Exclusion criteria
* No prior chemotherapy for NSCLC * Patients with malignancies (other than NSCLC), except for adequately treated nonmelanoma skin cancer or in situ carcinoma of the cervix. * Peripheral neuropathy ≥ grade 2 (NCI CTC, version 3.0) * Clinically significant cardiac disease (medically uncontrollable heart disease) * Active infection or other serious medical illness * Contraindication to any drug contained in the chemotherapy regimen * Pregnant or lactating women were excluded.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| response rate | up to 6 cycles | overall responses are complete response and partial response |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| overall survival | up to 3 years | OS was calculated by the time from randomization date to the date of death |
| progression-free survival | up to 3 years | PFS was calculated by the time from randomization date to objective tumor progression or death. |
| toxicity profiles | up to 6 cycles | Incidence of AE, laboratory test results (hematology, blood chemistry, and urine test), physical examination, vital sign, and ECOG performance were used for safety endpoints |
