Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study will evaluate the combination of bevacizumab and erlotinib in elderly patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

There is no definite evidence of a superior therapy for advanced non-small cell lung cancer in elderly patients. With the exception of one known study, single agent erlotinib has not been studied exclusively in the elderly and the combination of erlotinib and bevacizumab has never been studied exclusively in the treatment naive elderly. This is an important population that needs less toxic therapies.
