    Background:
    No standard of care exists for ECOG Performance Status (PS) 2 patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and therefore clinical practice ranges from supportive care to combination chemotherapy. It was first reported that the combination therapy with carboplatin (CBDCA)/pemetrexed significantly improved survival for PS2 patients with advanced non-squamous NSCLC (J Clin Oncol 31:2849-2853.2013). However, due to the limited utilities of this regimen, establishment of other combination therapy is warranted in PS2 patients with especially squamous NSCLC or unfavorable renal function. On the other hand, in CA031 trial, CBDCA/nab-paclitaxel (PTX) demonstrated a significantly higher response rate (RR) compared with CBDCA/PTX in PS0-1 patients with advanced NSCLC, especially squamous histology (J Clin Oncol 30:2055-2062.2012). Furthermore, in elderly patients over 70 years old, CBDCA/nab-PTX tended to show superior PFS and OS on the basis of better tolerability compared with CBDCA/PTX. Thus, CBDCA/nab-PTX could be a valid treatment option for PS2 patients whose PS is exacerbated due to mass effect of NSCLC despite appropriate organ function.
    
    Methods:
    This phase 2 trial is enrolling untreated PS2 patients with NSCLC and appropriate organ function under 75 years old. Patients are included if they had histologically/cytologically confirmed stage IIIB/IV NSCLC unfit for surgery or radiotherapy, whereas they are excluded if they had uncontrolled symptomatic brain metastasis or uncontrolled pleural effusion. The primary endpoint is PFS rate at 6months. Achievement of more than 50% is considered worthy of further development of this combination therapy, whereas that of less than 30% is considered insufficient for further investigation. The estimated power of this design is 80% with a type I error of 0.05, resulting in 35 patients needed. Considering that about 20% of patients are likely to be excluded from the trial, we planned to enroll 45 patients. Patients are treated with nab-PTX (70 mg/m[2] on day1, 8, and15, q4w) and CBDCA (AUC 5 on day1, q4w), up to 6 cycles. Concurrently, Quality of life and Charlson Comorbidity Index are planned to be checked about the patients treated with this regimen. This study is open for enrollment and recruitment is ongoing. Clinical trial information: UMIN000019458.
