| Brief Title : Celecoxib and Erlotinib in Treating Former Smokers With Stage IIIB or Stage IV Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer |
| Official Title : Phase I Study of Erlotinib and Celecoxib in Former Smokers With Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer |
| Brief Summary : RATIONALE: Celecoxib and erlotinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of celecoxib when given together with erlotinib in treating former smokers with stage IIIB, stage IV, recurrent, or progressive non-small cell lung cancer |
| Source : National Cancer Institute (NCI) |
| Detailed Description : OBJECTIVES: Primary - Determine the clinical toxicity and tolerability of celecoxib and erlotinib hydrochloride in former smokers with stage IIIB or IV or recurrent or progressive non-small cell lung cancer. Secondary - Determine the tumor response rate in patients treated with this regimen. - Determine the dose of celecoxib that results in maximal induction of apoptosis, maximal inhibition of prostaglandin E_2 (PGE_2) in bronchoalveolar fluid, and maximal inhibition of bronchial cell proliferation in patients treated with this regimen. OUTLINE: This is an open-label, dose-escalation study of celecoxib. Patients receive oral erlotinib hydrochloride once daily and oral celecoxib twice daily. Treatment continues in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Cohorts of 6 patients receive escalating doses of celecoxib until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity. Once the MTD is determined, up to 6 additional patients are treated at the MTD. Patients are followed at 4 weeks. PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 6-45 patients will be accrued for this study. |
