Summary

This double-blind, placebo-controlled study will evaluate the benefit of first-line maintenance erlotinib (Tarceva) versus erlotinib at the time of disease progression in participants with advanced NSCLC who have not progressed following 4 cycles of platinum based-chemotherapy and whose tumor does not harbor an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-activating mutation. Participants will be randomized to receive either erlotinib 150 milligrams (mg) orally (PO) once daily or placebo. Participants who progress on placebo will receive erlotinib 150 mg PO once daily as second-line therapy, and those who progress on erlotinib may switch to a non-investigational, second-line chemotherapy. Treatments will continue until disease progression, death, or unacceptable toxicity. Participants may also be entered into a final Survival Follow-Up (SFU) period upon treatment discontinuation.

Conditions

  • Non-Squamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Interventions

DRUG

Placebo

Placebo will be administered PO once daily as first-line maintenance until disease progression, death, or unacceptable toxicity.

DRUG

Erlotinib

Erlotinib will be administered as 150 mg PO once daily until disease progression, death, or unacceptable toxicity, as first-line maintenance or as second-line therapy for those who progress while receiving placebo.

DRUG

Second-Line Chemotherapy

Participants who progress on first-line maintenance erlotinib may receive an approved second-line therapy (but not EGFR targeted therapies) until disease progression, death, or unacceptable toxicity. The selected chemotherapy will be non-investigational and chosen at the discretion of the Investigator.
