ZD1839 (Iressa™) and Concurrent Chemo-Radiation in Patients With Locally Advanced Non Small Cell Lung Cancer

December 16, 2007 updated by: AstraZeneca

A Phase I Trial to Evaluate ZD1839(Iressa™) and Concurrent Chemo-Radiation in Patients With Locally Advanced Non Small Cell Lung Cancer

The primary objective of the trial is to determine the Maximum tolerated dose, if any, of the combination of daily ZD1839 250 mg with carboplatin AUC 2 and 60 Gray (Gy) irradiation and up to 45 mg/m2 paclitaxel.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
To determine the Maximum tolerated dose, if any, of the combination of daily ZD1839 250 mg with carboplatin AUC 2 and 60 Gray (Gy) irradiation and up to 45 mg/m2 paclitaxel.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
To evaluate the activity potential of the combination of ZD1839, carboplatin, paclitaxel & radiation therapy
Estimating the objective response rate (complete response [CR] & partial response [PR]) as assessed by positron emission tomography with (18F)-labelled fluorodeoxyglucose (PET-FDG)
To estimate the objective response rate (CR and PR) as assessed by computerised tomography (CT) scan
To estimate the complete response rate (CR) as assessed by PET-FDG
To estimate progression free survival (PFS) as assessed by clinical examination, chest x-ray, CT scan ± PET-FDG
To estimate overall survival
To characterise the safety and tolerability of ZD1839 combined with concurrent carboplatin, paclitaxel and radiation
To determine the site of first failure (characterised as local-regional, distant or both)
