| Brief Title † | Combination Chemotherapy in Treating Patients With Extensive-Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer | ||||
| Official Title † | Phase II Trial Of Gemcitabine (NSC-613327) And Irinotecan (NSC-616348) In Patients With Untreated Extensive Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC) | ||||
| Brief Summary | RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy in treating patients who have extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. |
||||
| Detailed Description | OBJECTIVES:
OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients receive gemcitabine IV over 30 minutes followed by irinotecan IV over 90 minutes on days 1 and 8. Treatment repeats every 21 days for a total of 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients are followed every 6 months for 3 years. PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 75 patients will be accrued for this study within 12 months. |
