Anticancer Res. 2016 Jun;36(6):2881-7 Authors: Yamada K, Azuma K, Takeshita M, Uchino J, Nishida C, Suetsugu T, Kondo A, Harada T, Eida H, Kishimoto J, Eriguchi G, Takayama K, Nakanishi Y, Sugio K Abstract BACKGROUND: As the incidence of lung cancer in the elderly is increasing worldwide, there exists a need to develop a clinically effective, less toxic therapy for this patient population. Although erlotinib has shown proven effectiveness against non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), few studies have prospectively investigated its application to elderly patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients aged ≥75 years with advanced or recurrent NSCLC including wild-type EGFR who had previously received one or two chemotherapy regimens were enrolled in this trial. Erlotinib was initially administered at a dose of 150 mg/day orally until disease progression or unacceptable toxicities occurred. The primary endpoint was the objective response rate. RESULTS: Forty patients were enrolled between May 2009 and January 2014. An objective response was observed in 8 patients (20%, 95%CI=9.1-35.7%), and the disease control rate reached 62.5% (95%CI=45.8-77.3%). After a median follow-up period of 12.2 months (range=1.4-47.2 months), the median progression-free survival period was 5.0 months (95%CI=2.3-7.6 months), and the median survival period was 12.2 months (95%CI=6.1-24.7 months). Major toxicities were skin disorders, fatigue, and anorexia. Most adverse events were grade 2 or less, but 13 patients (32.5%) required a dose reduction. Two patients developed interstitial lung disease, that was nevertheless reversible, and there were no treatment-related deaths. CONCLUSION: Although the percentage of patients requiring dose reduction seemed relatively higher than that in previous studies, erlotinib is a potentially useful therapeutic option for unselected elderly patients with previously treated advanced or recurrent NSCLC, as has been also shown for younger patients.
