Study Summary

Dose-dense chemotherapy is a chemotherapy treatment plan in which drugs are given with less time between treatments than in standard chemotherapy. The two chemotherapy drugs used in this study, docetaxel and cisplatin, are approved for the treatment of lung cancer when given every 21 days. This study is exploring the response to chemotherapy when these drugs are given every 14 days. In addition, genetic tests will be performed on pre-treatment specimens to identify signatures that may predict chemotherapy sensitivity or resistance.

Primary Outcome

Response will be assessed using the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria. Response is defined as the number patients with a Complete Response (CR), disappearance of all target lesions, or a Partial Response (PR), at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of target lesions.

Interventions

  • DRUG Docetaxel
  • DRUG cisplatin
  • DRUG Pegfilgrastim
