Dacomitinib is a second-generation, irreversible epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI). Pre-clinical data suggest that intermittent pulsatile dosing of dacomitinib may result in inhibition of EGFR T790M.
We evaluated safety, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of
OBJECTIVE
The primary objective of this study was to determine the rate of response to matuzumab in patients with recurrent, EGFR-positive ovarian, or primary peritoneal cancer. Secondary end points included safety and tolerability, time to tumor progression, duration of response, and overall
OBJECTIVE
Human epidermal growth factor receptor 3 (HER3) has been identified as an important component of many receptor tyrosine kinase-driven cancers. LJM716 is a human IgG monoclonal antibody that binds HER3, trapping it in an inactive conformation. In this study, a phase I dose escalation was
OBJECTIVE
Anti-epidermal growth factor receptor antibody therapy alone or in combination with irinotecan is recognized as a standard third-line treatment for KRAS wild-type unresectable metastatic colorectal cancer. However, in some cases, it is difficult to administer irinotecan after third-line
On September 27, 2006, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration granted approval to panitumumab (Vectibix, Amgen, Inc., Thousand Oaks, CA) for the treatment of patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-expressing, metastatic colorectal carcinoma with disease progression on or following
Lessons learned: Panitumumab monotherapy showed favorable efficacy and feasibility in the treatment of frail or elderly patients with RAS WT unresectable CRC. It is especially effective for left-sided tumors; therefore, panitumumab as
BACKGROUND
Cetuximab therapy has been effectively combined with cytotoxic chemotherapy in the first-, second-, and third-line treatment settings. In general, treatment with cetuximab is well tolerated, though it has been associated with the development of hypersensitivity reactions (HSRs). In the
BACKGROUND
Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) targeting the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) have been evaluated in patients with metastatic and advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The U.S. Food and Drug Administration initially granted accelerated approval to gefitinib but
BACKGROUND
Currently, the inhibitor of the epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase erlotinib is widely used for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer. Patients with a mutation or deletion in the epidermal growth factor receptor gene will benefit most and are likely to receive the drug
OBJECTIVE
The phase I study characterized the safety, pharmacokinetics, anti-tumor activity, and recommended phase II dose/schedule of LY3164530 in patients with advanced or metastatic cancer.
METHODS
Patients received LY3164530 on days 1 and 15 (Schedule 1: 300, 600, 1000, and 1250 mg) or Days 1,
BACKGROUND
We aimed to assess the effect of afatinib on overall survival of patients with EGFR mutation-positive lung adenocarcinoma through an analysis of data from two open-label, randomised, phase 3 trials.
METHODS
Previously untreated patients with EGFR mutation-positive stage IIIB or IV lung
