NCT02319577

Brief Summary

A sub-population of patients affected by non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with activating mutations of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) do not gain benefit from treatment with tyrosine-kinase inhibitors (TKIs). The hypothesis of this study is that the addition of chemotherapy with oral vinorelbine to first-line TKI might result in improved outcomes in EGFR-mutated patients.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Progression-free survival (PFS) rate at 6 months

    Progression-free survival is defined as the time from randomization until disease progression or death due to any cause.

    6 months; tumor assessment is performed every 6 weeks from randomization until progressive disease

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Overall survival (OS) rate at 1 year (1Y-OS), 2 years (2Y-OS), and 3 years (3Y-OS)

    Overall survival assessment is performed at every visit from randomization of each patient until his/her death

  • Response rate (RR)

    tumor assessment is performed every 6 weeks from the start of study treatment until progressive disease

  • Safety profile: Safety will be assessed by medical interview, physical examination, and blood collection for complete blood count on days 1 and 8 and biochemistry

    assessment of safety profile is performed at every visit (on day 1 and day 8 of each 21-days cycle) from the start of study treatment until three weeks after its interruption due to intolerance or progressive disease

Study Arms (2)

Gefitinib plus oral vinorelbine

EXPERIMENTAL

Arm A (21-days cycles until progressive disease or unacceptable toxicity): Oral vinorelbine 60 mg/mq on days 1,8 Gefitinib 250 mg daily from day 9 to day 21

Drug: oral vinorelbineDrug: Gefitinib

Gefitinib alone

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Arm B (21-days cycles until progressive disease or unacceptable toxicity): Gefitinib 250 mg daily from day 1 to day 21

Drug: Gefitinib

Also known as: Navelbine

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Signed informed consent
  • At least 18 years old
  • Histologically confirmed NSCLC
  • Stage IV disease
  • Evidence of activating mutations of EGFR
  • Measurable disease (assessed by RECIST 1.1)
  • No previous chemotherapy or biological therapy for NSCLC
  • Previous radiation treatment is allowed, unless all the eligible target lesions have been irradiated, and provided that at least 2 weeks have passed from the end of radiation therapy to the start of the treatment in the study
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status : 0-1
  • Adequate baseline bone marrow, hepatic and renal function
  • In presence of central nervous system metastases, the patient has to be asymptomatic for at least 4 weeks before starting treatment in the study
  • Patients who had received neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy, or concurrent chemo-radiation for non-metastatic, radically treated NSCLC are considered eligible, provided that they had not received vinorelbine as part of such treatment
  • Female patients must provide a negative pregnancy test (serum or urine) prior to treatment

You may not qualify if:

  • Grade III-IV New York Heart Association (HYHA) cardiac dysfunction
  • Acute myocardial infarction or pulmonary embolism in the last 6 months
  • Brain metastases or meningeal carcinomatosis or spinal cord compression, unless controlled and asymptomatic for at least 30 days before starting study treatment
  • HIV positivity or AIDS requiring pharmacological treatment
  • Pregnancy or lactation
