Filter by:This phase I/II trial studies the best dose and side effects of nimotuzumab when giving together with nivolumab and to see how well they work in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment. Monoclonal antibodies, such as nimotuzumab and nivolumab, may block tumor growth in different ways by targeting certain cells.
The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of EGFR-TKIs(Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor-Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors) treatment plus concurrent chemotherapy versus sequential treatment with EGFR-TKIs and chemotherapy in patients with EGFR(Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor)-mutant non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Treatment efficacy of afatinib will be assessed in patients with lung cancer harboring EGFR mutations which were detected from circulating tumor DNA.
1. Compare the effect and safety of gefitinib alone with gefitinib plus concomitant WBRT(whole-brain radiotherapy ) in treatment of NSCLC patients harboring an EGFR mutation with multiple BM. 2. Verify the failure pattern of NSCLC patients harboring an EGFR mutation with multiple BM. 3. Explore the rescuable therapy after progression of disease.
Numerous evidences verified that erlotinib could dramatically improve the PFS and OS of non-small cell lung cancers who harbor EGFR sensitive mutations, however, primary or secondary resistance will be developed after TKI treatment, doctors do plenty of researches to overcome TKI resistance. FAST ACT-2 study present that, first line erlotinib combined with chemotherapy could improved mOS to more than 30 months in NSCLCs who harbor EGFR sensitive mutations, several study shows that sensitive mutations still exist after TKI resistance, because of the next generation TKIs(such as BIBW2992) are not avaliable at present, agents for met amplification(such as Crizotinib) are so expensive that many Chinese patients could not support. Thus, the investigators hypothesis that, after first line TKI treatment, the patients who developed TKI resistance could still benefit from second line TKI combined with chemotherapy.
