About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Lung Neoplasms
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Histologically/cytologically confirmed inoperable locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer
- ECOG Performance Status is 0-2
- At least one measurable lesion in two dimensions by means of CT scan
- No brain metastases
- No prior chemotherapy for this malignancy,
- Acceptable hematological profile (as defined by a leukocyte count ≥ 3000/mm3, a platelet count ≥ 100.000mm3 and Hb ≥ 9g/100mL), and adequate renal function (as defined by serum creatinine ≤ 1.5mg/dl or creatinine clearance measured in 24 hours urine ≥ 60 mL/min), and hepatic function (as defined by bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x maximum normal value even with hepatic metastasis; transaminases (ALT, AST) ≤ 2.5 x maximum normal value; alkaline phosphatase ≤ 2.5 x maximum normal value, except in case of a bone metastasis)
Exclusion Criteria:
- Concomitant use of another anti-cancer therapy
- Chemotherapy, radiotherapy or curative surgery
- Evidence of intracerebral metastasis
- Unstable medical condition that makes the patient to take part in a clinical study (congestive heart failure, serious arrhythmia, uncontrolled diabetes mellitus), history of myocardial infarction within last 3 months, massive pleural or peritoneal effusion; or presence of serious uncontrolled infection, diarrhea, ileus, interstitial pneumonia, pulmonary fibrosis.
- Presence of other tumours different from basal cell carcinoma of the skin, with disease free survival less then 3 years.
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding. In women of childbearing potential and in men, an adequate contraceptive method must be used
- Social or psychological condition that render the patient inadequate for the follow-up of the study
- Contraindication for any of the study drugs (e.g. history of hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients of the study drugs)
The above information is not intended to contain all considerations relevant to a patient's potential participation in a clinical trial.
