NCT00305942

Brief Summary

This proposed phase II trial will investigate the combination of topotecan/carboplatin in the first-line treatment of patients with extensive-stage SCLC. Topotecan/platinum regimens are emerging as common treatments for patients with extensive-stage disease. This trial will be one of the first clinical trials to evaluate a combination of weekly topotecan and carboplatin in the first-line treatment of extensive-stage SCLC.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Overall Response Rate (ORR), the Percentage of Patients Who Experience an Objective Benefit From Treatment

    Overall response rate is the percent of patients experiencing a complete or partial response by RECIST v. 1 Criteria. Overall response rate is the percentage of patients with complete response or partial response per RECIST v.1 Criteria. Complete response (CR) = Disappearance of all target lesions, disappearance of all nontarget lesions for at least 4 weeks. Partial Response (PR) = At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of longest diameters. The final response category assigned represented the best response obtained during treatment.

    18 months

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Time to Progression (TTP), the Length of Time, in Months, That Patients Were Alive From Their First Date of Protocol Treatment Until Worsening of Their Disease

    18 months

  • Overall Survival (OS), the Length of Time, in Months, That Patients Were Alive From Their First Date of Protocol Treatment Until Death

    18 months

  • Patients with small cell histology are eligible. Large neuroendocrine or mixed small cell and non-small cell histology are not eligible.
  • Patients must have measurable or evaluable disease.
  • ECOG performance status 0 or 1.
  • Patients must have adequate bone marrow, liver and kidney function
  • The patients may have had no previous chemotherapy.
  • Patients must be able to understand the nature of the study and give written informed consent.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients with limited stage disease. This includes IA, IB, IIA, IIB, and IIIA.

  • Uncontrolled hypertension, unstable angina, New York Heart Association grade II or greater CHF, serious cardiac arrhythmia requiring medication, or grade II or greater peripheral vascular disease.
  • Patients who have received other investigational drugs within 28 days.
  • Patients with CNS involvement (brain or meningeal). The single exception to this is the patient previously treated for brain metastases with radiation therapy, or surgical excision who has no evidence of active residual metastases on brain MRI at the time of study entry.
  • Patients with large neuroendocrine tumor or mixed small cell and non-small cell histology
