Description
A randomized phase 3 trial involving 173 NSCLC patients with EGFR mutations (exon 19 deletion or L858R mutation in exon 21) with no history of chemotherapy for metastatic disease. Patients were randomly allocated (1:1) to receive either erlotinib or standard chemotherapy. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS). Median PFS was 9.7 months in the erlotinib group, compared with 5.2 months in the standard chemotherapy group.
