Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess if the combination of erlotinib and chemotherapy (docetaxel in case of squamous cell NSCLC or pemetrexed in case of other histological types) is superior to erlotinib alone and has acceptable tolerability and safety in the 2nd line treatment of patients with advanced/metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Conditions

  • Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung

Interventions

DRUG

erlotinib plus docetaxel or pemetrexed

non-squamous carcinoma: pemetrexed 500 mg/m2 on Day 1 plus erlotinib 150 mg/day days 2-16, every 21 days. Pemetrexed will be given for a maximum of 4 cycles. Thereafter erlotinib will be continued continuously until disease progression. squamous carcinoma: Docetaxel 75mg/m2 on Day 1 plus erlotinib 150mg/day days 2-16, every 21 days. Docetaxel will be given for a maximum of 4 cycles. Thereafter erlotinib will be continued continuously until disease progression.
