Pulmonart: Docetaxel - Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)

Brief Summary
Primary Objective:
- To evaluate the toxicity/safety profile of docetaxel/cisplatin induction therapy followed by concurrent chemoradiotherapy versus concurrent chemoradiotherapy followed by consolidation docetaxel/cisplatin in patients with locally advanced unresectable NSCLC (stage IIIA- multiple cN2 or IIIB). Secondary Objective:
- To estimate efficacy parameters in overall response rate, progression free survival and 1 year survival for each of the two above mentioned arms.

Interventions
docetaxel (75mg/m2, IV, Day 1) and cisplatin (40 mg/m2, IV, Day 1, 2) every 3 weeks for 2 cycles, followed by concurrent chemoradiotherapy with docetaxel (20 mg/m2, IV) and cisplatin (20 mg/m2) weekly for 6 weeks + radiotherapy 2 Gy/day, 5 days per week to a total dose of 66 Gy
docetaxel (20mg/m2, IV) and cisplatin (20 mg/m2) weekly for 6 weeks + radiotherapy 2 Gy/day, 5 days per week to a total dose of 66 Gy followed by docetaxel and cisplatin (40 mg/m2, IV, Day 1, 2) every 3 weeks for 2 cycles.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Histologically or cytologically confirmed NSCLC (adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, large cell carcinoma or a combination of these)
- Patients must have a locoregionally advanced unresectable NSCLC
- Stage IIIA with multiple level clinical N2 nodes (preferably with histological or cytological confirmation).
- Patients with peripheral tumours of the lower lobe with contralateral upper mediastinal nodes at station N2 are excluded
- Stage IIIB T4 or N3
- In the T4 category, patients with pleural or pericardial effusion and multiple nodules in the same lobe are excluded.
- Patients with T4 disease secondary to extensive and massive involvement of the great vessels are excluded.
- Patients should be excluded when the expected risk of pulmonary toxicity is likely to be high, e.g. V20 in excess of 35%.
- Life expectancy of at least 12 weeks.
- WHO performance status 0 or 1.
- Weight loss ≤ 10% within the last 3 months.
- Laboratory requirements at entry (within 7 days before randomization):
- Blood cell counts:
- Absolute neutrophils ≥ 2.0 x 10\^9/L
- Platelets ≥ 100 x 10\^9/L
- +13 more criteria
You may not qualify if:
- Diagnosis of small cell lung cancer
- Pregnant or lactating women
- Patients (male or female) with reproductive potential not implementing adequate contraceptive measures
- Prior systemic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or biological therapy including neoadjuvant or adjuvant treatment for NSCLC
- Prior surgery for NSCLC, if less than 5 years from study
- Prior radiotherapy for NSCLC
- History of prior malignancies, except for cured non-melanoma skin cancer, curatively treated in situ carcinoma of the cervix or other cancer curatively treated and with no evidence of disease for at least five years.
- Symptomatic peripheral neuropathy Grade ≥ 2 except if due to trauma.
- Other serious concomitant illness of medical conditions:
- Congestive heart failure or angina pectoris except if it is medically controlled. Previous history of myocardial infarction within 1 year from study entry, uncontrolled hypertension or arrhythmias.
- History of significant neurologic or psychiatric disorders including dementia or seizures.
- Active infection requiring IV antibiotics.
- Active ulcer, unstable diabetes mellitus or other contra-indication to corticosteroid therapy.
- Superior vena cava syndrome contra-indicating hydration.
- Preexisting pericardial effusion.
- +12 more criteria
