Brief Summary:
This is a multicenter, phase II, open-label trial to evaluate the efficacy of pemetrexed + carboplatin combined with thoracic radiotherapy in patients with Limited Stage of small cell lung cancer
| Condition or disease | Intervention/treatment | Phase |
|---|---|---|
| Small Cell Lung Cancer | Drug: pemetrexed Drug: carboplatin Procedure: radiotherapy | Phase 2 |
Two 21-day cycles of pemetrexed (500 milligrams per square meter [mg/m2] intravenous [IV] infusion) and carboplatin (target area under the curve [AUC] 5 IV infusion) followed by two 21-day cycles of pemetrexed (500 mg/m2 IV infusion) and carboplatin (target AUC 5 IV infusion) with concurrent radiotherapy (2 Gray [Gy] per fraction, 5 fractions per week, up to a dose of 50 Gy is administered).
| Study Type : | Interventional (Clinical Trial) |
| Actual Enrollment : | 4 participants |
| Allocation: | Non-Randomized |
| Intervention Model: | Single Group Assignment |
| Masking: | None (Open Label) |
| Primary Purpose: | Treatment |
| Official Title: | Phase II Study of Concurrent Carboplatin, Pemetrexed, and Radiotherapy for Limited Stage of Small Cell Lung Cancer |
| Study Start Date : | September 2007 |

500 milligrams per square meter (mg/m2), intravenous (IV), every 21 days x 2 cycles then 500 mg/m2, IV, every 21 days x 2 cycles
Other Names:
Drug: carboplatin Area under the curve (AUC) 5, intravenous (IV), every 21 days x 2 cycles then AUC 5, IV, every 21 days x 2 cycles Procedure: radiotherapy 2 Gray (Gy) per fraction, 5 fractions per week, begin day 1, cycle 3 x 5 weeks (Monday-Friday) |
Primary Outcome Measures :
- Proportion of Patients With a Complete or Partial Response (Overall Response Rate [ORR]) [ Time Frame: baseline to measured response after chemotherapy and radiation ]Overall Response Rate (ORR) was defined as the proportion of participants having either a Complete or Partial response using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria. Complete Response=disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response=30% decrease in sum of longest diameter of target lesions.
Secondary Outcome Measures :
- Progression-free Survival [ Time Frame: baseline to measured progressive disease ]Defined as the time from date of first dose to the first observation of disease progression, or death due to any cause.
- Overall Survival [ Time Frame: baseline to date of death from any cause, 1 year ]Overall survival is the duration from enrollment to death (includes 1 year follow-up). For patients who are alive, overall survival is censored at the last contact.
- Duration of Response [ Time Frame: time of response to progressive disease ]The duration of a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) was defined as the time from first objective status assessment of CR or PR to the first time of progression or death as a result of any cause.
- Pharmacology Toxicity [ Time Frame: every 21-day cycle for 4 cycles ]Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG) criteria were used for assessing toxicity. Toxicity grade reflected the most severe degree occurring during the evaluated period, not an average. When two criteria were available for similar toxicities, the one resulting in the more severe grade was used. Toxiccity grades range from 0 to 5. Toxicity grade = 5 if that toxicity caused the death of the patient.
