Treatment and study plan

Comparator: erlotinib + dalotuzumab

Drug

Part II: All patients will receive 1 week of erlotinib 150 mg tablets per day.

Arm 1: Patients who experience a PET response will continue on erlotinib monotherapy until disease progression.

Arm 2: Patients who fail to receive a PET response will continue to take erlotinib in combination with dalotuzumab 10 mg/kg IV infusion once weekly. At the time of disease progression, patients on erlotinib monotherapy will be offered to crossover to dalotuzumab 10 mg/kg IV infusion once weekly in combination with erlotinib.

Other names: TARCEVA®

Comparator: erlotinib monotherapy

Drug

Part I: All patients will receive erlotinib 150 mg tablets per day until disease progression.

Other names: TARCEVA®

Primary outcomes

  1. Validate imaging platform and molecular markers

    Time frame: FDG response at Weeks 1 and 3 following chemotherapy

Secondary outcomes

  1. Progression-free survival, overall survival

    Time frame: 3 months
