A Randomized Phase II Study Preoperative Chemotherapy Versus Preoperative Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy for Patients With Locally Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer


Management of locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains a challenge. Both
local relapses and distant metastases are frequent, with 5-year survival of 3-17% for
inoperable disease. Staging has historically subdivided stage III disease into clinical
stage IIIA, thought to be potentially amenable to surgery, and stage IIIB, treated by defi
nitive radiotherapy or radiochemotherapy. This phase II trial is to compare neoadjuvant
chemotherapy with concurrent chemoradiotherapy in patients with locally advanced NSCLC to
address optimal induction strategy.


Inclusion Criteria:



- Histopathologic diagnosis of non small-cell lung cancer

- Clinical stage IIIA and/or IIIB without pleural effusion

- ECOG functional status 0 or 1

- No renal function alteration (GFR >50%)

- No hepatic function alteration (ALT and AST less than 2 times its normal value)

- Leucocytes more than 2,000/mcl

- Hemoglobin more than 10mg/dL

- Platelets more than 100,000/mcl

Exclusion Criteria:

- Active uncontrolled infection.

- Serious concomitant disorders that would compromise the safety of patient or
compromise the patient's ability to tolerate therapy.

- MI within preceding 6 months or symptomatic heart disease including unstable angina,
congestive heart failure, or uncontrolled arrhythmia.

- Significant neurological or mental disorder.

- Second primary malignancy.

- Pregnant or nursing.
