Title:

A phase II trial of induction of erlotinib followed by cytotoxic chemotherapy for EGFR mutation-positive non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer patients

Published date:

Excerpt:
In this phase II trial, chemotherapy-naïve patients harboring activating EGFR mutations with stage IIIB/IV or post-surgical recurrent non-squamous NSCLC were enrolled….Eleven patients achieved a PR after induction of erlotinib and 9 out of 11 patients were switched to chemotherapy. The 1-year PFS rate was 45.0% (90% CI 26.8-63.2), the overall RR was 55.0%, and the median PFS was 10.7 months in the intention-to-treat (ITT) population.
