To test the concept that cisplatin dose-intensity is important in the treatment of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the Southwest Oncology Group (SWOG) performed a randomized trial comparing standard-dose cisplatin (SDCP) 50 mg/m2 days 1 and 8 on a 28-day cycle for eight cycles, high-dose cisplatin (HDCP) 100 mg/m2 days 1 and 8 for four cycles, and high-dose cisplatin plus mitomycin (HDCP-M) 8 mg/m2 day 1. To isolate the effects of dose-intensity versus total dose, the planned cumulative cisplatin dose was 800 mg/m2 in each arm.
Between July 1988 and April 1990, 356 patients were enrolled and 323 were eligible and assessable. All patients had metastatic, measurable disease, were chemotherapy-naive, and had a performance status (PS) of 0 to 2.
Confirmed complete plus partial response rates were SDCP, 12%; HDCP, 14%; and HDCP-M, 27% (P < .05). Complete responses were uncommon (HDCP, 3%; HDCP-M, 4%) and were observed only in the high-dose arms. Progressive disease occurred more frequently in the SDCP arm (57%) compared with HDCP (38%) or HDCP-M (34%) (P < .05). However, there were no significant differences in median survival times (SDCP, 6.9 months; HDCP, 5.3 months; HDCP-M, 7.2 months; P = .53). The mean delivered dose-intensity for cisplatin was significantly greater in the high-dose arms: HDCP 41 mg/m2/wk and HDCP-M 39 mg/m2/wk, versus SDCP 23 mg/m2/wk (P = .05). The high-dose arms resulted in an increased incidence of ototoxicity, emesis, and myelosuppression, but similar degrees of renal toxicity and neuropathy compared with SDCP.
This study does not confirm evidence of a steep clinical dose-response curve for cisplatin in NSCLC at the cisplatin dose-intensities achieved. The addition of mitomycin increases the response rate, but does not improve survival. Continued evaluation of new agents in this disease is warranted.
为验证顺铂剂量强度在非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)治疗中具有重要性这一概念,西南肿瘤协作组(SWOG)开展了一项随机试验,比较标准剂量顺铂(SDCP),每28天为一个周期,第1天和第8天给予50mg/m²,共8个周期;高剂量顺铂(HDCP),每28天为一个周期,第1天和第8天给予100mg/m²,共4个周期;以及高剂量顺铂加丝裂霉素(HDCP-M),第1天给予8mg/m²。为分离剂量强度与总剂量的影响,各治疗组计划的顺铂累积剂量均为800mg/m²。
1988年7月至1990年4月期间,共纳入356例患者,其中323例符合条件且可进行评估。所有患者均有转移性、可测量病灶,既往未接受过化疗,且体能状态(PS)为0至2。
确认的完全缓解加部分缓解率分别为:SDCP组12%;HDCP组14%;HDCP-M组为27%(P <.05)。完全缓解情况不常见(HDCP组3%;HDCP-M组4%),仅在高剂量组中观察到。与HDCP组(38%)或HDCP-M组(34%)相比,SDCP组疾病进展更为频繁(57%)(P <.05)。然而,中位生存时间无显著差异(SDCP组6.9个月;HDCP组5.3个月;HDCP-M组7.2个月;P =.53)。高剂量组顺铂的平均实际剂量强度显著更高:HDCP组为41mg/m²/周,HDCP-M组为39mg/m²/周,而SDCP组为23mg/m²/周(P =.05)。与SDCP组相比,高剂量组耳毒性、呕吐和骨髓抑制的发生率增加,但肾毒性和神经病变程度相似。
本研究未证实达到的顺铂剂量强度下,NSCLC中顺铂存在陡峭的临床剂量-反应曲线。添加丝裂霉素可提高缓解率,但未改善生存率。有必要继续评估针对该疾病的新型药物。
