Study Evaluating EKB-569 in Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

• Status: Completed
• Trial end date: 2005-01-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

This non-randomized, open-label, outpatient clinical trial is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of daily orally administered EKB-569 in subjects with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. Patients must have been previously treated with a platinum- and docetaxel-based therapy either given concurrently or as separate regimens.

The primary objective of the study is to assess the clinical activity of EKB-569 administered orally as a second-line or later stage treatment in subjects with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. Secondary objectives include:

• To further evaluate the safety of EKB-569

• To explore additional clinical activity parameters

• To explore subject survival

• To evaluate the pharmacokinetics of EKB-569

• To assess subject reported outcomes

EKB-569 will be administered orally as a single-agent. Eligible subjects will take EKB-569 daily as long as they do not have progressive disease and are tolerating treatment.

• Phase: Phase 2
• Accepts Healthy Volunteers?: No
