Participant Flow

We recruited patients to this multicenter, single-arm, phase II clinical trial with ECOG PS 0 to 2 and advanced NSCLC who were previously treated with erlotinib or gefitinib. Patients with asymptomatic, stable CNS metastases were eligible. 18 eligible patients were enrolled in the first stage of the trial between October 2006 and March 2009.

All patients were required to have an available tissue sample for EGFR mutation testing, which was performed centrally at a CLIA-certified laboratory.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 8 weeks

Population: The trial used a Simon two-stage design, which enrolled 18 pts in the first stage and was to proceed to enroll an additional 28 evaluable patients if 1 or more response was observed in the first group. This design provided a 57% chance of early termination if the true response rate was \<3%. PFSand OS were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method.
