Malignant Mesothelioma Clinical Trial
Official title:
Phase II Study of Gemcitabine and Epirubicin for the Treatment of Mesothelioma
RATIONALE: 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.
PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining gemcitabine and epirubicin
in treating patients who have malignant mesothelioma.
OBJECTIVES:
- Determine the antitumor activity of gemcitabine and epirubicin in patients with
malignant pleural mesothelioma.
- Determine the toxicity of this regimen in this patient population.
- Determine the time to progression and overall survival of patients treated with this
regimen.
- Assess quality of life in patients treated with this regimen.
OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.
Patients receive gemcitabine IV over 30 minutes on days 1 and 8 and epirubicin IV on day 1.
Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or
unacceptable toxicity. Patients achieving complete response (CR) receive 2 additional
courses beyond CR.
Quality of life is assessed at baseline, prior to course 3, at 3 months, and then at 1 year.
Patients are followed every 3 months for 1 year, every 4 months for 1 year, and then every 6
months for 3 years.
