Title

Erlotinib Versus Vinorelbine/Cisplatin as Adjuvant Treatment in Stage IIIA NSCLC Patients With EGFR Mutations

The purpose of this study is to assess the effect and safety of erlotinib versus NVB plus cisplatin (NP) as adjuvant treatment in patients with stage IIIA NSCLC after complete resection with EGFR activating mutations and to explore a new treatment strategy for this subset.
The LACE meta-analysis identified four cycles of platinum-based program to improve II~IIIA stage completely resected NSCLC pts the role of 5-year survival, but its treatment-related life threatening toxicity limits its use. The EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) may provide a dramatic response in pts with pulmonary adenocarcinoma carrying EGFR activating mutations in the metastatic setting. The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of erlotinib versus NVB plus cisplatin (NP) as adjuvant treatment in pts with stage IIIA NSCLC after Complete Resection with EGFR activating mutations and to explore a new treatment strategy for this subset.

Estimate

Drug Erlotinib

In the adjuvant treatment phase, erlotinib 150 mg/day taken orally for 2 years or till disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

  • Other names: tarceva

Drug vinorelbine/cisplatin

In the adjuvant treatment phase, patient will receive vinorelbine 25mg/m2 IV on day 1 and day 8, and cisplatin 25mg/m2 on day 1 and day 2 and day 3, of a 3-week schedule for 4 cycles or till disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

  • Other names: NP, NVB/cisplatin

Erlotinib arm Experimental
