Summary

This phase I/II trial (phase I closed to accrual as of 09/29/2009) is studying the side effects and best dose of bortezomib, paclitaxel, and carboplatin when given with radiation therapy and to see how well they work in treating patients with stage IIIA or stage IIIB non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. Bortezomib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Bortezomib may increase the effectiveness of paclitaxel and carboplatin by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drugs. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Giving bortezomib, paclitaxel, and carboplatin together with radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells.

  • Not pregnant or nursing
  • Negative pregnancy test
  • Fertile patients must use effective contraception
  • No peripheral neuropathy ≥ grade 2
  • No other severe underlying disease that would preclude study participation
  • No uncontrolled infection
  • No unhealed wound within the past 2 weeks
  • No other malignancy within the past 5 years except adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer, adequately treated noninvasive carcinomas (carcinoma in situ), or localized prostate cancer

Contraindications

  • Any of the following:
  • Pregnant wome
  • Nursing women
  • Men or women of childbearing potential or their sexual partners who are unwilling to employ adequate contraception (condoms, diaphragm, birth control pills, injections, intrauterine device [IUD], or abstinence, etc.) as this regimen may be harmful to a developing fetus or nursing child NOTE: This study involves an investigational agent whose genotoxic, mutagenic and teratogenic effects on the developing fetus and newborn are unknown.
  • Any of the following prior therapies:
  • Prior radiation therapy to the chest
  • Prior systemic chemotherapy for NSCLC (phase II portion)
  • New York Heart Association classification III or IV (see Appendix II).
  • Any other severe underlying diseases which are, in the judgment of the investigator, inappropriate for entry into this study.
  • uncontrolled infection.
  • Major surgery or unhealed wound ≤ 2 weeks prior to registration.
  • Prior history of malignancy ≤ 5 years, except for adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer, adequately treated noninvasive carcinomas (carcinoma in situ), or localized prostate cancer.
  • Peripheral neuropathy ≥grade 2
