ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00193427
  Purpose

This trial is designed to study the role of docetaxel/gemcitabine, an active and relatively non-toxic combination in advanced NSCLC. This study will help to better define optimal preoperative regimens for patients with resectable NSCLC. Since both of these drugs are potent radio-sensitizers, the concurrent use with radiation therapy at these weekly doses may produce not only radio-sensitization, but also considerable antitumor efficacy.

Further study details as provided by Sarah Cannon Research Institute:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Pathologic complete response rate

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Secondary Outcomes:
  • Overall response rate
  • Overall tolerability and toxicity
  • Resectability rates
  • Time-to-progression
  • Overall survival

Estimated Enrollment: 80
Study Start Date: April 2004
Detailed Description:

Upon determination of eligibility, patients will receive:

Pre-operative

  • Docetaxel
  • Gemcitabine Post-operative
  • Docetaxel
  • Carboplatin
  • Radiation Therapy

Patients with stage IB and II NSCLC who achieved clear margins will not receive any further therapy. Patients with incomplete resection, resection margins of a T3 tumor that are positive or close, stage IIIA AND IIIB NSCLC or disease judged unresectable after preoperative chemotherapy will receive postoperative treatment

  • Measurable or evaluable disease
  • Able to perform activities of daily living with minimal assistance
  • Must be > 18 years of age
  • Adequate bone marrow, liver or kidney
  • No previous chemotherapy or radiation therapy for non-small cell lung cancer
