Phase 1/2 Study of Pemetrexed (Alimta) Plus Carboplatin, or Pemetrexed Plus Cisplatin With Concurrent Radiation Therapy Followed by Every-21-Day Pemetrexed Consolidation in Patients With Favorable-Prognosis Inoperable Stage IIIA/B Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)

Type of Study:

Interventional

Study Design:

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

Outcome Measure:

Phase 1 - Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of Carboplatin

Outcome Description:

MTD was defined as a dose at which the occurrence of at least 2 dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) was observed. DLT was defined as any of the following events occurring during the entire radiation therapy (RT) course, including a 2-week recovery period following completion of RT: Grade 4 neutropenia (<0.5 x 10^9 cells per liter) lasting >7 days, febrile neutropenia; ≥Grade 3 neutropenia with fever >38.5 degrees Celsius (°C), Grade 4 thrombocytopenia, Grade 3 thrombocytopenia with ≥Grade 2 bleeding, ≥Grade 3 nonhematologic toxicity (excluding nausea, vomiting, and transaminase elevations) and ≥Grade 3 pulmonary or esophageal toxicity (radiation-related pneumonitis or esophagitis).

Outcome Time Frame:

Phase 1 enrollment to the end of study treatment up to Week 11

Safety Issue:

Yes
