Erlotinib Combined With Chemotherapy in TKI Resistant Non-Small Cell Lung Cancers

NCT02098954

Description:

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.

Purpose

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.

Detailed Description

      The investigators will enroll patients diagnosed with advanced non-squamous,non-small cell
      lung cancer, patients with EGFR TKI sensitive mutations and developed TKI resistance in first
      line treatment. After enrollment, the investigators will do biopsy again before second line
      treatment to find out the potential mechanism of TKI resistance, do EGFR mutation test for
      both sensitive and resistant mutation in exon 18, 19, 20 and 21; do KRAS, BRAF and PI3K
      mutation test, do FISH for MET and HER-2, the investigators do all these test to evaluated
      both primary and secondary resistance, the investigators do all these tests to get an
      overview for EGFR mutation status of each patient who develop TKI resistance. For second line
      treatment, patients will received a 28 days gemcitabine platinum combined with erlotinib
      scheme, after 4 cycle of combined chemotherapy, patients will receive erlotinib for further
      treatment until progression disease. For the patients who have stable brain metastases,
      combined chemotherapy should begin after local treatment, such as whole brain radiotherapy or
      sterotactic radiosurgery.

      the main endpoint of this study is mean PFS, second endpoints of this study consist of mean
      OS, 8 week ORR.

        Inclusion Criteria:

          -  advanced non-small cell lung cancer, stage IIIB/IV

          -  non-squamous

          -  EGFR sensitive mutations, such as exon 19 del, or exon 21 L858R

          -  received first line TKIs treatment and developed TKI resistance

          -  ECOG 0-2

        Exclusion Criteria:

          -  squamous non-small cell lung cancer

          -  patients have unstable brain metastasis, predict survival less than 8 weeks

          -  spinal-cord compression without evidence of stabilisation or treatment

          -  women who were pregnant or lactating; women with a positive or no available pregnancy
             test result at baseline

Maximum Eligible Age:75 Years
Minimum Eligible Age:18 Years
Eligible Gender:All
Healthy Volunteers:No

Primary Outcome Measures

Measure:mean progression free survival(mPFS)
Time Frame:after patients receive treatment, mPFS should be measured before the third cycle of chemotherapy, after the fourth cycle, mPFS should be measured every 3 months up to two years
Safety Issue:
Description:mean progression free survival(mPFS) will be recorded in enroll patients who received second line gemcitabine platinum combined with erlotinib. mPFS should be measured before second line treatment, before the third combined chemotherapy, after the fourth combined chemotherapy, every 3 months during erlotinib treatment, mPFS should be measured up to two years or every time progression disease occurs within two years.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Measure:mean overall survival(mOS)
Time Frame:every 3 months up to 3 years, or until all the survival data is obtained
Safety Issue:
Description:mOS should be measured since enrollment, every 3 months we will contact patients to find out detail survival data of each patient until 3 years, or within 3 years if all survival data is obtained.
Measure:8 week overall response rate(8 week ORR)
Time Frame:8 week ORR should be measured after enrollment, the exact time point should be the ninth week after combined chemotherapy
Safety Issue:
Description:8 week ORR should be measured after enrollment, after combined chemotherapy for 8 weeks, the exact time point should be the ninth week during combined chemotherapy. CR, PR, SD shoud be measured according to RESICT 1.1
