ZD6474 Alone or in Combination With Paclitaxel and Carboplatin in Subjects With Previously Untreated Locally Advanced or Metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)

A Randomized, Partially Blinded, Phase II Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability and Efficacy of ZD6474 Alone or in Combination With Paclitaxel and Carboplatin in Subjects With Previously Untreated Locally Advanced or Metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)

The purpose of the run-in phase of this study is to determine the appropriate and tolerable dose of ZD6474 (200mg or 300mg) to be administered in combination with paclitaxel and carboplatin in subjects with previously untreated locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC. This phase of the trial is closed to enrollment.

The purpose of the randomized phase of this study is to determine the efficacy of ZD6474 alone versus that of ZD6474 in combination with paclitaxel and carboplatin versus that of paclitaxel and carboplatin alone in subjects with previously untreated locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC. This phase of the trial is closed to enrollment.
