简要总结
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. It is not yet known whether receiving cisplatin with raltitrexed is more effective than cisplatin alone for malignant mesothelioma.
PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of cisplatin with or without raltitrexed in treating patients who have malignant mesothelioma of the pleura.
详细描述
OBJECTIVES:
- Compare overall survival in patients with malignant pleural mesothelioma treated with raltitrexed with or without cisplatin.
- Assess toxicity, progression free survival, and quality of life with these treatment regimens in these patients.
- Evaluate objective response and duration of response to these treatment regimens in patients with measurable disease.
OUTLINE: This is a randomized, open, multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to performance status (0 vs 1-2) and WBC count (less than 8,300/mm3 vs 8,300/mm3 or more). Patients are randomized to one of two treatment arms.
- Arm I: Patients receive cisplatin IV over 1-2 hours on day 1.
- Arm II: Patients receive raltitrexed IV over 15 minutes followed by cisplatin IV over 1-2 hours on day 1.
Treatment continues every 3 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
