Brief Summary

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

RATIONALE: Studying quality-of-life in patients undergoing cancer treatment may help identify the intermediate and long-term effects of treatment on patients with cancer.

PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying quality of life in patients who are receiving either vinorelbine, gemcitabine, and docetaxel or paclitaxel and carboplatin for advanced non-small cell lung cancer.

Detailed Description

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

OBJECTIVES:

* Compare the quality of life of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer treated with vinorelbine, gemcitabine, and docetaxel vs paclitaxel and carboplatin on protocol JMTO-LC00-03.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients receive treatment on protocol JMTO-LC00-03.

Quality of life is assessed using the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Lung (FACT-L), FACT-Taxane, and Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Spirituality (FACIT-Sp) questionnaires at baseline, weeks 9 and 18, and at the completion of treatment.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 80 patients will be accrued for this study.
