Erlotinib Combined With Chemotherapy in TKI Resistant Non-Small Cell Lung Cancers

Second Line Erlitinib Combination With Gemcitabine Cisplatinum in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Patients Who Harbored EGFR Sensitive Mutation Developed Resistance After First Line TKI Treatment

Summary

Numerous evidences verified that erlotinib could dramatically improve the PFS and OS of non-small cell lung cancers who harbor EGFR sensitive mutations, however, primary or secondary resistance will be developed after TKI treatment, doctors do plenty of researches to overcome TKI resistance. FAST ACT-2 study present that, first line erlotinib combined with chemotherapy could improved mOS to more than 30 months in NSCLCs who harbor EGFR sensitive mutations, several study shows that sensitive mutations still exist after TKI resistance, because of the next generation TKIs(such as BIBW2992) are not avaliable at present, agents for met amplification(such as Crizotinib) are so expensive that many Chinese patients could not support. Thus, the investigators hypothesis that, after first line TKI treatment, the patients who developed TKI resistance could still benefit from second line TKI combined with chemotherapy.

Detailed description

The investigators will enroll patients diagnosed with advanced non-squamous,non-small cell lung cancer, patients with EGFR TKI sensitive mutations and developed TKI resistance in first line treatment. After enrollment, the investigators will do biopsy again before second line treatment to find out the potential mechanism of TKI resistance, do EGFR mutation test for both sensitive and resistant mutation in exon 18, 19, 20 and 21; do KRAS, BRAF and PI3K mutation test, do FISH for MET and HER-2, the investigators do all these test to evaluated both primary and secondary resistance, the investigators do all these tests to get an overview for EGFR mutation status of each patient who develop TKI resistance. For second line treatment, patients will received a 28 days gemcitabine platinum combined with erlotinib scheme, after 4 cycle of combined chemotherapy, patients will receive erlotinib for further treatment until progression disease. For the patients who have stable brain metastases, combined chemotherapy should begin after local treatment, such as whole brain radiotherapy or sterotactic radiosurgery. the main endpoint of this study is mean PFS, second endpoints of this study consist of mean OS, 8 week ORR.

Conditions

• Carcinoma, Non-Small Cell Lung
