Study Summary

Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of surgery with or without combination chemotherapy in treating patients who have stage I non-small cell lung cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. It is not yet known whether surgery is more effective with or without chemotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer.

Primary Outcome

OS curves will be calculated using the Kaplan-Meier life-table method. Comparison of the survival curve for the two treatment regimens will be performed using the log-rank test for censored data.

Interventions

  • DRUG carboplatin
  • DRUG paclitaxel
  • PROCEDURE therapeutic conventional surgery
