Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: icotinib plus gemcitabine

Three dose of icotinib are designed to be evaluated, 125 mg three times per day, 250 mg three times per day, and 375 mg three times per day. Dose escalations are based on predefined dose escalation decision rules. The Maximum Administered Dose (MAD) was reached at the dose level when at least 30% patients developed a dose limited toxicity. Gemcitabine: 1000 mg/m2 on Days 1, 8, and 15 of a 28 day cycle by IV administration every 4 weeks.
