Objectives - Compare the feasibility of neoadjuvant combination chemotherapy with vs without surgery and adjuvant radiotherapy in patients with resectable malignant mesothelioma.
- Compare the overall survival of patients treated with these regimens.
- Compare the quality of life of patients treated with these regimens.
Entry Criteria Disease Characteristics:
- Histologically and immuno-histochemically confirmed malignant mesothelioma
- Resectable disease (T1-3, N0-1, M0) with no distant metastases
- Eligible to undergo extra-pleural pneumonectomy based on British Thoracic Society guidelines
Prior/Concurrent Therapy:
Patient Characteristics:
Performance status Life expectancy Hematopoietic Hepatic Renal Cardiovascular Pulmonary - Predicted post-operative FEV1 ≥ 40%
- Predicted post-operative DLCO ≥ 40%
- No significant pulmonary hypertension
Other - No physical or personal condition that would preclude ability to undergo chemotherapy or post-operative radiotherapy
- No physical or personal condition that would preclude ability to comply with follow-up requirements
Expected Enrollment 670A total of 50-670 patients will be accrued for this study. Outline This is a multicenter, pilot study followed by a randomized, controlled study. Patients undergo 3 courses of a platinum-based (cisplatin or carboplatin) combination chemotherapy regimen to be determined by the treatment center. Upon completion of combination chemotherapy, patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms provided tumor is resectable and there is no disease progression. - Arm I: Patients undergo extra-pleural pneumonectomy followed by post-operative radiotherapy.
- Arm II: Patients undergo follow-up only. Patients may receive additional standard therapy according to their treatment center.
Quality of life is assessed at baseline, every 3 months for 1 year, every 6 months for 1 year, and then annually thereafter. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed periodically for 2 years and then annually thereafter. Peer Reviewed and Funded or Endorsed by Cancer Research UK

Note: The purpose of most clinical trials listed in this database is to test new cancer treatments, or new methods of diagnosing, screening, or preventing cancer. Because all potentially harmful side effects are not known before a trial is conducted, dose and schedule modifications may be required for participants if they develop side effects from the treatment or test. The therapy or test described in this clinical trial is intended for use by clinical oncologists in carefully structured settings, and may not prove to be more effective than standard treatment. A responsible investigator associated with this clinical trial should be consulted before using this protocol. Back to Top |
