APRiCOT-L: Study to Evaluate Efficacy and Safety of Apricoxib With Erlotinib in Patients With Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (TP2001-201)

March 13, 2012 updated by: Tragara Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

APRiCOT-L (Apricoxib in Combination Oncology Treatment - Lung) A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Multicenter Phase 2 Study of the Efficacy and Safety of Apricoxib in Combination With Erlotinib in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients

This study will compare the anti-tumor efficacy of apricoxib and erlotinib with placebo and erlotinib as measured by time to disease progression to test the hypothesis that down regulation of COX-2 and EGFR pathways in patients with up-regulated COX-2 expression in tumor will have a clinical benefit compared with erlotinib alone.
