The objective of this study was to investigate the safety, tolerability and dose-related biologic effects of icotinib in patients with non-small cell lung cancer （NSCLC） in a Chinese patient population. Methods This was an open-label, phase I, dose escalation, safety/tolerability trial of oral icotinib （100 to 400 mg）, administered twice per day for 28-continuous-day cycles until disease progression or undue toxicity. Results Forty patients with stage IIIB （15%） or IV （85%） NSCLC were included in the study. They had mainly adenocarcinoma （85%）, with a performance status （PS） of 0 （45%） or 1 （55%） and less than half the patients （45%） had histories of smoking and all were pretreated by at least one regimen of chemotherapy. Patients were assigned to three dose levels of 150 mg b.i.d, 200 mg b.i.d, or 125 mg t.i.d. The follow-up periods ranged from 5 to 80 weeks. Adverse events were found in 35% patients, most of which were mild and reversible. The adverse events mainly occurred in the first 4 weeks and included rash （25%）, diarrhea, nausea and abdominal distention. One definite interstitial lung disease （ILD） was found in a patient in the dose of 200 mg b.i.d. According to an 8-week assessment, one （2.5%） patient receiving 150 mg gained complete response （CR） that persisted for 44 weeks, seven （17.50%） patients had partial remission （PR）, and 18 （45%） patients had stable disease （SD）. The objective response including CR＋PR was 20%. The median time of progression-free survival for the 40 patients was 20 weeks （range： 12 to 32 weeks）. The response was not affected by pathological type, history of smoking, or numbers of previous therapeutic regimens.展开更多

METHODS: This multi-centre, randomized, double-blind clinical trial consisted of 369 patients of either sex suf- fering from GERD. Patients were randomly assigned to receive either one tablet (20 mg) of S-pantoprazole once a day (test group) or 40 mg racemic pantoprazole once a day (reference group) for 28 d. Patients were evaluated for reduction in baseline on d 0, GERD symptom score on d 14 and 28, occurrence of any adverse effect during the course of therapy. Gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy was performed in 54 patients enrolled at one of the study centers at baseline and on d 28. RESULTS: Signifi cant reduction in the scores (mean and median) for heart burn (P < 0.0001), acid regurgitation (P < 0.0001), bloating (P < 0.0001), nausea (P < 0.0001) and dysphagia (P < 0.001) was achieved in both groups on d 14 with further reduction on continuing the therapy till 28 d. There was a statistically signifi cant difference in the proportion of patients showing improvement in acid regurgitation and bloating on d 14 and 28 (P = 0.004 for acid regurgitation; P = 0.03 for bloating) and heart burn on d 28 (P = 0.01) between the two groups, with a higher proportion in the test group than in the refer- ence group. Absolute risk reductions for heartburn/acid regurgitation/bloating were approximately 15% on d 14 and 10% on d 28. The relative risk reductions were 26%-33% on d 14 and 15% on d 28. GI endoscopy showed no signifi cant difference in healing of esophagitis (P = 1) and gastric erosions (P = 0.27) between the two groups. None of the patients in either group reported any adverse effect during the course of therapy.CONCLUSION: In GERD, S-pantoprazole (20 mg) is more effective than racemic pantoprazole (40 mg) in improving symptoms of heartburn, acid regurgitation, bloating and equally effective in healing esophagitis and gastric展开更多

The aim of this study was to evaluate the activity and safety of capecitabine combined with weekly docetaxel for the treatment of anthracycline-resistant metastatic breast cancer （MBC） in older Chinese patients. Methods MBC patients aged 〉65 years pretreated with 1-5 prior chemotherapy regimens, including an anthracycline, received oral capecitabine 825 mg/m^2 twice daily, days 1-14, plus docetaxel 30 mg/m^2 on days 1 and 8 every 21 days. All 41 enrolled patients received at least 1 dose of treatment and were evaluable for safety; 38 received at least 2 cycles （median 4, range 2-8） and were evaluable for efficacy. Results The overall objective response rate was 47%, including complete responses in 8% of patients. Median time to progression was 8.9 months. Median overall survival was 17.6 months. The most common side effects were haematological and gastrointestinal toxicities and hand-foot syndrome. The only grade 3/4 adverse events were neutropenia （12%）, alopecia （7%）, grade 3 nausea and vomiting （2%） and grade 3 nail toxicity （2%）. Conclusions Capecitabine 825 mg/m^2 twice daily plus weekly docetaxel is active with an acceptable safety profile in Chinese women 〉65 years with anthracycline-resistant MBC. Efficacy and tolerability compare favourably with previously reported trials evaluating higher capecitabine doses in combination with 3-weekly or weekly docetaxel.展开更多
