Phase III randomised trial comparing paclitaxel/carboplatin with paclitaxel/cisplatin in patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer: a cooperative multinational trial

Abstract: This is the first trial comparing carboplatin and cisplatin in the treatment of advanced NSCLC. Although paclitaxel/carboplatin yielded a similar response rate, the significantly longer median survival obtained with paclitaxel/cisplatin indicates that cisplatin-based chemotherapy should be the first treatment option.

“…On the other hand, treatment with cisplatin and gemcitabine was associated with more renal toxicity (Schiller et al, 2002). Recently, Rosell et al (2002) compared two platinum-based regimens and showed that a cisplatin-based therapy was associated with a significantly longer median survival. However, in our trial, response rates and survival were similar in both arms, but the nonplatinum-containing regimen had a less favourable toxicity profile.…”

“…Several trials in the past compared regimens containing cisplatin vs carboplatin with conflicting results [26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33]. In 2007, an individual patient data meta-analysis performed by Ardizzoni et al [34], including 9 of these trials and comparing cisplatin VS carboplatin-based chemotherapy in 2968 NSCLC patients, showed a significant improvement of ORR in favour of cisplatin arm (30% VS 24%; OR: 1.37, P < 0.001), while no significant differences between two arms were observed in survival rate.…”

“…Meanwhile, paclitaxel carboplatin chemotherapy would also cause thrombocytopenia in 58% of ovarium cancer patients [26]. Research by Rosell et al also showed that paclitaxel carboplatin regimen would cause a higher risk of thrombocytopenia for as much as 27% compared to 13% in non-small-cell-lung cancer patients with paclitaxel cisplatin regimen [27]. This result is in accordance to another research by Bois et al that stated how combined paclitaxel and cisplatin chemotherapies will cause toxicity in thrombocyte, erythrocyte, leukocyte, neutrophil, and neutropenia [28].…”
