A Phase 2 Randomized Study of Tarceva (Erlotinib) as a Single Agent or Intercalated With Combination Chemotherapy in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Who Have Tumors With EGFR Protein Overexpression and/or Increased EGFR Gene Copy Numbers
A Phase 2 Randomized Study of Tarceva (Erlotinib) as a Single Agent or Intercalated With Combination Chemotherapy in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Who Have Tumors With EGFR Protein Overexpression and/or Increased EGFR Gene Copy Numbers
This will be the first prospective study where patients will be selected on the basis of two measures of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) pathway. The study will assess prospectively the efficacy of erlotinib as a single agent or intercalated with chemotherapy in highly selected patients with EGFR overexpression and/or EGFR amplification.
