  Purpose

Primary Objectives:

  1. (Phase I) To establish the maximum tolerated dose and dose-limiting toxicities of the combination of OSI-774 (Tarceva™) and rhuMAb VEGF (Avastin™) in patients with advanced NSCLC.
  2. (Phase II) To assess response rate and tolerability of the regimen at the dose level established in the phase I portion of this study.

Secondary Objectives:

  1. (Phase I and II) To evaluate the pharmacokinetic interaction between the combination.
  2. (Phase I) To establish a phase II regimen of the OSI-774/ rhuMAb VEGF combination, for further study alone or in combination with cytotoxic chemotherapy.

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of Tarceva in combination with Avastin [ Time Frame: After each 21 day cycle ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Response in Patients With NSCLC Receiving Combination Avastin and Tarceva [ Time Frame: 6 weeks (2 cycles) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Enrollment: 41
Study Start Date: August 2002
Study Completion Date: May 2006
Primary Completion Date: May 2006 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Arms Assigned Interventions
Avastin + Tarceva: Experimental
Combination Therapy (Avastin + Tarceva) = Avastin IV Day 1 of each 21-day cycle + oral Tarceva daily.
Drug: Avastin
7.5 mg/kg By Vein on Day 1 of Every 21 Day Cycle
Drug: Tarceva
100 mg By Mouth Daily for 3 Weeks

Detailed Description:

Patients will be treated with oral Tarceva daily for 21 days each cycle. Patients will receive Avastin by IV on day 1 of each 21-day cycle. If a patient has no grade 3 or 4 toxicities after the 1st cycle, then the patient may continue the same doses of Tarceva and Avastin for another cycle. If the patient has response or stable disease after 6 weeks (2 cycles), the patient may continue on the same doses of Tarceva and Avastin. A patient may receive treatment on this study for up to one year, unless his or her disease progresses or side effects become too severe.

The starting dose is 100 mg daily of Tarceva and 7.5 mg/kg every 21 days of Avastin.

Accepts Healthy Volunteers:   No
Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patient has histologically proven stage IIIB with pleural effusion, stage IV or recurrent non-squamous NSCLC.
  • Patient has a Karnofsky performance status >=70%.
  • Patient has adequate bone marrow function: WBC >= 3,000 cells/mm3, ANC >= 1,500 cells/mm3, platelet count >= 100,000 cells/mm3, Hgb >= 9.0 g/dL.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patient has not received prior chemotherapeutic regimens for advanced disease.
  • Patient has received prior biologic therapy targeting EGFR and/or VEGF.
  • Patient has received radiation therapy within the past 3 weeks.
  • Patient has signs or symptoms of acute infection requiring systemic therapy.
  • Patient exhibits confusion, disorientation, or has a history of major psychiatric illness that may impair patient's understanding of the informed consent.
  • Patient requires total parenteral nutrition with lipids.
  • Patient has a history of uncontrolled heart disease and/or uncontrolled hypertension (> 150/100 mmHg).
