Lung Cancer Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Phase II Study of Protracted Infusional 5-Fluorouracil Plus Alpha Interferon for Advanced Metastatic Carcinoid
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing
so they stop growing or die. Interferon alfa may interfere with the growth of the cancer
cells. Combining interferon alfa with chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells.
PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of fluorouracil plus interferon alfa in
treating patients who have advanced metastatic carcinoid tumors.
OBJECTIVES:
- Determine the objective response rate and duration of remission in patients with
advanced metastatic carcinoid tumors treated with fluorouracil and interferon alfa-2b.
- Determine the symptomatic response in patients treated with this regimen.
- Determine the toxicity of this regimen in these patients.
- Determine the quality of life of patients treated with this regimen.
- Determine the survival characteristics of patients treated with this regimen.
OUTLINE: Patients receive fluorouracil IV continuously for 10 weeks and interferon alfa
subcutaneously 3 times a week for 12 weeks. Treatment continues every 12 weeks in the
absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Quality of life is assessed at baseline and at weeks 1, 7, and 11 of each course.
Patients are followed every 3 months.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 50 patients will be accrued for this study.
