Colon Cancer • Platinum active in many malignancies • Platinum highly synergistic with 5FU • Widely tested combination in 1980’s • 1988 • Cisplatin + 5FU vs. 5FU • Demonstrated the lack of efficacy of cisplatin in colon cancer
Melanoma • Dartmouth regimen commonly prescribed and considered standard in 1990’s • Highly toxic and inconvienent • Utilized multiple highly emetic drugs (cisplatin, DTIC, BCNU) • 1999: DTIC vs Dartmouth • No difference in efficacy • Altered what was considered “standard therapy” for metastatic melanoma
Bladder Cancer • Gemcitabine/Paclitaxel • Identified high incidence of ILD with this combination • Activity of Alimta • Cis/Gem/Avastin • Study basis for planned randomized trial
Small Cell Lung Cancer • Defined activity of oral etoposide in refractory SCLC • VIP vs EP: positive phase III trial • VIP +/- oral etoposide: defined the lack of efficacy of prolonged etoposide treatment and role of maintenance chemotherapy • IP vs EP: refuted JCOG trial • Iressa and Alimta in relapsed SCLC: only drugs tested to date which are more active in NSCLC than in SCLC • Only group to evaluate efficacy of Avastin in relapsed SCLC
Stage III NSCLC • XRT +/- Cisplatin: confirmed lack of survival benefit with q3wk cisplatin alone • Carbo/Taxol--->XRT--->Carbo/Taxol • Tested “consolidation” carbo/taxol • Confirmed toxicity/intolerance to consolidation • Reported lack of efficacy with more than 2 cycles of chemotherapy • EP/XRT +/- Docetaxel • Refuted SWOG 9504 trial which shaped clinical practice world-wide in stage III disease
Advanced NSCLC • Cisplatin/Gemcitabine phase II study • Cis/Gem vs Cis phase III study • Established role of gemcitabine in NSCLC • CODE regimen • Lack of efficacy of dose dense therapy • Pemetrexed vs Docetaxel • Established role of pemetrexed in NSCLC
Quality of Life • Prozac vs Placebo • Only study to evaluate placebo-controlled, phase III trial in cancer population • Olanzapine phase I and phase II studies • Established potential of this anti-emetic to control acute and delayed nausea against moderate to highly emetagenic chemotherapy
