A Study of Tarceva (Erlotinib) in First Line in Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Lung Adenocarcinoma With EGFR Mutations

December 29, 2015 updated by: Hoffmann-La Roche

Open Label Study of Erlotinib (Tarceva®) as Single Agent First Line Treatment of Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Lung Adenocarcinoma With Activating Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) Mutations

This open-label, non-randomized, one-arm study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of Tarceva (erlotinib) as single-agent first-line treatment in patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer who show epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) activating mutations. Patients will receive Tarceva 150 mg orally daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs.

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.

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:

  • Adult patients, >/= 18 years of age
  • Histologically or cytologically documented, inoperable, locally advanced, recurrent or metastatic (Stage IIIB or Stage IV) lung adenocarcinoma
  • Non-small cell lung cancer with an EGFR activating mutation
  • Patients must have evidence of disease, but measurable disease is not mandatory
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-2
  • Adequate renal and liver function

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Prior chemotherapy or other systemic anti-cancer treatment. Neoadjuvant/adjuvant chemotherapy is allowed if completed within 6 months prior to enrolment. Prior radiochemotherapy is allowed if completed more than 6 months before start of study treatment
  • Prior therapy with systemic anti-tumour therapy with HER1/EGFR inhibitors
  • Any other malignancies within 5 years, except for adequately treated carcinoma in situ of the cervix or basal or squamous cell skin carcinoma
  • Brain metastasis or spinal cord compression not yet definitely treated with surgery and/or radiation
  • Patients unable to take oral medication or requiring intravenous alimentation, with prior surgical procedures affecting absorption or active peptic ulcer disease
  • Any significant ophthalmologic abnormality, especially those likely to increase the risk of corneal epithelial lesions; the use of contact lenses is not recommended during the study
  • Pregnant or breast-feeding women

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)
Time Frame: Baseline to progressive disease or death (up to 34 months)
PFS was defined as median time from the first dose of study treatment to the first documentation of objective tumor progression (according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours [RECIST] version 1.1) or to death due to any cause, whichever occurred first. Progressive Disease (PD) was defined as at least a 20 percent (%) increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. Unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions. The appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered progression. Median and the 95% confidence interval were estimated using Kaplan-Meier survival methodology.
Baseline to progressive disease or death (up to 34 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 Best Overall Response (BOR)
Time Frame: Baseline to progressive disease or death (up to 34 months)
BOR was defined as best tumor response (as per RECIST version 1.1) recorded for a participant during the study. Complete Response (CR): disappearance of all target and non-target lesions and normalization of tumor marker level. All lymph nodes must be non-pathological in size (less than [<] 10 millimeters [mm] short axis). Partial Response (PR): at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. PD: at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. Unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions. The appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered progression. Stable Disease (SD): neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as reference the smallest sum diameters while on study.
Baseline to progressive disease or death (up to 34 months)
Percentage of Participants Who Were Alive at 1 Year
Time Frame: 1 Year (12 months)
1 Year (12 months)
