- Histologic or cytologic diagnosis of locally advanced or metastatic (Stage III or IV at entry) NSCLC that is not amenable to curative therapy.
- Patients must have been previously treated with one platinum-containing chemotherapy regimen for locally advanced or metastatic disease.
Patients are also eligible if they have received one platinum-based chemotherapy regimen as neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy, but must have received an additional chemotherapy regimen upon recurrence for incurable disease.
- No more than two prior systemic anticancer therapies will be allowed; no more than one prior therapy will be allowed for metastatic disease.
- Prior anticancer treatment (except radiation) must be completed at least 3 weeks prior to study enrollment, and the patient must have recovered from the acute toxic effects of the regimen.
- Prior radiation therapy is allowed to <25% of the bone marrow. Prior radiation to the whole pelvis is not allowed. Prior radiotherapy must be completed at least 2 weeks before study enrollment, and the patient must have recovered from the acute toxic effects of the treatment prior to study enrollment.
- An ECOG performance status of 0 to 2.
- Estimated life expectancy of at least 8 weeks.
- Adequate organ function that includes the following indices:
Adequate bone marrow reserve: absolute neutrophil (segmented and bands) count (ANC) ³1.5 ´ 109/L, platelets ³100 ´ 109/L, and hemoglobin ³9 g/dL.
Hepatic: bilirubin £1.5 times the upper limit of normal, alkaline phosphatase (AP), aspartate transaminase (AST), and alanine transaminase (ALT) £3.0 times upper limit of normal (AP, AST, and ALT £5 times the upper limit of normal is acceptable if liver has tumor involvement).
Renal: calculated creatinine clearance (CrCl) >45 mL/min using the standard Cockcroft and Gault formula
- At least 18 years of age.
Are the trial subjects under 18? no
Number of subjects for this age range:
F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes
F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range
F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) yes
F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range
- Received treatment within the last 30 days with a drug that has not received regulatory approval for any indication at the time of study entry.
- Active infection that, in the opinion of the investigator, would compromise the patient’s ability to tolerate therapy.
- Pregnancy.
- Breast-feeding.
- Serious concomitant systemic disorders that would compromise the safety of the patient or compromise the patient’s ability to complete the study, at the discretion of the investigator.
- Second primary malignancy that is clinically detectable at the time of consideration for study enrollment (with the exception of in situ carcinoma of the cervix, adequately treated basal cell carcinoma, and early stage prostate cancer with Gleason grade £6).
- Inability to interrupt aspirin or other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents for a 5-day period (8-day period for long-acting agents, such as piroxicam).
- Brain metastases. patients who are symptomatic for brain metastases must have a pretreatment computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging (CT or MRI) of the brain. A patient with documented brain metastases at the time of study entry will be excluded from entering in the study. Patients with prior brain metastases may be considered if they have completed their treatment for brain metastases, no longer require corticosteroids, and are asymptomatic.
- Presence of clinically detectable (by physical exam) third-space fluid collections; for example, ascites or pleural effusions that cannot be controlled by drainage or other procedures prior to study entry.
- Significant weight loss (that is, ³10% of body weight) over the 6 weeks before study entry.
- Inability or unwillingness to take folic acid, vitamin B12 supplementation, or a corticosteroid.
- Have previously completed or withdrawn from this study or any other study investigating ALIMTA.
