Phase II Study of Weekly Docetaxel Together With Weekly Cisplatin in Chemotherapy-Naive Patients With Stage IV or Select Stage IIIB (Malignant Effusion) Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
OBJECTIVES:
Primary
- Determine the antitumor activity of docetaxel and cisplatin, as measured by tumor
response rate, in patients with chemotherapy-naïve stage IIIB or IV non-small cell lung
cancer.
Secondary
- Determine the duration of response in patients treated with this regimen.
- Determine time to disease progression in patients treated with this regimen.
- Determine the 1-year survival rate in patients treated with this regimen.
- Determine the median survival time in patients treated with this regimen.
- Correlate aneuploidy (as determined by DNA histograms) and immunohistochemical
expression of stathmin, Aurora-A, and survivin with response in patients treated with
this regimen.
OUTLINE: This is an open-label, nonrandomized, multicenter study.
Patients receive docetaxel IV over 1 hour and cisplatin IV over 1 hour once on days 1, 8,
and 15. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 6 courses in the absence of disease
progression or unacceptable toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed every 6 months.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 76 patients will be accrued for this study within 13-19
months.
