A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Phase II Clinical Trial of Combination Erlotinib (Tarceva) and Celecoxib (Celebrex) Versus Erlotinib (Tarceva)/Placebo in Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating erlotinib hydrochloride, celecoxib, and 7 other interventions for Recurrent Non-small Cell Lung Cancer and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 107 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
RATIONALE: Erlotinib hydrochloride and celecoxib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Celecoxib may also stop the growth of lung cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving erlotinib hydrochloride together with celecoxib may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying how well giving erlotinib hydrochloride together with celecoxib works compared with erlotinib hydrochloride alone in treating patients with stage IIIB-IV non-small cell lung cancer.
