NCT00495170

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if proton radiotherapy given with standard chemotherapy (such as paclitaxel and carboplatin) can help to control locally advanced NSCLC. The safety of this treatment will also be studied.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Overall Survival and Progression Free Survival

    The primary objective was to improve overall survival (OS). Patients are recommended to have follow up 6 weeks after completion of concurrent chemo radiotherapy for the evaluation of acute treatment toxicities, then required every 3 months (+ 1 month) for two years, then every 6 months (+ 1 month) for three years and then annually for the rest of their lives, that is standard of care. Statistics were performed with Strata/MP 14.2 software. OS was calculated by Kaplan-Meier Methodology (K-M) from the beginning of enrollment to date of death or last follow-up. Progression-free survival (PFS) was defined from enrollment to any treatment failure or death. PFS will be evaluated by series CT of chest with contrast for every follow up except 6 weeks after the concurrent chemo radiotherapy for two years. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards modeling was used to examine predictors of OS when adjusting for each of the collected potential confounding variables.

    The Overall survival (OS): From date of registration to the last follow-up (f/u), or lost to f/u, or death up to 5 years. The progression free survival (PFS): From date of registration to the date of first documented progression or death up to 5 years.

Eligibility Criteria

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Histologically or cytologically documented NSCLC.
  • Inoperable stage IIIA (T1--3N2MO, T3N1MO) and IIIB (T1-3N3MO, T4NO-3MO) disease excluding malignant pleural effusion.
  • Performance score Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) 70-100, Weight loss: less or equal to 10% in 6 months prior to diagnosis.
  • Patient consented for the protocol
  • Induction chemotherapy is allowed.

You may not qualify if:

  • Prior chest radiotherapy.
  • Previous or concomitant malignancy other than (a) curatively treated carcinoma in situ of cervix, (b) basal cell carcinoma of the skin, (c) curatively treated superficial transitional cell carcinoma of the urinary bladder, and (d) early stage tumor treated more than 3 years ago for cure.
  • Pregnancy. Patients (men and women) of child bearing potential should use an effective (for them) method of birth control throughout their participation in this study.
  • Off study criteria: a) If a patient is found to have distant metastasis during treatment and/or immediate after the treatment (\<60 days) indicating inaccurate cancer stage, he or she will be taken off study. b) If a patient does not follow up at MD Anderson and does not forward his or her medical records such as CT, PET/CT, pulmonary function test (PFT) or pathology report as required by protocol, he or she will be taken off study. c) If a patient does not have any required post-treatment evaluation such as images, he or she will be taken off study.
