简要总结
RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as cetuximab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Cetuximab may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving cetuximab together with radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells.
PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving cetuximab together with radiation therapy works in treating patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer.
详细描述
OBJECTIVES:
Primary
* Determine the 11 month survival rate in older and/or poor performance status patients with stage IIIA or stage IIIB non-small cell lung cancer treated with cetuximab and radiotherapy.
Secondary
- Determine the tumor response rate, overall survival, and time to disease progression in patients treated with this regimen.
- Determine the toxicity of this regimen in these patients.
- Determine whether fear of death is less severe in the oldest of patients treated with this regimen.
- Determine whether fear of death predicts survival of patients treated with this regimen.

结局指标
主要结局
11-month Survival Rate
时间窗: From baseline to 11 months.
Eleven-month survival was chosen as the survival endpoint in this trial because it represents an improvement over the median survival that is observed with radiation alone. 11-month survival will be considered synonymous with "success", unless specified otherwise. The proportion of successes will be estimated by the number of successes divided by the total number of evaluable patients. All evaluable patients will be followed from the time of protocol enrollment until death or a minimum of 11 months.
次要结局
- Survival Time(From baseline to up to 3 years)
- Time to Disease Progression(From Baseline to up to 3 years)
- Tumor Response (Complete and Partial)(Baseline, 1 month and 4 months after completion of treatment and then every 3 months until Progressive Disease (PD) or up to a maximum of 3 years from registration)
