Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.

PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of chemotherapy with pyrazoloacridine in treating patients with stage IIIB or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

OBJECTIVES: I. Evaluate the antitumor activity of pyrazoloacridine (PZA) administered by 3-hour infusion to patients with advanced non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). II. Determine the qualitative and quantitative toxicities of PZA administered on this schedule. III. Determine the response and survival durations of NSCLC patients treated with PZA.

OUTLINE: Single-Agent Chemotherapy. Pyrazoloacridine, PZA, NSC-366140.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: If 2 or 3 responses are observed in the first 18 evaluable patients, 12 additional patients will be entered. Accrual is expected to take 5-12 months.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Pyrazoloacridine

Pyrazoloacridine 750 mg/m2 by 3 hour infusion, every 21 day s in the absence of progressive disease or prohibitive toxicity.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

pyrazoloacridine

Intervention Type DRUG

Pyrazoloacridine 750 mg/m2 by 3 hour infusion, every 21 day s in the absence of progressive disease or prohibitive toxicity.

Depending on the prior cycle toxicity the dose should be escalated, maintained or reduced, utilizing levels: -1, 0 (initial dose level), 1 - Level +1 (820mg/m2); Level 0 (750mg/m2); Level -1 (600mg/m2)
