Topic

Lung cancer (non-small-cell, advanced, relapsed/refractory) - sorafenib [ID522]

Consultation on suggested remit, draft scope and provisional matrix of

21 March 2012- 20 April 2012

Scoping workshop

The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) has been invited to carry out an appraisal of sorafenib for the third or fourth line treatment of advanced, non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer. We have recently invited stakeholders to respond to a written consultation on the draft scope and to attend a scoping workshop for this proposed appraisal.

The manufacturer of sorafenib has advised us that the pivotal trial for sorafenib in the third or fourth line treatment of advanced, non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer failed to meet it's primary endpoint so they are not currently pursuing a licence in the UK for this product.

In light of this information the Institute will not be progressing with the scoping exercise. Consequently the scoping workshop arranged for Tuesday 22 May 2012 was cancelled. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
