Background We conducted a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blindtrial to determine whether the epidermal growth factor receptorinhibitor erlotinib prolongs survival in nonsmall-celllung cancer after the failure of first-line or second-line chemotherapy.
Methods Patients with stage IIIB or IV nonsmall-celllung cancer, with performance status from 0 to 3, were eligibleif they had received one or two prior chemotherapy regimens.The patients were stratified according to center, performancestatus, response to prior chemotherapy, number of prior regimens,and prior platinum-based therapy and were randomly assignedin a 2:1 ratio to receive oral erlotinib, at a dose of 150 mgdaily, or placebo.
Results The median age of the 731 patients who underwent randomizationwas 61.4 years; 49 percent had received two prior chemotherapyregimens, and 93 percent had received platinum-based chemotherapy.The response rate was 8.9 percent in the erlotinib group andless than 1 percent in the placebo group (P<0.001); the medianduration of the response was 7.9 months and 3.7 months, respectively.Progression-free survival was 2.2 months and 1.8 months, respectively(hazard ratio, 0.61, adjusted for stratification categories;P<0.001). Overall survival was 6.7 months and 4.7 months,respectively (hazard ratio, 0.70; P<0.001), in favor of erlotinib.Five percent of patients discontinued erlotinib because of toxiceffects.
Conclusions Erlotinib can prolong survival in patients withnonsmall-cell lung cancer after first-line or second-linechemotherapy.
