Gemcitabine Plus Carboplatin or Cisplatin in Treating Patients With Stage IIIB, Stage IV, or Recurrent Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
A Phase 2 study testing carboplatin, cisplatin and gemcitabine hydrochloride in people with Lung Cancer, run by Herbert Irving Comprehensive Cancer Center.
Trial summary
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 compare the effectiveness of gemcitabine plus carboplatin with that of gemcitabine plus cisplatin in… Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: A Randomized Phase II Trial of Cisplatin or Carboplatin With Gemcitabine in Patients With 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 compare the effectiveness of gemcitabine plus carboplatin with that of gemcitabine plus cisplatin in treating patients who have stage IIIB, stage IV, or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer.
Read the detailed description
OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the response rates of gemcitabine and carboplatin vs gemcitabine and cisplatin in patients with stage IIIB, IV, or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer. II. Determine the toxicity of these two regimens in this patient population. III. Determine the time to progression and one year survival of these patients on these regimens.
OUTLINE: This is a randomized study. Patients are stratified by stage of disease and gender. Patients are randomized to one of two treatment arms. Arm I: Patients receive gemcitabine IV over 30 minutes on days 1 and 8, followed by carboplatin over 60 minutes on day 1. Arm II: Patients receive gemcitabine IV over 30 minutes on days 1 and 8, followed by cisplatin IV over 60 minutes on day 1. Treatment repeats every 3 weeks for up to 8 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients are followed monthly for 3 months, every two months for 6 months, and then every 3 months thereafter.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 80 patients (40 per treatment arm) will be accrued for this study within 1 year.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing carboplatin, cisplatin and gemcitabine hydrochloride in people with Lung Cancer, run by Herbert Irving Comprehensive Cancer Center.
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 4 Feb 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
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?
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 4 Feb 2013.
