Trial Information

A Phase III Trial of Cisplatin/Etoposide/Radiotherapy With or Without Consolidation Docetaxel in Patients With Inoperable Locally Advanced Stage III Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC): Hoosier Oncology Group LUN01-24


OUTLINE: This is a multi-center study.

- Cisplatin 50 mg/m2 d1, 8, 29, 36

- Etoposide 50 mg/m2/day d1-5, 29-33

- Radiation 5940 cGy (180 cGy/day)

Patients with CR, PR, SD Randomized to either:Docetaxel75 mg/m2 q3wk X 3 cycles

or Observation Only

Performance Status: ECOG 0 or 1

Life Expectancy: Not specified

Hematopoietic:

- ANC > 1,500/mm3

- Platelet count > 100,000/mm3

- Hemoglobin > 8 g/dl. PRBC transfusions will be allowed to increase hemoglobin to >8
g/dl

Hepatic:

- Serum bilirubin < institutional upper limit of normal (ULN)

- AST < 2.5 X the upper limits of normal if alkaline phosphatase is < ULN, or alkaline
phosphatase may be up to 4 X ULN if AST are < ULN

Renal:

- Serum creatinine of < 2 mg/dl or calculated creatinine clearance > 50 cc/min

Cardiovascular:

- No clinically significant history of cardiac disease, (i.e. uncontrolled hypertension,
unstable angina, congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction within the past year,
or cardiac ventricular arrhythmias requiring medication).

Pulmonary:

- Pre-registration FEV1 > 1 liters by spirometry within 42 days prior to study treatment.


Inclusion Criteria:



- Histologic or cytologic evidence of NSCLCUnresectable Stage IIIA (N2) OR Stage IIIB
NSCLC.

- Unresectable Stage IIIA will be defined by the following criteria:

- N2 mediastinal lymph nodes must be multiple and/or bulky on CT scan such that in the
opinion of the treating investigator, the patient is not a candidate for surgical
resection

- N2 disease must be documented by biopsy, FDG-PET scan imaging, or by CT if nodes are
> 2 cm on CT scan

- Stage IIIb patients must have N3 or T4 status. N3 status must be documented by one
of the following criteria:

- Contralateral (to the primary tumor) mediastinal lymph node, supraclavicular or
scalene lymph nodes proven by biopsy, FDG-PET scan imaging, or by CT if nodes are > 2
cm on CT scan.

- Patients with positive supraclavicular or scalene lymph nodes must not have disease
extending up into the cervical region.

- All patients must have measurable or evaluable disease documented by CT, MRI, X-ray
or physical exam within 28 days prior to study treatment.

- Negative pregnancy test

Eligibility for Consolidation Therapy

- Following completion of induction chemoradiotherapy patients without local
progression of disease or distant metastases will then be randomized to receive
consolidation therapy with docetaxel or observation. Patients will be stratified and
randomized based on stage IIIa vs IIIb disease at baseline, CR vs. non-CR following
induction chemoradiation, and ECOG PS 0 or 1 vs. 2.

- Patients must have completed chemoradiotherapy per protocol and at least 4 weeks but
no more than 8 weeks must have elapsed from the last day of induction therapy (the
last day of radiation) to be eligible for randomization to consolidation with
docetaxel or observation.

- Patients must have undergone re-staging tests according to the study calendar and
determined to have no evidence of disease progression to be eligible for
randomization to consolidation with docetaxel or observation.

- Patients must have an ANC > 1,500/mm3, platelet count > 100,000/ mm3, and hemoglobin
> 8 g/dl obtained within 14 days prior to registration for randomization to
consolidation with docetaxel or observation.

- Patients must have adequate hepatic function as defined by a serum bilirubin <
institutional upper limit of normal (ULN) and an AST and/or ALT < 2.5 X the upper
limits of normal if alkaline phosphatase is < ULN, or alkaline phosphatase may be up
to 4 X ULN if transaminases are < ULN within 14 days prior to registration for
randomization to consolidation with docetaxel or observation.

Exclusion Criteria:

- No prior chemotherapy or radiotherapy for lung cancer.

- No unintended weight loss > 5% body weight in the preceding 3 months prior to study
treatment will not be eligible for this trial.

- No symptomatic peripheral neuropathy prior to entry onto the study. Peripheral
neuropathy must be < Grade 1 to be eligible.

- No prior malignancy except for adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell skin
cancer, in situ cervical cancer, or other cancer for which the patient has been
disease-free for 5 years.

- No history of allergic reactions to drugs utilizing the vehicle polysorbate 80
(docetaxel) and polysorbate 80 + polyethylene glycol (etoposide).

- If the patient has hearing loss at pre-study, performance of an audiogram is
recommended (not mandatory) to document baseline hearing status in the event of
possible further hearing loss due to cisplatin administration.

- No current breastfeeding

Type of Study:

Interventional

Study Design:

Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment

Outcome Measure:

To assess whether consolidation therapy with docetaxel as compared with observation following cisplatin/etoposide/radiotherapy improves overall survival for patients with unresectable stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Outcome Time Frame:

36 months

Safety Issue:

No
