ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

Preclinical data suggest combining a mammalian target of rapamycin inhibitor with erlotinib could provide synergistic antitumor effects in advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). PATIENTS AND

METHODS:

In this multicenter, open-label, phase II study, patients with advanced NSCLC that progressed after one to two previous chemotherapy regimens were randomized 11 to erlotinib 150 mg/day±everolimus 5 mg/day. Primary end point was the disease control rate (DCR) at 3 months; secondary end points included progression-free survival (PFS) and safety.

RESULTS:

One hundred thirty-three patients received everolimus-erlotinib (n=66) or erlotinib alone (n=67). The DCR at 3 months was 39.4% and 28.4%, respectively. The probability for the difference in disease control at 3 months to be ≥15% was estimated to be 29.8%, which was below the prespecified probability threshold of ≥40%. Median PFS was 2.9 and 2.0 months, respectively. Grade 3/4 adverse events occurred in 72.7% and 32.3% of patients, respectively. Grade 3/4 stomatitis was observed in 31.8% of combination therapy recipients.

CONCLUSIONS:

Everolimus 5 mg/day plus erlotinib 150 mg/day was not considered sufficiently efficacious per the predefined study criteria. The combination does not warrant further investigation based on increased toxicity and the lack of substantial improvement in disease stabilization.
