Study arms

  • Experimental
    Sequential icotinib plus chemotherapy

    Sequential icotinib plus chemotherapy : pemetrexed 500mg/m2 iv d1, cisplatin 75mg/m2 d1, icotinib 125 mg is administered orally three times per day d 8-21, every 3 weeks for a cycle. After receiving a maximum of 4 cycles treatment, non-progressive patients continue to receive icotinib as maintenance treatment until disease progression or intolerable toxicity.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Progression Free Survival

    A duration from randomization date to disease progression(as defined by RECIST) or death. If a participant are known to have progressed, the time to progression is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of progression. Otherwise, a participant will be censored at the last date they are known not to be progressed.

    Time frame: 15 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. Overall survival

    Overall Survival is assessed via calculation of the time to death due to any cause. If a participant is known to have died, the time to death is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of death. Otherwise, a participant will be censored at the last date they are known to be alive.

    Time frame: 24 months

  2. Objective response rate

    Number of subjects with confirmed objective response according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1.

    Time frame: 15 months

  3. Adverse events

    The number of patients who suffered adverse events, which is graded by NCI CTCAE version 4.0.

    Time frame: 24 months
