Iressa 2nd Line Phase III Study in Japan
This study has been completed.
Sponsored by: AstraZeneca
Information provided by: AstraZeneca
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00252707
  Purpose

In this study, among the patients with non-small cell lung cancer, those with metastasis or recurrence and previous treatment with chemotherapy will receive gefitinib or docetaxel, and we will compare the effectiveness and safety of gefitinib with docetaxel.


Condition Intervention Phase
Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Drug: Gefitinib or Docetaxel
Phase III

MedlinePlus related topics: Cancer Lung Cancer
Drug Information available for: Docetaxel ZD1839
U.S. FDA Resources
Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Treatment, Randomized, Open Label, Active Control, Parallel Assignment, Efficacy Study
Official Title: A Multicentre, Randomised, Open-Label, Parallel-Group, Phase III Post-Marketing Clinical Study to Compare the Overall Survival Between Gefitinib and Docetaxel in Patients With Advanced or Metastatic (Stage IIIB/IV), or Recurrent Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, Who Have Failed One or Two Chemotherapy Regimens

Further study details as provided by AstraZeneca:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Determine the overall survival with these treatments as the primary outcome.

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Determine the followings as the secondary outcome variables:
  • - Progression-free survival (PFS)
  • - Time to treatment failure (TTF)
  • - Objective tumour response (CR, PR) and the disease control rate (CR, PR, SD [≥12 weeks]) based on the RECIST guidelines
  • - Lung cancer subscale (LCS)
  • - QOL according to FACT-L questionnaire
  • - Frequency and severity of adverse events.
  • Determine the followings as the exploratory outcome variables:
  • - Biomarkers related to expression, activation and dimerisation of EGFR and other ErbB family receptors and associated pathways including downstream signalling pathways
  • - Biomarkers related to somatic (non-inheritable) mutation analyses of genes of the ErbB family, their signalling pathways and associated pathways which are thought to be influenced by gefitinib in tumour cells.
