A Study to Assess the Incidence of EGFR Mutation in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Locally Advanced or Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer in the UK, And of Tarceva (Erlotinib) as First-Line Therapy in EGFR Mutation Positive Patients.

February 16, 2016 updated by: Hoffmann-La Roche

Assess the Incidence of Mutations in the Tyrosine Kinase Domain of the Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor in UK Patients With Newly Diagnosed Metastatic or Recurrent Non-small Cell Lung Cancer and to Investigate the Quality of Life of These Patients Undergoing First-line Therapy With Erlotinib.

This study will assess the prevalence of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations in newly diagnosed patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Patients with positive EGFR mutation results will enter an open-label, single arm study to evaluate progression-free survival and quality of life with first-line Tarceva (erlotinib) therapy. Patients will receive Tarceva at a dose of 150 mg orally daily. Anticipated time on study treatment is until progressive disease or unacceptable toxicity occurs. Patients with negative EGFR mutation results will be offered treatment as per the centre's standard of care.

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 Who Tested Positive for EGFR Mutations
Time Frame: 14 days
All participants newly diagnosed with recurrent or metastatic NSCLC were tested for EGFR exon 19 deletion or exon 21 mutations.
14 days
Percentage of Participants With EGFR Mutations by Subgroup
Time Frame: 14 Days
Incidence of EGFR mutations were summarized with respect to different subgroups as follows: (1) equals (=) Histopathology, (2) = Stage of disease, (3) = Age at consent, (4) = Gender, (5) = Race, (6) = Smoking history.
14 Days

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 a Response by Best Objective Tumor Response
Time Frame: Screening, Day 1 of each 6 week visit starting from Visit 3 until PD, Death, Unacceptable Toxicity or Withdrawal of Consent up to 34 months
Best objective response was defined as the best response recorded from the start of treatment until disease progression/recurrence. Tumor response was assessed according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1". Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to less than (<)10 millimeters (mm). Partial Response (PR): At least a 30 percent (%) decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters. Progressive Disease (PD): At least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this may include the baseline sum). The sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. Stable Disease (SD): Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD.
Screening, Day 1 of each 6 week visit starting from Visit 3 until PD, Death, Unacceptable Toxicity or Withdrawal of Consent up to 34 months
Probability of Being Alive and Free of Progression by Timepoint
Time Frame: Months 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, and 18
Progression Free Survival (PFS) was defined as the interval (number of days) from the trial treatment start date to the earlier of the date of the first tumor response assessment of PD or the date of death by any cause. Participants who experienced neither of these events or who were lost to followup at the time of the analysis were censored at date of last contact. PFS was summarized according to the Kaplan-Meier method.
Months 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, and 18
Survival Time in Months
Time Frame: Baseline, Day 1 of each 6-week visit starting from Visit 3 until PD, Death, Unacceptable toxicity or Withdrawal of consent up to 34 months
Duration of time in months from Screening until Death due to any cause.
Baseline, Day 1 of each 6-week visit starting from Visit 3 until PD, Death, Unacceptable toxicity or Withdrawal of consent up to 34 months
Quality of Life Assessment Using EuroQol(EQ) 5D Visual Analog Score (VAS) Instrument
Time Frame: Screening, Baseline and Final or Withdrawal Visit up to 34 months
The EQ-5D contains a descriptive system that measures 5 health dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activity, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. The EQ-5D also contains a visual analog scale (EQ-VAS), which records the respondent's self-rated health status on a vertical graduated visual analog scale ranging from 0 (worst imaginable health state) to 100 (best imaginable health state). A negative change indicates improvement.
Screening, Baseline and Final or Withdrawal Visit up to 34 months
