Trial Information

Carboplatin and Irinotecan Concomitantly With Radiation Therapy Followed by Consolidation Chemotherapy With Docetaxel for Locally Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (GIA 12177).


OBJECTIVES:

Primary

- Determine the objective response rate in patients with newly diagnosed stage IIIA or
IIIB non-small cell lung cancer treated with concurrent carboplatin, irinotecan
hydrochloride, and radiotherapy followed by consolidation docetaxel.

Secondary

- Evaluate the safety, toxicity, and complications of this regimen in these patients.

- Evaluate the median survival, 1-year and 2-year survival, and time to tumor progression
in these patients.

OUTLINE:

- Chemoradiotherapy: Patients receive carboplatin IV over 30 minutes followed by
irinotecan hydrochloride IV over 90 minutes on day 1. Patients also undergo
radiotherapy once daily on days 1-5. Treatment repeats weekly for up to 7 courses in
the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

- Consolidation chemotherapy: Beginning 3-4 weeks after completion of chemoradiotherapy,
patients receive docetaxel IV over 1 hour on day 1. Treatment repeats every 3 weeks for
up to 3 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed periodically for 4 years and then
annually thereafter.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 32 patients will be accrued for this study.
