ABSTRACT

Although co-administration of cisplatin (CDDP) and vinorelbine (VNR) has been established as a standard of care adjuvant chemotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), there is a lack of clinical data on its safety and efficacy in Japanese patients receiving split-dose administration of CDDP. The present study analyzed patients who received CDDP + VNR with split-dose administration of CDDP after undergoing complete resection of NSCLC. Patients received four courses of CDDP (40 mg/m2) and VNR (25 mg/m2) on days 1 and 8, every 3 weeks. There were 27 male and 13 female patients; the mean age was 65 years (range 38-78 years), the postoperative disease staging distribution was IIA/IIB/IIIA: 14/8/18 patients, and histological distribution was adenocarcinoma/squamous cell carcinoma/others: 24/12/4 patients, respectively. Of the 40 patients, 28 (70%) completed the four courses of treatment. The mean total dose administered was 279 mg/m2 CDDP (87.2%) and 172 mg/m2 VNR (86%). The major adverse events included Grade (G) 3 or higher neutropenia (80%), G3 phlebitis (5%) and vomiting (2.5%). There was no G2 or higher serum creatinine level elevation, G3 or higher anorexia and nausea, or any treatment-related deaths. The overall completion rate of four courses was 70 and 62.5% for patients aged 70 years and older, whereas the overall percentage of patients that could complete three or more courses was 85 and 87.5% for patients aged 70 years and older. The relapse-free survival rate was 60% at 3 years and 57.5% at 5 years. Overall survival rate was 80% at 3 years and 60% at 5 years. The present study demonstrated the sufficient tolerability, safety and efficacy of combined CDDP + VNR adjuvant chemotherapy with split-dose administration of CDDP, with a low risk of gastrointestinal toxicities or nephrotoxicity.
