A review of Tarceva® and a proposal for anInvestigative Drugthird line monotherapy, for patients with advanced NSCLC
Presentation preview ,[object Object]
Patients who live beyond the first stages of the disease have few therapeutic options
Many available therapeutic options are toxic intravenous therapies
Tarceva® is an oral monotherapeutic option for second and third stage NSCLC
Our investigative therapy is also a monotherapy drug for third stage NSCLC,[object Object]

Types of lung cancer The two main types of lung cancer are: Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC) about 10% of all lung cancer patients are of these type Non Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) about 80-90% of all lung cancer patients are of these type 	Other types of tumors include Lung Carcinoid Tumors, whichare slow growing and can be cured by surgery. http://www.cancer.org/docroot/CRI/content/CRI_2_2_1x_What_Is_Non-small_Cell_Lung_Cancer.asp?sitearea=
Types of Non Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) The 3 sub-types of NSCLC differ in size, shape, and chemical composition. Adenocarcinoma:   About 40% of lung cancers.  Usually found in the outer part of the lung Squamous cell carcinoma:  About 25% to 30% of all lung cancers are this kind.  Usually develops in the middle of the lungs, near a bronchus. Large-cell (undifferentiated) carcinoma:  About 10% to 15% of lung cancers are this type.  It can develop in any part of the lung. http://www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/pdq/treatment/non-small-cell-lung/patient
Symptoms of NSCLC Persistent cough Trouble breathing Chest discomfort Wheezing Streaks of blood in sputum Hoarseness Loss of appetite Inexplicable weight loss Fatigue http://www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/pdq/treatment/non-small-cell-lung/patient
How is NSCLC diagnosed? Physical exams Laboratory tests Chest x-ray CT scan PET scan Sputum Cytology Fine-needle Aspiration (FNA) http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/279960-diagnosis
Stages of NSCLC Based on severity of Lung Cancer, it is assigned by different stages. Staging will help determine whether cancer has spread within lungs or in the other parts of the body. Stage 0  http://www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/pdq/treatment/non-small-cell-lung/Patient/page4

Increase in dosage not permitted
Treatment continued until progression of disease or intolerable toxicityhttp://www.accessdata.fda.gov/drugsatfda_docs/nda/2004/21-743_Tarceva_StatR.PDF
The objective endpoint of the study was to compare the Overall Survival (OS) between the two study arm (Tarceva® vs. Placebo) Secondary endpoints included: Progression-free-survival (PFS) Response Rate Response Duration Quality of life (QoL)  OS was BR.21 trial primary endpoint http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/drugsatfda_docs/nda/2004/21-743_Tarceva_StatR.PDF
Tarceva® reduced the risk of death by 27% Efficacy was evaluated by: Periodic assessments of survival and quality of life (QoL) scores Tumor measurement evaluated every 8 weeks  Safety assessed in every 4 weeks http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/drugsatfda_docs/nda/2004/21-743_Tarceva_StatR.PDF

Tarceva® response rate on patients with positive EGFR Evaluation of positive epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) (defined as 10% of cells sustaining for EGFR) and negative EGFR Status was determined in 33% patients (238) Tarceva® response rate on positive EGFR was 12% and 3% on negative EGFR http://www.egfr.org/  http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/drugsatfda_docs/nda/2004/21-743_Tarceva_admincorres.PDF
Saturn Study evaluated the effect of EGFR protein and clinical outcome A post marketing Phase III study to evaluate the relationship between EGFR protein expression and clinical outcome: Compared Tarceva® and Placebo as maintenance treatment of patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC following 4 cycles of platinum based chemotherapy 889 patients enrolled in a global, multicenter, randomized, double blinded, placebo-controlled study  http://www.fda.gov/downloads/AdvisoryCommittees/CommitteesMeetingMaterials/Drugs/OncologicDrugsAdvisoryCommittee/UCM193921.pdf
Saturn divided into 2 study periods The chemotherapy run period Patients received first line platinum based doublet chemotherapy The study period  Patients received blinded Tarceva® or Placebo 438 patients received Tarceva ™ 451 patients received a placebo http://www.fda.gov/downloads/AdvisoryCommittees/CommitteesMeetingMaterials/Drugs/OncologicDrugsAdvisoryCommittee/UCM193921.pdf

  • 9. Types of lung cancer The two main types of lung cancer are: Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC) about 10% of all lung cancer patients are of these type Non Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) about 80-90% of all lung cancer patients are of these type Other types of tumors include Lung Carcinoid Tumors, whichare slow growing and can be cured by surgery. http://www.cancer.org/docroot/CRI/content/CRI_2_2_1x_What_Is_Non-small_Cell_Lung_Cancer.asp?sitearea=
  • 10. Types of Non Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) The 3 sub-types of NSCLC differ in size, shape, and chemical composition. Adenocarcinoma:  About 40% of lung cancers. Usually found in the outer part of the lung Squamous cell carcinoma:  About 25% to 30% of all lung cancers are this kind. Usually develops in the middle of the lungs, near a bronchus. Large-cell (undifferentiated) carcinoma:  About 10% to 15% of lung cancers are this type. It can develop in any part of the lung. http://www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/pdq/treatment/non-small-cell-lung/patient

  • 91. Hazard Ratio How often a particular event happens in one group compare to how often it happens in another group, over time. In cancer clinical trials it measures survival at any point in a group of patients who have been given a specific treatment compared to a control group given another treatment or a placebo. A hazard ratio of one means that there is no difference in survival between the two groups. A hazard ratio of greater than one or less means that survival was better in one of the groups. http://www.cancer.gov/Templates/db_alpha.aspx?CdrID=618612
