Erlotinib Versus Pemetrexed as Second-Line Therapy in Treating Patients With Advanced Lung Adenocarcinoma

Lung Cancer Clinical Trial

Official title:
A Randomized Phase II Trial of Erlotinib Versus Pemetrexed as Second-Line Therapy in Treating Patients With Advanced EGFR Wild-Type and EGFR FISH-Positive Lung Adenocarcinoma

Clinical Trial Summary

Both pemetrexed and erlotinib are second-line treatment options for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. It is controversial that whether it is necessary to detect epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation status for the EGFR-targeted therapy after the failure of standard chemotherapy. The role of EGFR gene copy number as a predictive marker remains controversial. Therefore, we investigate the efficacy of erlotinib and pemetrexed as second-line therapy in treating in patients with EGFR wild-type and EGFR FISH-positive advanced lung adenocarcinoma.

Clinical Trial Description

Standard first-line treatment for advanced-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) usually consists of platinum-based doublet chemotherapy, but progression ultimately occurs for most patients. Second-line treatment options available to patients who suffer failure of first-line treatment include further chemotherapy (docetaxel and pemetrexed) or targeted therapy. Epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) show great efficacy in patients with advanced NSCLC with EGFR mutation. High EGFR gene copy number was associated with great sensitivity and prolonged progression-free survival of NSCLC from EGFR-TKIs. This phase II study was designed to assess the efficacy and safety of erlotinib compared with pemetrexed as second-line treatment for EGFR wild-type and EGFR FISH-positive lung adenocarcinoma. ;
