About this study

Official title: The Continuation of Erlotinib Treatment in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Patients Whose Brain Lesion is the Only Site of Progression : Pilot Study

Newly developed or progressive brain metastasis during erlotinib treatment is considered progressive disease requiring change of treatment regimens despite no progression in extracranial lesions. Given that there is a dissociation in terms of response to erlotinib between brain and extracranial sites, we intend to conduct this pilot study to determine whether the continuation of erlotinib treatment can prolong the progression free interval of extracranial lesions as long as cranial lesion is controlled separately by conventional treatment modalities such as surgical resection, stereotactic radiosurgery, and whole brain radiotherapy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Erlotinib (TARCEVA®) in people with Non-small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Samsung Medical Center 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?

The sponsor lists 10 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. 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 26 May 2010. 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?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

progression free survival (time frame: 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 26 May 2010.
