摘要: In the planned interim analysis of data for first 200 patients, progression-free survival was significantly longer in gefitinib group than standard-chemotherapy (hazard ratio death or disease progression with gefitinib, 0.36; P<0.001), resulting early termination study. The had a median (10.8 months, vs. 5.4 months chemotherapy group; hazard ratio, 0.30; 95% confidence interval, 0.22 to 0.41; as well higher response rate (73.7% 30.7%, P<0.001). overall 30.5 and 23.6 (P = 0.31). most common adverse events were rash (71.1%) elevated amino transferase levels (55.3%), group, neutropenia (77.0%), anemia (64.6%), appetite loss (56.6%), sensory neuropathy (54.9%). One patient receiving died from interstitial lung disease. CONCLUSIONS First-line patients advanced non–small-cell cancer who selected on basis EGFR mutations improved survival, acceptable toxicity, compared standard chemotherapy.
