Official title
A Randomized, Double Blind, Phase III Comparative Trial of 2 Doses of ZD1839 (IRESSA) in Combination With Gemcitabine and Cisplatin Versus Placebo in Combination With Gemcitabine and Cisplatin in Chemotherapy Naive Patients With Advanced (Stage III or IV) Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
RATIONALE: Some tumors need growth factors produced by the body's white blood cells to keep growing. ZD 1839 may interfere with the growth factor and stop the tumor from growing. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. It is not yet known whether chemotherapy is more effective with or without ZD 1839 for non-small cell lung cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy with or without ZD 1839 in treating patients who have stage IIIB or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer.
