Study:
A Phase I Study Of Tirapazamine/Cisplatin/Etoposide And Concurrent Thoracic Radiotherapy For Limited Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer
Rationale:
Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing
so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor
cells. Combining more than one chemotherapy drug with radiation therapy may kill more tumor
cells.
Purpose:
Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy plus radiation
therapy in treating patients who have limited-stage small cell lung cancer.
