Sorafenib and Erlotinib in Treating Patients With Stage IIIB or Stage IV Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer That Has Not Responded to Chemotherapy
A Phase 2 study testing erlotinib hydrochloride, sorafenib tosylate and DNA analysis in people with Lung Cancer, run by Yonsei University at 1 site in South Korea.
Trial summary
RATIONALE: Sorafenib and erlotinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Sorafenib may also stop the growth of non-small cell lung cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving sorafenib together with erlotinib may kill more tumor cells. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: A Multicenter, Open-label, Phase II Study of Sorafenib in Combination With Erlotinib in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) Refractory to One or Two Prior Chemotherapy Regimens
RATIONALE: Sorafenib and erlotinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Sorafenib may also stop the growth of non-small cell lung cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving sorafenib together with erlotinib may kill more tumor cells.
PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving sorafenib together with erlotinib works in treating patients with stage IIIB or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer that has not responded to chemotherapy.
Read the detailed description
OBJECTIVES:
Primary
- To assess the response rate of sorafenib tosylate in combination with erlotinib hydrochloride in patients with stage IIIB-IV non-small cell lung cancer refractory to 1 or 2 prior chemotherapy regimens.
Secondary
- To assess the response duration in patients treated with this regimen.
- To assess the disease control rate in patients treated with this regimen.
- To assess the progression-free survival of patients treated with this regimen.
- To assess the overall survival of patients treated with this regimen.
- To assess the safety and tolerability of this regimen in these patients.
- To analyze biomarkers, including evaluation of EGFR expression, mutational analysis of EGFR and K-ras, and immunohistochemical analysis of EGFR downstream pathway (phospho-EGFR, phospho-AKT, phospho-Erk, phospho-STAT3).
OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.
Patients receive oral erlotinib hydrochloride once daily and oral sorafenib tosylate twice daily on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Tissue samples are analyzed at the nucleic acid level for EGFR mutation (exon 18-21) and K-ras mutation (exon 2), DNA mutations via PCR, presence of EGFR protein by IHC, and downstream effectors of EGFR activation by IHC.
After completion of study therapy, patients are followed periodically.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing erlotinib hydrochloride, sorafenib tosylate and DNA analysis in people with Lung Cancer, run by Yonsei University at 1 site in South Korea.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Aug 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Results are not available in the source record.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Tumor response based on RECIST criteria. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00801385, which also lists 1 linked publication.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 Aug 2009; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
