Chemotherapy & radiation therapy

Concurrent RT with Cisplatin (Platinol) & Etoposide (Vepesid)

Regimen

  • Cisplatin (Platinol) 50 mg/m2 IV on days 1, 8, 29, 36
  • Etoposide (Vepesid) 50 mg/m2 IV on days 1-5, 29-33
  • Concurrent radiation therapy (start within 24 hours of chemotherapy, 1.8 Gy per day, 5 days per week; 25 fractions given over 5 weeks total for a total of 45 Gy)

5-week initial course of chemotherapy & radiation, THEN

  • Patients reimaged with CT scan (bone scan and head imaging were only done if patients had new symptoms), and those without progression or new metastatic disease received an additional 2 Gy per day x 8 fractions for a total of 61 Gy administered overall

Concurrent RT with Cisplatin (Platinol) & Vinblastine (Velban)

Regimen

5-week total course of chemotherapy

References

Concurrent RT with Carboplatin (Paraplatin) & Paclitaxel (Taxol)

Regimen

  • 1.8 Gy daily, 5 days per week; 25 fractions given over 5 weeks with 45 Gy overall dose, then
  • 2 Gy daily, 5 days per week; 9 additional fractions with an extra 18 Gy given for a total of 63 Gy over a total 7 week course of treatment

21-day cycles x 2 cycles. Note: This regimen is listed in the NCCN guidelines, but it is not what was described in the Belani, et al. paper below. In that paper, additional consolidation chemotherapy was given after concurrent chemotherapy & radiation therapy was completed--that regimen is listed below.

Sequential RT with Cisplatin (Platinol) & Vinblastine (Velban)

Regimen

5-week total course of chemotherapy

Sequential RT with Carboplatin (Paraplatin) & Paclitaxel (Taxol)

Regimen

21-day cycles x 2 cycles

  • Radiation therapy given after chemotherapy is complete:
  • 1.8 Gy daily, 5 days per week; 25 fractions given over 5 weeks with 45 Gy overall dose, then
  • 2 Gy daily, 5 days per week; 9 additional fractions with an extra 18 Gy given for a total of 63 Gy over a total 7 week course of treatment

Concurrent RT with Cisplatin (Platinol) & Etoposide (Vepesid), then consolidation chemo

Regimen

  • Cisplatin (Platinol) 50 mg/m2 IV on days 1, 8, 29, 36
  • Etoposide (Vepesid) 50 mg/m2 IV on days 1-5, 29-33
  • Concurrent radiation therapy (start within 24 hours of chemotherapy, 1.8 Gy per day, 5 days per week; 25 fractions given over 5 weeks total for a total of 45 Gy)

5-week initial course of chemotherapy & radiation, THEN

  • Patients reimaged with CT scan (bone scan and head imaging were only done if patients had new symptoms), and those without progression or new metastatic disease received an additional 2 Gy per day x 8 fractions for a total of 61 Gy administered overall

Additional chemotherapy:

28-day cycles x 2 cycles. Note: "two extra cycles" of chemotherapy are listed as an option in the NCCN guidelines, but I have not been able to find a reference in the primary literature that describes this regimen, nor whether it is two cycles of the initial ~5-week cycle, or whether 28-day cycles are supposed to be used.
