Ph II Adjuvant Carboplatin/Docetaxel in Curatively Resected Stage I-IIIA NSCLC

Study summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin and docetaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving carboplatin together with docetaxel after surgery may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving carboplatin together with docetaxel works in treating patients with stage I, stage II, or stage III non-small cell lung cancer.

  • Platelet count ≥ 100,000/mm\^3
  • Serum creatinine normal OR creatinine clearance ≥ 40 mL/min
  • Bilirubin normal
  • Alkaline phosphatase (AP), Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and Alanine transaminase (ALT) must meet 1 of the following criteria:
  • AP normal AND AST and ALT ≤ 5 times upper limit of normal (ULN)
  • AP ≤ 2.5 times ULN AND AST and ALT ≤ 1.5 times ULN
  • AP ≤ 5 times ULN AND AST and ALT normal
  • Negative pregnancy test
  • Fertile patients must use effective contraception during and for at least 3 months after study therapy
Reasons someone may not be able to joinExclusion criteria
  • Patients with a history of severe hypersensitivity to docetaxel or polysorbate 80 are excluded.
