PFS is the time from randomisation until the date of objective disease progression as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumours (RECIST version 1.1) or death (by any cause in the absence of progression). Progression is defined using RECIST (v1.1), as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5mm.

PFS was defined as the interval from the date of randomization to the date of objective disease progression (as per RECIST) or the date of death (from any cause) in the absence of objective disease progression. The median PFS in months is presented here.
Assessment of the long-term safety profile of ZD1839 therapy by assessing the incidence of adverse events. Any adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) occurring during treatment and any SAEs occurring within 30 days after stopping the trial drug must be followed to resolution unless, in the investigator's opinion, the condition is unlikely to resolve because of the patient's underlying disease

To assess the efficacy of various sequences. CR (per RECIST 1.1 as assessed by the local/site Investigator) is defined as the disappearance of all target and non-target lesions. Confirmed complete response rate (CR rate) is defined as the number (%) of patients with a confirmed overall response of CR and was based on the evaluable analysis set.
Objective Response Rate is the sum of Complete response (CR) and Partial Response (PR) response. Evaluated by recist criteria v 1.1., for target lesions and assesed by CT or MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disapperance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR),\>=30% decrease in the sum of longest diamteter of target lesions; Objective response rate (RR)=CR+PR
Clinical benefit rate is the sum of patients with a best visit response of Complete Response, Partial Response or Stable Desease Objective Response Rate is the sum of Complete response (CR) and Partial Response (PR) response. Evaluated by recist criteria v 1.1., for target lesions and assesed by CT or MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disapperance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR),\>=30% decrease in the sum of longest diamteter of target lesions, Stable Desease (SD) defined as no progression for\>= 6 weeks. Objective response rate (RR)=CR+PR
Objective Response Rate (ORR) is defined as participants who had complete response (CR) or partial response(PR) divided by the total number of patients. RECIST criteria: CR = disappearance of all target lesions PR = 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions PD = 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions SD (stable disease) = small changes that do not meet above criteria
A patient demonstrated local disease control at 2 years if there was no evidence of failure of treatment. Failure was defined as the patient having objective disease progression (as per RECIST) inside the original irradiated area, at an isodose level (between 20% and 95%), or death.
Interval between date of randomization and earliest date of objective disease progression per RECIST criteria or death due to any cause in the absence of progression

Iressa (gefitinib) is an investigational small molecule being studied for the treatment of locally advanced prostate cancer. It is being evaluated in combination with Casodex in a clinical trial for this indication. The drug is not approved for this use and remains in clinical development.
Iressa targets the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). It is an EGFR inhibitor, meaning it blocks the activity of this receptor, which is involved in cell growth and survival. This mechanism is being explored in the context of locally advanced prostate cancer.
Iressa is developed by AstraZeneca PLC, a biopharmaceutical company listed on the stock exchange under the ticker AZN. AstraZeneca is conducting clinical research to evaluate the drug's potential in treating locally advanced prostate cancer.
Iressa is in Phase 2 clinical development for locally advanced prostate cancer. It is currently an investigational drug for this indication, meaning it has not yet received regulatory approval and is still being studied in clinical trials to assess its safety and efficacy.
Iressa is being studied in a Phase 2 clinical trial with the identifier NCT00319787, titled "Combination Casodex® and Iressa™ in Locally Advanced Prostate Cancer." This completed trial enrolled 102 male participants aged 18 years and older in Norway and was not controlled.
Yes, Iressa is the same as gefitinib. Gefitinib is the generic name for the drug, while Iressa is a brand name. Both names refer to the same EGFR inhibitor being studied for locally advanced prostate cancer.
