Information provided by: Thomas Jefferson University
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00328562
  Purpose

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of Iressa when used with a short course of high dose radiation therapy in patients with lung cancer.


Condition Intervention Phase
Non-Small-Cell Lung Carcinoma (NSCLC)
Drug: ZD1839 (Iressa)
Phase I

Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Treatment, Non-Randomized, Open Label, Historical Control, Single Group Assignment, Safety/Efficacy Study
Official Title: A Phase I Study of ZD1839 (Iressa) {IND#66,497} and Hypofractionated Thoracic Radiotherapy With Stereotactic Body Frame Immobilization for Patients With Advanced Non Small Cell Lung Cancer

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • The primary end point of this study will be treatment-related morbidity
  • Tumor response and survival will be followed as they relate to standard patient management, but will not represent primary end points for this phase I study.

Estimated Enrollment: 18
Study Start Date: December 2003
Estimated Study Completion Date: December 2008
Detailed Description:

To estimate treatment-related esophageal, pulmonary, hematologic, and other toxicity of patients with non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) receiving ZD1839 with hypofractionated thoracic radiotherapy (RT). All estimates of toxicity rates will be presented with corresponding confidence intervals using the exact method.

The method of Atkinson and Brown will be used due to the two-stage sampling; the method of Conover will be used for tumor response.

To estimate tumor response rates of this treatment regimen and identify the most effective RT dose level, defined as the level associated with the best response rate. Estimates of tumor response rates will be presented with corresponding confidence intervals using the exact method of Conover. Survival will be estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method.
