Protocol

This section provides details of the study plan, including how the study is designed and what the study is measuring.
Design Details
131 patients to be enrolledTotal number of participants that the clinical trial aims to recruit.
Treatment Study
These studies test new ways to treat a disease, condition, or health issue. The goal is to see if a new drug, therapy, or approach works better or has fewer side effects than existing options.

How participants are assigned to different groups/arms
In this clinical study, participants are placed into groups randomly, like flipping a coin. This ensures that the study is fair and unbiased, making the results more reliable. By assigning participants by chance, researchers can better compare treatments without external influences.

Other Ways to Assign Participants
Non-randomized allocation: Participants are assigned based on specific factors, such as their medical condition or a doctor's decision.
None (Single-arm trial): If the study has only one group, all participants receive the same treatment, and no allocation is needed.

How treatments are given to participants
In this study, all participants receive the same treatment. This approach is often used to evaluate the effects of a single intervention without comparing it to another.

Other Ways to Assign Treatments
Parallel assignment: Participants are split into separate groups, each receiving a different treatment.
Cross-over assignment: Participants switch between treatments during the study.
Factorial assignment: Participants receive different combinations of treatments.
Sequential assignment: Participants receive treatments one after another in a specific order, possibly based on individual responses.
Other assignment: Treatment assignment does not follow a standard or predefined design.

How the effectiveness of the treatment is controlled
In a non placebo-controlled study, no participants receive an inert substance (placebo) to compare outcomes. Instead, all participants receive either the experimental treatment or an alternative treatment (often the Standard of Care). This method allows researchers to compare the effects of the experimental treatment with those of a different active intervention, rather than a placebo.

Other Options
Placebo-Controlled: A placebo is used to compare the effects of the experimental treatment with those of an inert substance, isolating the true treatment effect.

How the interventions assigned to participants is kept confidential
Everyone involved in the study knows which treatment is being given. This is typically used when it's not possible or necessary to hide the treatment details from participants or researchers.

Other Ways to Mask Information
Single-blind: Participants do not know which treatment they are receiving, but researchers do.
Double-blind: Neither participants nor researchers know which treatment is given.
Triple-blind: Participants, researchers, and outcome assessors do not know which treatment is given.
Quadruple-blind: Participants, researchers, outcome assessors, and care providers all do not know which treatment is given.

Criteria
14 inclusion criteria required to participate
Signed informed consent
Subjects must have histologically confirmed advanced (incurable stage IIIB or IV according to the International Staging System, \[Mountain, 1997\] Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) at primary diagnosis or relapsed after curative-intent surgery. Only patients with either (1) the histological subtypes of adenocarcinoma with BAC (Bronchioloalveolar) features or pure BAC (as defined by the 1999 World Health Organization criteria) or, (2) never smokers (i.e. smoked <100 cigarettes in lifetime) with any histology of NSCLC (squamous, adenocarcinoma, lifetime) with any histology of NSCLC (squamous, adenocarcinoma
Patients can have had a maximum of 1 prior systemic therapy (chemotherapy or biologic therapy) for NSCLC that ended at least 3 weeks prior to enrollment. Patients that have had adjuvant cytotoxic chemotherapy that ended at least 3 months prior to enrollment are eligible. Prior surgery and radiotherapy are permitted. Patients should recover from acute side effects of radiation before enrollment (3-4 weeks). Concurrent radiotherapy is prohibited
Archived tumor tissue available for evaluation of genetic and intra-tumoral protein or mRNA expression levels of relevant biomarkers. A minimum of 10 slides of archived tumor tissue is required; however, 15 slides should be sent, if available. For patients diagnosed on the basis of pleural effusions, efforts should be made to provide as many slides as possible made with cells obtained from pleural aspirates. Results of biomarkers will not be used to determine subject eligibility for the study

Show More Criteria

15 exclusion criteria prevent from participating
Malabsorption Syndrome, disease significantly affecting gastrointestinal function, or resection of the stomach or small bowel. Subjects with ulcerative colitis are also excluded
History of other malignancy. Subjects who have been disease-free for 5 years, or subjects with a history of completely resected non-melanoma skin cancer or successfully treated in situ carcinoma are eligible
Concurrent disease or condition that would make the subject inappropriate for study participation, or any serious medical disorder that would interfere with the subject's safety
Unresolved or unstable, serious toxicity from prior administration of another investigational drug

Study Objectives
One single intervention group 

is designated in this study

This study does not include a placebo group 

Treatment Groups
Group I
Randomized, open-label, parallel group, 2-stage study to evaluate and compare 2 dose schedules (1500 mg once daily and 500 mg twice daily) of oral lapatinib.
Study Objectives
Primary Objectives

Disease progression and tumor response (number of participants achieving a complete response \[CR\] or partial response \[PR\]), using standardized criteria (Response evaluation criteria in solid tumors). CR, disappearance of all target lesions; PR, 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; progressive disease, 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; stable disease, small changes that do not meet above criteria. Disease assessment was done at baseline and then every 8 weeks after starting treatment, until the participant discontinued treatment.
Secondary Objectives

Percentage of participants in the Targeted Population, at 4 months after starting study drug, who were alive and without disease progression.

Percentage of participants in the Non-Targeted Population, at 4 months after starting study drug, who were alive and without disease progression.

To further characterize the participant population, these biomarkers could be tested: serum levels of ErbB1 and ErbB2; intra-tumoral expression of ErbB1, ErbB2, etc.; mutations in ErbB1, ErbB2, and k-ras. Based on the interim analysis at the end of Stage 1, and predefined stopping rules for futility, further enrollment into the study was stopped due to lack of efficacy on both treatment arms; therefore, serum biomarkers were not analyzed.

To characterize the PK (absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion) of the study drug lapatinib in the participant population. PK is defined as the concentration of drug in a participant's blood at certain time points after the drug was taken by mouth. Based on the interim analysis at the end of Stage 1, and predefined stopping rules for futility, further enrollment into the study was stopped due to lack of efficacy on both treatment arms; therefore, pharmacokinetics were not analyzed.

To (1) investigate the relationship between genetic variants in specific genes and the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (pharmacokinetics) of lapatinib, and to (2) investigate the relationship between genetic variants in select genes in DNA and the response (safety, efficacy, and tolerability) to lapatinib. Based on the interim analysis at the end of Stage 1, and predefined stopping rules for futility, further enrollment into the study was stopped due to lack of efficacy on both treatment arms; therefore, pharmacogenetics were not analyzed.

Standard survey forms were completed by the participant at scheduled assessments to find out how the participant felt while on study. Based on the interim analysis at the end of Stage 1, and predefined stopping rules for futility, further enrollment into the study was stopped due to lack of efficacy on both treatment arms; therefore, quality of life was not analyzed.

Time from randomization until first documented evidence of partial or complete tumor response, measured using standard criteria (RECIST). Based on the interim analysis at the end of Stage 1, and predefined stopping rules for futility, further enrollment into the study was stopped due to lack of efficacy on both treatment arms; therefore, time to response was not analyzed.

For those participants who show a complete or partial response, duration of response would be time from first documented evidence of response (complete or partial response by RECIST) until disease progression or death, if sooner. Based on the interim analysis at the end of Stage 1, and predefined stopping rules for futility, further enrollment into the study was stopped due to lack of efficacy on both treatment arms; therefore, duration of response was not analyzed.

Time from randomization until the first documented sign of disease progression or death due to any cause, if sooner. Based on the interim analysis at the end of Stage 1, and predefined stopping rules for futility, further enrollment into the study was stopped due to lack of efficacy on both treatment arms; therefore, time to tumor progression was not analyzed.

Overall survival is measured as the time from randomization until death due to any cause. Based on the interim analysis at the end of Stage 1, and predefined stopping rules for futility, further enrollment into the study was stopped due to lack of efficacy on both treatment arms; therefore, overall survival was not analyzed.

Comparison of the specific cell type (histology) of non-small cell lung cancer from participant's tissue samples, as determined by local pathologist, to the type determined by an independent pathologist. Based on the interim analysis at the end of Stage 1, and predefined stopping rules for futility, further enrollment into the study was stopped due to lack of efficacy on both treatment arms; therefore, NSCLC histology was not analyzed.
