About this study
Official title: Randomized Phase II Trial of Carboplatin/Gemcitabine Followed By Paclitaxel or Cisplatin/Vinorelbine Followed by Docetaxel in Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells.
PURPOSE: Randomized phase II trial to study the effectiveness of two different combination chemotherapy regimens in treating patients who have stage IIIB or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer
Read the detailed description
OBJECTIVES: I. Assess the survival and failure free survival of patients with advanced primary non-small cell lung cancer treated with carboplatin and gemcitabine followed by paclitaxel OR cisplatin and vinorelbine followed by docetaxel. II. Evaluate the response (confirmed plus unconfirmed) and toxicities associated with these two regimens in these patients.
OUTLINE: This is a randomized study. Patients are randomized to one of two treatment arms. Arm I: Patients receive carboplatin IV over 30 minutes on day 1 followed by gemcitabine IV over 30 minutes on days 1 and 8. Treatment repeats every 21 days for 3 courses. Following the 3 courses of carboplatin and gemcitabine, patients receive paclitaxel IV over 3 hours on day 1 every 21 days for 3 courses. Arm II: Patients receive cisplatin IV over 30-60 minutes on day 1 followed by vinorelbine IV over 6-10 minutes on days 1 and 8. Treatment repeats every 21 days for 3 courses. Following the 3 courses of cisplatin and vinorelbine, patients receive docetaxel IV over 1 hour on day 1 every 21 days for 3 courses. Patients receive no further treatment until evidence of disease progression. Patients are followed every 2 months for the first year, every 6 months for years 2 and 3, and annually thereafter.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 160 patients will be accrued for this study.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing carboplatin, cisplatin and docetaxel in people with Lung Cancer, run by SWOG Cancer Research Network at 84 sites in United States.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Oct 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 84 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00003587, which also lists 3 linked publications.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Oct 2012.
