inoperable, locally advanced, recurrent or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) receiving first-line therapy for advanced disease. Participants will receive Tarceva at a dose of 150 mg daily orally, with dose adjustments according to protocol depending on toxicity. Anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal due to any reason.

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

  • Presence of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations
  • Previously untreated with any systemic anti-neoplastic therapy for advanced disease
  • Last dose of a prior systemic anti-neoplastic therapy for early-stage disease >/= 4 weeks before study start, and patient recovered from acute toxicities of any previous therapy

Male participants had to be surgically sterile or agree to use a barrier method of contraception.

Male and female participants had to use effective contraception during the study and for a period of 90 days following the last administration of erlotinib.

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
Progression-free Survival (PFS) According to Grade of Rash
Time Frame: Day 1 of treatment period until disease progression or death (approximately up to 67 months)
PFS was defined as the time from start of treatment to the date of the first documented progression according to revised Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria version 1.1 or the date of death for any reason in the absence of progressive disease (PD). Disease progression was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions compared to smallest sum of diameters on-study and absolute increase of at least 5 mm, progression of existing non-target lesions, or presence of new lesions.
Day 1 of treatment period until disease progression or death (approximately up to 67 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
Percentage of Participants With Erlotinib Dose Reductions Due to Rash Grade 3-4
Time Frame: Day 1 of treatment period until disease progression or death (approximately up to 67 months)
Day 1 of treatment period until disease progression or death (approximately up to 67 months)
Progression-Free Survival (PFS) in Participants With Erlotinib Dose Reductions Due to Rash Grade 3-4
Time Frame: Day 1 of treatment period until disease progression or death (approximately up to 67 months)
PFS was defined as the time from start of treatment to the date of the first documented progression according to revised Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria version 1.1 or the date of death for any reason in the absence of progressive disease (PD). Disease progression was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions compared to smallest sum of diameters on-study and absolute increase of at least 5 mm, progression of existing non-target lesions, or presence of new lesions.
Day 1 of treatment period until disease progression or death (approximately up to 67 months)
