Study Arms (1)
Chloroquine
ACTIVE COMPARATORPatients receive Chloroquine
Interventions
Administration: * Orally * Timing: Once daily * Tablets of 100 mg * During or after meals * In case of missed dose: intake of the missed dose is still possible up until 12 hours before the next dose. * Patients should always note date and time of intake on the chloroquine monitoring form.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Histologically or cytologically confirmed ''extensive disease'' (Stage T0-4 N0-3 M1) small cell lung cancer
- At least one measurable disease site, defined as lesion of ≥ 1 cm unidimensionally on CT-scan.
- WHO performance status 0-2
- Absolute neutrophil count at least 1800/µl and platelets at least 100000/µl and hemoglobin at least 6.2 mmol/l.
- Calculated creatinine clearance at least 60 ml/min
- Adequate hepatic function: Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) for the institution; ALT, AST, and alkaline phosphatase ≤ 2.5 x ULN for the institution (in case of liver metastases ≤ 5 x ULN for the institution)
- No previous platinum chemotherapy or topo-isomerase-inhibitors for SCLC.
- Life expectancy more than 6 months
- Willing and able to comply with the study prescriptions
- years or older
- Not pregnant or breast feeding and willing to take adequate contraceptive measures during the study
- Ability to give and having given written informed consent before patient registration
- No mixed pathology, e.g. non-small cell plus small cell cancer
- No recent (\< 3 months) severe cardiac disease (NYHA class \>1) (congestive heart failure, infarction)
- No history of cardiac arrythmia (multifocal premature ventricular contractions, uncontrolled atrial fibrillation, bigeminy, trigeminy, ventricular tachycardia) which is symptomatic and requiring treatment (CTC AE 4.0), or asymptomatic sustained ventricular tachycardia. Asymptomatic atrial fibrillation controlled on medication is allowed.
