简要总结

RATIONALE: Modafinil may be effective in relieving fatigue in patients with cancer who are undergoing chemotherapy. The effectiveness of modafinil in relieving chemotherapy-related fatigue is not yet known.

PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying the effectiveness of modafinil in treating fatigue in patients who are receiving chemotherapy for cancer.

详细描述

OBJECTIVES:

  • Assess the degree to which modafinil can reduce fatigue in cancer patients receiving chemotherapy.
  • Assess the relationship between depression and fatigue in patients treated with this drug.

OUTLINE: This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study. Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

  • Arm I: Beginning on day 5 of the second course of chemotherapy, patients receive oral modafinil once daily.
  • Arm II: Beginning on day 5 of the second course of chemotherapy, patients receive oral placebo once daily.

Treatment in both arms continues until day 7 of course 4 of chemotherapy in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
