Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
In clinical practice some of the initially EGFR-TKI sensitive tumors which progressed evidence a striking increase in tumor volume within several weeks, after being taken off EGFR-TKI. This response is called "rebound phenomenon". Most experts still believe that these tumors continue to be "oncogene-addicted" to EGFR. So it is rational that EGFR-TKI combined with another chemotherapy regimen can be used to treat NSCLC after the failure of EGFR-TKI therapy.
However in some phase Ⅱclinical trials involved a few NSCLC patients who failed to EGFR-TKI therapy, another treatment mode, that is to say, at least one cytotoxic chemotherapy was used firstly then switched to EGFR-TKI therapy until progression of disease, was used and called reintroduction or retreatment of EGFR-TKI. Using this treatment mode, some investigators reported the partial remission (PR) and disease control rate (DCR) were observed in 21.7%-36% and 65.2%-86% NSCLC patients.
