Summary

An open-label phase I-II trial will be performed in 42 patients with pretreated locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer. The trial is designed to estimate the efficacy and to determine safety of NovoTTF-100L treatment combined with Pemetrexed for advanced NSCLC patients. Patients will receive standard Pemetrexed therapy (at 500 mg/m2 iv q3w for 3 cycles) concomitant to NovoTTF-100L therapy (12 hours a day, daily until the end of all three cycles of Alimta). Repeat treatments with Alimta + NovoTTF-100L will be offered as long as the patient is stable or responding. If there is a in-field response with progression outside of the NovoTTF field, Pemetrexed is to be stopped and third line chemotherapy with Docetaxel is to be initiated (35 mg/m2 weekly, d1, 8, 15, q 28 d).
