abstract = {The IRESSA Survival Evaluation in Lung Cancer (ISEL) phase
III study compared the efficacy of gefitinib (IRESSA) versus
placebo in patients with refractory advanced non-small cell
lung cancer (NSCLC). Although a statistically significant
difference in survival was not seen between gefitinib and
placebo in the overall ISEL population, preplanned subset
analyses demonstrated a significant survival benefit in
patients who had never smoked and in patients of Asian
origin.In ISEL, 1692 patients who were refractory to or
intolerant of their latest chemotherapy were randomized to
receive either gefitinib (250 mg/day) or placebo, plus best
supportive care. Preplanned subgroup analyses included an
assessment of patients who were of Asian origin (n =
342).Two hundred thirty-five patients of Asian origin
received gefitinib, and 107 received placebo. In these
patients, treatment with gefitinib significantly improved
survival compared with placebo (hazard ratio [HR], 0.66;
$95\%$ confidence interval [CI], 0.48, 0.91; p = 0.010;
median survival, 9.5 versus 5.5 months). Patients of Asian
origin also experienced statistically significant
improvements in time to treatment failure with gefitinib
compared with placebo (HR, 0.69; $95\%$ CI, 0.52, 0.91; p =
0.0084; 4.4 versus 2.2 months), and objective response rates
were higher with gefitinib than with placebo (12 versus
$2\%).$ Gefitinib was generally well tolerated in patients
of Asian origin, with rash and diarrhea being the most
common adverse events. No unexpected adverse events were
observed.Treatment with gefitinib was associated with a
significant improvement in survival in a subgroup of
patients of Asian origin with previously treated refractory
advanced NSCLC.},
