153 561 RANDOMIZED STUDY OF ADJWANT CHEMOTHERAPY USING UFT AFTER SURGERY OF NON-SMALL CELL LUNG CANCER Y. Hay&a, C. Konaka and the Research Group for Post- surgical Adjuvant Chemotherapy in the Tokyo Area A randomized study was designed to assess the effe- ctiveness of postsurgical maintenance adjuvant chemo- therapy in non-small cell lung cancer using UFT at the Research Group in the Tokyo Area. A total of 338 cases were registered at 29 institutes from September, 1986 to August, 1989. Cases were divided into 2 groups. Group A; CDDI’(80mg/m*) and VDS (3mg/m2) were admini- stered after surgery. Group B; UFT (250mg/m2/day) was administered orally for 2 years after the same chemo- therapy as Group A. There were 140 eligible cases in Group A and 141 in Group B. There were no significant differences in patient characteristics in the two groups. Survival was compared between the 2 groups according to p stage, T and N factor, curativity and histologic type. There was no difference in overall 4-year survival in 2 groups, however, overall 4-year disease free survival was 54.5% in Group A and 65.5% in Group B, showing a statistical significant diffe- rence. In overall survival, better results were obta- ined in stage la and absolutely curatively resected cases of Group B than Group A, showing a statistical significant difference (P(O.0779 and 0.0662). In over- all 4-year disease free survival, better results were obtained in T2 and absolutely curatively resected cases of Group B, showing a statistical significant difference (P<O.O206 and 0.0297). There was no statis- tical difference between stage II and III cases or according to N factor value and/or histologic type. 569 CARBOPlATlN AND ETOPOSIDE (CM) FOLLOWED BY VlNCRISTINE, DOXORUBICIN AND CYCLOPHOSPNAMIDE (VAC) COMBINED WITH RADIOTHERAPY (RI) IN LlMfTED SMALL CELL LUNG CANCER (SCLC).

DR Gandara. FH Valone, EA Perez. AB Deisseroth. M Roach, DK Ahn, T Phillips. Northern California Oncology Group (NCOG). Alternating radiotherapy (RT) and chemotherapy increases tumor curs rates in some animal models compared to sequential use of these modalities and results in reduced normal tissue damage compared to concurrent use. To test this concept in NSCLC, patients (pts) with predominantly stage IIIB disease were treated on a NCOG pilot study of alternating RT and high dose cisplatin. RT consisted of 6000 cGy delivered in three separate 10 day courses of 200 ffiytfractionlday during weeks 1 and 2, 5 and 6. and 9 and 10. Cisplatin lOO/mglm2 in 3% saline was given on weeks 3 and 4, 7 and 6, 11 and 12, and 15 and 16. Median age 59 (40-70). stage IIIA 11118: 6/23. Results are reported in 29 pts with > 1 year of follow up. The response rate in 26 eligible pts is 71% (20/26) with six complete responses and 14 partial responses. Feasibility of this approach is demonstrated by 25126 pts completing RT and a median of 2.5 courses of chemotherapy administered. Median survival time (MST) is 25 months (range 2- 46+ months). MST in Stage IIIB is 11.2 mos. One and two year survival rates are 61% (17/26) and 32% (g/26), respectively. Hematologic, renal, and radiation-related toxicities were significant but manageable. We conclude that rapid alternation of RT and a high dose intensity cisplatin regimen is feasible in Stage Ill NSCLC, with a high response rats and acceptable toxicity. The long-term impact on local control and survival remains unclear, although survival data are encouraging in this poor prognosis population. Further studies of this concept ara warranted. 570 Comparative Phase II Study of CAV-PVP Hybrid(HY) Regimen and CAV-PVP Sequential(SE) Reqimen in Patients with Small Cell Lunq Cancer(SCLC) Hiroshi UEOKA, Taisuke OHNOSHI, Shunkichi HIRAKI, Haruhito KAMEI, Tadashi MAEDA and Ikuro KIMURA Department of Medicine, Okayama University Medical School, Dkayama 700, Japan From November 1987, 92 patients were randomly allocated to receive either HY or SE. consisted of CAV (cyclophosphamide HY regimen 700mg/m2, adriamycin 30mg/m2, vincristine 1.4mg/m2) on day 1 and PVP (cisplatin 60mg/m2 and etoposide lOOmg/m2 x 2 days) on day 8, and repeated up to 6 cycles at 4- week interval. In SE regimen, CAV was given on days 1 & 8 for the initial 3 cycles, followed by 3 cycles of PVP on days 1 & 8. Patients with LD received chest RT at a dose of 5OGy after achieving maximal tumor response and PC1 of 3OGy was delivered for CR patients.

These results indicate that both regimens are equally effective for SCLC.

RAPIDLY ALTERNATING RADIOTHERAPY AND HIGH DOSE CISPLATIN IN STAGE Ill NON-SMALL CELL LUNG CANCER (NSCLC): RESULTS OF

A PILOT STUDY. DR Gandara. FH Valone, EA Perez. AB Deisseroth. M Roach, DK Ahn, T Phillips. Northern California Oncology Group (NCOG).

Alternating radiotherapy (RT) and chemotherapy increases

tumor curs rates in some animal models compared to sequential use of these modalities and results in reduced normal tissue damage

Comparative Phase II Study of CAV-PVP Hybrid(HY) Regimen and CAV-PVP Sequential(SE) Reqimen in Patients with Small Cell Lunq Cancer(SCLC)

Hiroshi UEOKA, Taisuke OHNOSHI, Shunkichi HIRAKI, Haruhito KAMEI, Tadashi MAEDA and Ikuro KIMURA Department of Medicine, Okayama University Medical School, Dkayama 700, Japan

From November 1987, 92 patients were randomly allocated to receive either HY or SE. consisted of CAV (cyclophosphamide

HY regimen 700mg/m2,

adriamycin 30mg/m2, vincristine 1.4mg/m2) on day 1 and PVP (cisplatin 60mg/m2 and etoposide lOOmg/m2 x 2 days) on day 8, and repeated up to 6 cycles at 4- week interval. In SE regimen, CAV was given on days 1 & 8 for the initial 3 cycles, followed by 3 cycles of PVP on days 1 & 8. Patients with LD received chest RT at a dose of 5OGy after achieving maximal tumor response and PC1 of 3OGy was delivered for CR patients. Results were the following:

Hybrid Sequential LD ED LD ED

CR+PR(%) 20(95) 20(91) 19(100) 12(75) MST(months) 19.7 12.3 24.4 13.3

Hematologic toxicity was the major dose-limiting toxicity, but it was well-tolerated for both groups. These results indicate that both regimens are equally effective for SCLC.
