Three Modalities of Treatment in Operable and Resectable Stage IIIA (T1-3, N2) Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)
- Conditions
- Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
- Interventions
- Drug: Cisplatin-GemzarDrug: Cisplatin-Navelbine-RadiotherapyDrug: Carboplatin-Taxol-Radiotherapy
- Registration Number
- NCT00198367
- Lead Sponsor
- Hospices Civils de Lyon
- Brief Summary
Stage IIIA non-small cell lung cancers comprising a mediastinal ganglionic invasion N2 account for 20 to 30% of the NSCLCs. They are almost always potentially resectable, but the results obtained by surgery alone or surgery followed by chemotherapy (CT) and/or radiotherapy (RT) are insufficient. The neoadjuvant approach was tested, in randomized tests of exclusive CT, or in noncomparative tests of RT-CT.
- Detailed Description
These results justify the choice of the study design currently suggested, testing the preoperative feasibility
1. chemotherapy: cisplatin-Gemzar (arm A) or
2. chemoradiotherapy: cisplatin-navelbine-radiotherapy (arm B) or Carboplatin-Taxol-radiotherapy (arm C).
The results obtained, in terms of feasibility and toxicity, will make it possible to select the optimal diagrams for a phase III study.
