Arm Type

Active Comparator

Experimental

Arm Label

Arm A:Standard radiochemotherapy

Arm B Escalated radiochemotherapy

Arm Description

Radiotherapy with 2 Gy per fractions 5 fractions a week to 68 Gy to the planning target volume. Three courses of cisplatin 75 mg/m2 day 1and vinorelbine 25 mg/m2 day 1+8. Two courses concomitant with radiation.

Radiotherapy with 2 Gy per fraction 5 or 6 times a week to 68-84 Gy to the planning target volume due to normal tissue tolerance constraints. Dose to lung tissue, esophagus and spinal cord will be considered. Three courses of cisplatin 75 mg/m2 day 1 and vinorelbine 25 mg/m2 day 1+8 will be given, two courses concomitant with radiation.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Progression free survival

Secondary Outcome Measures

Numbers of patients without progression of locoregional disease
Measured with CT-scan according to the RECIST criteria for response

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to examine the valu of individually dose escalated radiotherapy compared with a standard dose of radiotherapy combined with standard concomitant chemotherapy for patients with locally advanced non small cell lung cancer (stage III) with good performance status.
Detailed Description
This is an open label, multicentre phase II trial of individually escalated radiotherapy up to 84 Gy due to normal tissue dose constraints combined with standard concurrent chemotherapy (cisplatin-vinorelbine) compared to standard dose radiotherapy (68 Gy) combined with the same chemotherapy. There are restrictions due to lung function, performance status and pre-treatment weight loss. The main endpoint is progression free survival and additional endpoints are local control, overall survival, toxicity quality of life and relapse pattern.
