Study Summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Nab-paclitaxel (paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation) may make tumor cells more sensitive to radiation therapy. Giving nab-paclitaxel together with radiation therapy and carboplatin may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of giving nab-paclitaxel together with carboplatin and radiation therapy and to see how well it works in treating patients with stage III non-small-cell lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery.

Primary Outcome

The highest dose in milligrams per meter of body surface squared (mg/m2) of nab-paclitaxel in combination with carboplatin while maintaining tolerability. Cohorts of 3-6 patients received escalating doses of nab-paclitaxel in combination with carboplatin until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) was achieved. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 or more of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) during the initial cycle of therapy. DLTs per Common Toxicity Criteria v
