Evaluation of HER2 Mutations in Patient Tumors From E2598


OBJECTIVES:

- Correlate clinical response to trastuzumab (Herceptin®) with the presence of mutation
in the HER-2 kinase domain in tumor samples from patients with advanced non-small cell
lung cancer treated on protocol ECOG-2598.

- Correlate mutations with time to progression and survival of these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Tissue specimens are analyzed by polymerase chain reaction to assess mutations in the HER-2
gene. Laboratory/biomarker analysis data is correlated with clinical data from protocol
ECOG-2598.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 22-44 patients will be accrued for this study.
