Avastin and Tarceva for Locally Advanced or Metastatic Non-Squamous Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer
Primary Objectives: 1. (Phase I) To establish the maximum tolerated dose and dose-limiting toxicities of the combination of OSI-774 (Tarceva™) and rhuMAb VEGF (Avastin™) in patients with advanced Non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). 2. (Phase II) To assess response rate and tolerability of the regimen at the dose level established in the phase I portion of this study. Secondary Objectives: 1. (Phase I and II) To evaluate the pharmacokinetic interaction between the combination. 2. (Phase I) To establish a phase II regimen of the OSI-774/ rhuMAb VEGF combination, for further study alone or in combination with cytotoxic chemotherapy.

Who may be able to participate
The sponsor separates these requirements into two groups. You do not need to interpret them alone—use them to guide a conversation with the study team.
- Patient has histologically proven stage IIIB with pleural effusion, stage IV or recurrent non-squamous NSCLC.
- Patient has a Karnofsky performance status \>=70%.
- Patient has adequate bone marrow function: WBC \>= 3,000 cells/mm3, ANC \>= 1,500 cells/mm3, platelet count \>= 100,000 cells/mm3, Hgb \>= 9.0 g/dL.
- Patient has adequate liver function: total bilirubin level \<= 2.0 mg/dL, albumin \>= 2.5 g/dL.
- Transaminases (aspartate aminotransferase (AST or SGOT) and/or alanine aminotransferase (ALT or SGPT)) and alkaline phosphatase may be up to 2.5 x ULN.
- Patient has adequate renal function: a serum creatinine \< 2 mg/dl
- Patient has signed a written informed consent.
- Patient has received at least one prior chemotherapeutic regimen for recurrent or metastatic disease.
- Patient has not received prior chemotherapeutic regimens for advanced disease.
- Patient has received prior biologic therapy targeting epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and/or Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF).
- Patient has received radiation therapy within the past 3 weeks.
- Patient has signs or symptoms of acute infection requiring systemic therapy.
- Patient exhibits confusion, disorientation, or has a history of major psychiatric illness that may impair patient's understanding of the informed consent.
- Patient requires total parenteral nutrition with lipids.
- Patient has a history of uncontrolled heart disease and/or uncontrolled hypertension (\> 150/100 mmHg).
- Because of the possible teratogenic effect, pregnant women and women who are currently breast-feeding may not participate in this study. - All women of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test within 24 hours prior to enrolling in the study.
- Serious infection or other intercurrent illness requiring immediate therapy.
- Clinical/imaging evidence of Central Nervous System (CNS) malignancy or with recently treated CNS malignancy, as well as those experiencing recent cerebrovascular accident (CVA), or other CNS bleeding.
- Pediatric patients in whom open growth plates would be expected.
- Urine protein qualitative value of \> 30 in urinalysis or \> +1 in proteinuria testing by dipstick.
- Patient has a clinical history of coagulopathy or thrombosis.
- Patient is currently receiving or intending to receive anti-coagulants.
- Patient has had a recent myocardial infarction (still inside the healing period). Note: a six-month window is optimal.
- Patient is recovering from recent major surgery (e.g., less than 2 weeks since surgery) or is anticipating major surgery.
- Patient has a clinical history of hemoptysis or hematemesis.
- Patient may not have percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) or gastrostomy (G) tube.
