A Phase II Study of Concurrent Pemetrexed and Radiation for Poor-Risk Stage III Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: Hoosier Oncology Group LUN08-129
OUTLINE: This is a multi-center study.
- Pemetrexed (Alimta) 500mg/m2 administered intravenously over approximately 10-minutes
on Day 1 of a 21-day cycle x 3 cycles
- Radiation will start between days -1 to 2 from day 1 of cycle 1. Day 1 radiotherapy
must be a Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday.
The planned radiation dose is 60 Gy in 2.0 Gy fractions. The entire PTV, including primary
tumor and areas of known nodal disease, shall receive 60 Gy at 2.0 Gy fractions, 5
fractions/week for 30 fractions over 6 weeks.
