A Phase I Study Evaluating Bronchial Artery Infusion (BAI) of Gemcitabine in Recurrent or Progressive Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
OBJECTIVES:
Primary
- To establish the maximum tolerated dose of gemcitabine hydrochloride delivered via
bronchial artery infusion in patients with recurrent or progressive non-small cell lung
cancer.
Secondary
- To evaluate local response in patients treated with this therapy.
- To characterize the pharmacokinetics of gemcitabine hydrochloride in patients treated
with this therapy.
OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of gemcitabine hydrochloride delivered via
bronchial artery infusion.
Patients receive gemcitabine hydrochloride via bronchial artery infusion over 30-60 minutes
on day 1 and via IV infusion over 30 minutes on day 8 of course 1. Patients then receive
gemcitabine hydrochloride IV over 30 minutes on days 1 and 8 of all subsequent courses.
Treatment repeats every 21 days in the absence of disease progression and unacceptable
toxicity.
After completion of study therapy, patients are followed every 8 weeks to 3 months for up to
2 years.
