About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria: Histologic or cytologic new diagnosis of NSCLC, Stage IIIB with a cytologically positive pleural or pericardial effusion or Stage IV. No prior chemotherapy, including adjuvant or neoadjuvant therapy, for the treatment of NSCLC. ECOG Performance Status of 2 . Patients must be at least 3 weeks since major surgery. Patients must be at least 1 week since surgery, such as mediastinoscopy, pleuroscopy, or thoracostomy. Patients must have measurable disease, defined as lesions that can be accurately measured in at least 1 dimension (longest diameter to be recorded) as greater than or equal to 20 mm with conventional techniques or as greater than 10 mm with spiral CT scan. Exclusion Criteria: Any prior radiation therapy to the thoracic area. Active and ongoing systemic infection. Prior radiation to greater than 25% of the bone marrow. ECOG PS other than 2 Patients with a known hypersensitivity to gemcitabine and carboplatin.

To determine the safety of combined Gemcitabine plus Paraplatin versus Gemcitabine as a single-agent in patients with NSCLC and a PS equal to 2
To compare the response rate between treatment groups
To compare the changes in QOL between treatment groups
