A PHASE I/II DOSE ESCALATION STUDY USING THREE DIMENSIONAL CONFORMAL RADIATION THERAPY POST INDUCTION CHEMOTHERAPY IN PATIENTS WITH LOCALLY ADVANCED INOPERABLE, NON-SMALL CELL LUNG CANCER


OBJECTIVES: I. Assess the treatment related morbidity associated with escalating doses of
3-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT) in patients with locally advanced, inoperable,
non-small cell lung cancer. II. Determine the maximum tolerated dose of 3D-CRT in these
patients. III. Evaluate the morbidity associated with high dose 3D-CRT for carcinoma of the
lung.

OUTLINE: This is a dose escalation study. Patients are stratified by the percentage of total
lung volume (TLV) receiving greater than 20 Gy of radiation (less than 25% vs 25% to less
than 37% vs at least 37%). As of 7/1/1999, the third stratum closed to accrual. Patients
receive 3-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT) 5 days a week for either 6-7 weeks,
7-8 weeks, or 9-10 weeks (depending on the cohort). Within each TLV stratum, cohorts of
15-36 patients receive escalating doses of 3D-CRT until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is
determined. The MTD is defined as the dose at which less than 15% of patients experience
dose limiting toxicity. Patients are followed every 3 months for 1 year, every 4 months for
1 year, every 6 months for 3 years, and then annually thereafter.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 15-36 patients per cohort will be accrued for this study
within 1 year. As of 7/1/1999, the third stratum closed to accrual.
