Summary

The study aims to randomize 52 patients with advanced (Stage IV) EGFR mutation negative nonsquamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who respond (CR/PR/SD) to 4 cycles of pemetrexed / cisplatin or pemetrexed/carboplatin as first-line therapy. In order to achieve that, approximately 144 treatment naïve patients with advanced nonsquamous NSCLC need to be enrolled from around 6 investigational sites in Taiwan that have expertise in lung cancer diagnosis.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Pemetrexed 500mg/m2 iv

EGFR mutation negative patients who continuously respond (CR, PR or SD) to the 4th cycle of pemetrexed/ cisplatin or pemetrexed/carboplatin will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either gefitinib/ pemetrexed, or pemetrexed alone as maintenance therapy until progression of disease (PD) or discontinuation of treatment for other reasons.

DRUG

Pemetrexed 500mg/m2 iv and Gefitinib 250 mg

EGFR mutation negative patients who continuously respond (CR, PR or SD) to the 4th cycle of pemetrexed/ cisplatin or pemetrexed/carboplatin will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either gefitinib/ pemetrexed, or pemetrexed alone as maintenance therapy until progression of disease (PD) or discontinuation of treatment for other reasons.
