Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Overall Response Rate

    Radiological imaging should be performed every 12 weeks, to ascertain the overall (or objective) response rate (Complete Response or Partial Response) according to the RECIST guidelines. Complete Response (CR) - Disappearance of all target lesions. Partial Response (PR) - at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum longest diameter. Overall Response Rate = CR+PR.

    12 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • 1-year Overall Survival (OS)

    every 12 weeks for 1 year

  • Progression Free Survival (PFS)

    Through the end of the study, an average of approximately 8 months

  • Number of Individuals With Adverse Events

    10 weeks

Study Arms (2)

Arm A

EXPERIMENTAL

Carboplatin + Abraxane (240mg/m2) on Day 1 of a 21 Day cycle, up to 6 cycles

Drug: CarboplatinDrug: Abraxane

Arm B

EXPERIMENTAL

Carboplatin + Abraxane (80mg/m2)given on Days 1, 8 and 15 of a 21 Day Cycle, up to 6 cycles

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Histological or cytological diagnosis of extensive stage small-cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC),\* including malignant pleural effusion
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) 0-2
  • No prior systemic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or biological therapy for SCLC
  • Measurable disease as defined by the RECIST criteria
  • Adequate organ function as defined by the protocol
  • Female patients of child bearing potential (CBP) must agree to use of reliable method of birth control during and for 3 months following treatment
  • Patients must sign informed consent document
  • Patients must be ≥ 18 years of age
  • Patients with brain metastases that have been adequately treated and are determined to be controlled by the attending physician are eligible
  • Patients who have had prior malignancies are eligible if they are ≥ 5 years from diagnosis free of disease or the attending physician believes the patient's prognosis is best defined by the ES-SCLC (if questions concerning this eligibility criteria arise, please contact the principal investigator)
  • (\*)ES-SCLC defined as metastases outside the chest, pulmonary metastases, or contralateral metastases (supraclavicular or hilar) nodes that could not be included with a reasonable single radiation port. Patients with malignant pleural effusions are considered extensive stage.

You may not qualify if:

  • Received treatment within the last 30 days with a drug that has not received Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for any indication at the time of study entry
  • Pregnancy or breast feeding
  • Serious active infection that would require a prolonged course (4-6 weeks) of antibiotics or would compromise the safety of the patient or compromise the patient's ability to complete the study
  • Symptomatic brain metastases
  • Grade ≥ 2 neuropathy using NCI CTCAE version 3.0 criteria
  • Previous anaphylactic reaction to carboplatin, paclitaxel, and docetaxel
  • Severe or uncontrolled cardiac disease, defined as uncontrolled or unstable angina, myocardial infarction in the last month, uncontrolled congestive heart failure (≥ 3 admissions for congestive heart failure in the 3 months prior to diagnosis)

Limitations and Caveats

The trial was closed prematurely because of slow accrual before the impact of the dose reduction on toxicity and treatment compliance could be assessed. In arm A, 6 patients required a dose reduction. In arm B, 3 patients required a dose reduction.
