NCT00242762

Brief Summary

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the activity of the combination ZD1839, docetaxel and cisplatin in subjects with recurrent and/or metastatic head and neck cancer by estimating the objective response rate (complete response \[CR\] and partial response \[PR\]) at study closure.

  • Less than 6 months since prior induction or adjuvant platinum and/or taxanes chemotherapy
  • Known severe hypersensitivity to ZD1839 or any of the excipients of this product
  • Known, severe hypersensitivity to docetaxel or cisplatin or any of the excipients of these products, or to other drugs formulated with polysorbate 80
  • Other co-existing malignancies or malignancies diagnosed within the last 5 years with the exception of basal cell carcinoma or cervical cancer in situ
  • Any unresolved chronic toxicity greater than common toxicity criteria (CTC) grade 2 from previous anticancer therapy (except alopecia)

  • Creatinine clearance less than 60 ml/min assessed in over a 24 hour urine collection
  • As judged by the investigator, any evidence of severe or uncontrolled systemic disease (e.g., unstable or uncompensated respiratory, cardiac, hepatic, or renal disease)
  • Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) greater than 1.5 times the ULRR or alkaline phosphatase (ALP) greater than 2.5 times the ULRR
  • Evidence of any other significant clinical disorder or laboratory finding that makes it undesirable for the subject to participate in the study
