Official title
A Phase III Trial of Induction Paclitaxel and Carboplatin Followed By Standard Radiotherapy (64 Gy/7 Weeks) vs. Hyperfractionated Accelerated Radiotherapy (HART 57.6 Gy/2.5 Weeks) For Patients With Unresectable Stage IIIA and IIIB Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Combining more than one drug with either standard radiation therapy or radiation therapy given at different times may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy consisting of paclitaxel and carboplatin, plus either standard radiation therapy or radiation therapy given at different times, in treating patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be surgically removed.
