Phase II Trial Exploring the Feasibility of Adjuvant Carboplatin/Docetaxel in Curatively Resected Stage I-IIIA Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer


OBJECTIVES:

Primary

- Evaluate the feasibility of adjuvant carboplatin and docetaxel in patients with
resected stage I, II, or IIIA non-small cell lung cancer.

Secondary

- Determine the toxicity of this regimen in these patients.

- Determine the survival patterns of patients treated with this regimen.

- Assess the patterns of recurrence in patients treated with this regimen.

OUTLINE: Patients receive carboplatin IV on day 1 and docetaxel IV on day 1. Treatment
repeats every 3 weeks for 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable
toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed every 3 months for 2 years and
then every 6 months for 3 years.
