Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Metabolic Response Conversion Rate Between 3 and 6 Weeks After Starting Chemotherapy at a Threshold of a 20% Decrease in SUVmean
Metabolic response conversion rate is the number of participants initially classified as non-metabolic responders relative to baseline at week 3 after starting chemotherapy, who are then, relative to week 3, reclassified as metabolic responders at week 6 after starting chemotherapy, based on a pre-specified threshold of a 20% decrease in mean standardized uptake value (SUVmean) of [18F]-Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG). The SUVmean was calculated by summing the radioactivity from volumes of interest within each tumor and normalizing for the injected dose and lean body mass.
Secondary Outcome Measures
Repeatability of FDG SUVmean at Baseline
Two positron emission tomography (PET) scans are obtained on different days at baseline, as close together as possible, under conditions of no biological change, to measure FDG SUVmean. The SUVmean was calculated by summing the radioactivity from volumes of interest within each tumor and normalizing for the injected dose and lean body mass.
Change in FDG-PET Uptake From Baseline to Week 3
Fold change in SUVmean of FDG uptake with accompanying 80% Confidence Interval. The SUVmean was calculated by summing the radioactivity from volumes of interest within each tumor and normalizing for the injected dose and lean body mass.
Change in FDG-PET Uptake From Week 3 to Week 6
Fold change in SUVmean of FDG uptake with accompanying 80% Confidence Interval. The SUVmean was calculated by summing the radioactivity from volumes of interest within each tumor and normalizing for the injected dose and lean body mass.
Change in FGD-PET Uptake From Baseline to Week 6
Fold change in SUVmean of FDG uptake with accompanying 80% Confidence Interval.
The SUVmean was calculated by summing the radioactivity from volumes of interest within each tumor and normalizing for the injected dose and lean body mass.

Intervention Name(s)
Comparator: CT or MRI and FDG-PET
Intervention Description
Participants have 4 computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans at screening, baseline, at the end of each treatment cycle (day 21 and day 42.) They also have FDG-PET scans, 2 at Baseline and one at the end of each treatment cycle.

Intervention Name(s)
Gemcitabine and Cisplatin or Gemcitabine and Carboplatin
Intervention Description
Gemcitabine administered intravenously at a dose of 1000-1250 mg/m^2 on Day 1 and Day 8 of each cycle; Cisplatin administered intravenously at a dose of 60-85 mg/m^2 or Carboplatin at a dose of 4-6 Area Under the Curve (AUC) on Day 1 of each cycle. Two cycles are given 3 weeks apart.
