Time frame
From step 1 randomization (gemcitabine vs. gemcitabine/erlotinib) to death or last follow-up. Maximum follow-up at the time of the phase II analysis was 6.2 years.

What was measured

Overall survival is estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. Survival time is measured from step 1 randomization to date of death from any cause or last known follow-up (censored). Analysis was to occur after 200 deaths were reported.

Analysis population: Eligible participants randomized at step 1.

Groups in this outcome

Arm I (Gemcitabine Hydrochloride or Combination Chemotherapy)

Patients receive either gemcitabine hydrochloride or \[starting 6-28-2016\] allowable combination chemotherapy per standard of care for 5 months. Patients undergo CT, MRI, and/or x-ray imaging throughout the trial. Patients also undergo blood sample collection during screening and follow-up and undergo tissue sample collection at baseline.

Arm II (Gemcitabine Hydrochloride, Erlotinib Hydrochloride)

\[Closed to accrual 2-28-14.\] Patients receive gemcitabine hydrochloride IV over 30 minutes once a week for 3 weeks then off 1 week and erlotinib hydrochloride PO once daily on days 1-28. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 5 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo CT, MRI, and/or x-ray imaging throughout the trial. Patients also undergo blood sample collection during screening and follow-up and undergo tissue sample collection at baseline.
