Phase I Study of the HDAC Inhibitor Vorinostat With Chemotherapy and Radiation Therapy for Treatment of Locally Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)
The purpose of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose of the combination of
vorinostat, cisplatin, pemetrexed, and radiation therapy in patients with unresectable stage
IIIA/IIIB non-small cell lung cancer.
vorinostat, cisplatin, pemetrexed, and radiation therapy in patients with unresectable stage
IIIA/IIIB non-small cell lung cancer.
This phase I trial will escalate doses of the histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDAC) vorinostat
to a chemoradiation platform for cisplatin, pemetrexed and radiation to a dose of 70Gy in
NSCLC patients with unresectable IIIA and dry IIIB disease. The endpoint will be to determine
MTD of the combination.
