About this study
Official title: A Randomized, Controlled Phase 2 Study Evaluating LY2875358 Plus Erlotinib Versus Erlotinib as First-Line Treatment in Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients With Activating EGFR Mutations Who Have Disease Control After an 8-Week Lead-In Treatment With Erlotinib
The primary purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of the study drug LY2875358, given together with erlotinib, against erlotinib, alone. Participants will have Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) that has advanced to Stage IV. Participants should not have been treated with drugs for Stage IV NSCLC, previously. All participants will get erlotinib alone, for approximately 8 weeks. Participants with radiographic disease control at the end of the erlotinib lead-in study period will be randomly assigned to receive LY2875358 plus erlotinib or erlotinib alone. Participants, who were chosen to receive erlotinib, alone, may cross over to the combination treatment at the time of progression.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing LY2875358 and Erlotinib in people with Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung, run by Eli Lilly and Company at 45 sites in 9 countries.
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 6 inclusion and 7 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Jan 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 45 sites in South Korea, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and 4 more countries. 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?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
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 (PFS) (time frame: Randomization to Objective Disease Progression or Death Due to Any Cause (Estimated 3 Years)). 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 Jan 2026.
