Summary

Seventy two patients are being asked to take part in this research study because they have been diagnosed with Stage IIIA or IIIB non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This study is being done to determine the highest safe dose of proton beam radiotherapy and/or study drug (called Nelfinavir) that can be given with concurrent chemoradiotherapy to patients with cancer without causing bad side effects; and to develop biomarker for clinical outcome. This study will be done in two phases. In the first phase, feasibility will be established. We will follow patients treatment courses and record side effects at the standard proton radiation dose that can be given together with Cisplatinum + Etoposide or Carboplatin + Paclitaxel. In the second phase, we will see if it is possible to increase the total proton radiation dose or study drug without increasing the number of bad side effects while treated together with chemotherapy drugs.

Conditions

  • Non Small Cell Lung Cancer

Nelfinavir

Two dose levels of Nelfinavir will be evaluated in each concurrent chemotherapy group (carboplatin/paclitaxel and cisplatin/etoposide) at the RPTD does of proton beam radiotherapy: 625 and 1250 mg PO bid.
