    • alkaline phosphatase (ALP) <= 5 UNL
  • Adequate renal function (serum creatinine <= UNL or creatinine clearance >= 60 mL/min)

Exclusion criteria:

  • Other tumour type than advanced / metastatic NSCLC in recent 5 years (except cone-biopsied carcinoma-in-situ of the cervix or adequately treated basal or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin).
  • Presence of symptomatic central nervous system metastases
  • Inadequate liver function

    • total bilirubin > 1 UNL
    • ALT and/or AST>1.5 UNL associated with alkaline phosphatase > 2.5 UNL
    • inadequate renal function (creatinine > 1.0 times UNL and in case of limit value, creatinine clearance < 60 mL/min)
  • Prior radiation therapy, or surgery operation within 4 weeks
  • Prior use of taxoids
  • Active infection, or serious concomitant systemic disorder incompatible with the study
  • Childbearing potential but unwilling to use of an approved contraceptive method
  • Receive treatment from other clinical trials during this study treatment

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The Primary Objective is to evaluate the progression-free survival (PFS). The secondary objectives are: To compare the disease control rates of different doses of Docetaxel+Cisplatin as first-line treatment according to Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria; To evaluate the overall response rate (ORR); To evaluate the time to disease progression (TTP); To evaluate the overall survival (OS); To evaluate the toxicity.
Detailed Description
The study consists in: A first line treatment phase: participants receive 4 cycles of chemotherapy (each cycle contains 3 weeks) with either docetaxel (75 mg/m2) plus cisplatin (75 mg/m2) or docetaxel (60 mg/m2) plus cisplatin (75 mg/m2) , A maintenance treatment phase: participants with disease control (complete response [CR], partial response [PR] or stable disease [SD]) after the initial treatment receive up to 6 cycles of chemotherapy with docetaxel (60 mg/m2) or best supportive care (BSC). A follow-up period from the end of study treatment until participant death or end of study.
