Participant Flow

Date of first participant in: 26 January 2007. Data of last participant's last visit in study protocol: 7 March 2007. The study was conducted at single center in Japan.

Vorinostat with Carboplatin and Paclitaxel were investigated in participants with chemotherapy-naive non-small cell lung cancer. Enroll 3 participants to dose level 1 of vorinostat and decide whether to enroll additional participants based on the Dose Limited Toxicity (DLT) manifestation. The starting dose of vorinostat was 300 mg once daily.

Measure
Vorinostat (300 mg)
This group includes data from all participants who were treated with vorinostat 300 mg once daily consecutive days (14 days) followed by 11 days of rest in the first cycle or 7 days of rest in the second or later cycle.
Vorinostat (400 mg)
This group includes data from all participants who are treated with vorinostat 400 mg once daily consecutive days (14 days) followed by 11 days of rest in the first cycle or 7 days of rest in the second or later cycle. However, no participants received vorinostat 400 mg once daily due to early discontinuation of the study based on the dose limited toxicity on vorinostat 300 mg once daily.
