Randomized trial of three cisplatin dose schedules in squamous-cell carcinoma of the cervix: a Gynecologic Oncology Group study
P Bonomi, JA Blessing, FB Stehman, PJ DiSaia, L Walton and FJ Major
The Gynecologic Oncology Group has conducted a randomized prospective trial
comparing cisplatin 50 mg/m2 every 21 days (regimen 1), 100 mg/m2 every 21
days (regimen 2), and cisplatin 20 mg/m2 for five consecutive days repeated
every 21 days (regimen 3). Four hundred ninety-seven evaluable patients
have been accrued on this study. The response rates were 20.7%, 31.4%, and
25.0%, for regimens 1, 2, and 3, respectively; the complete remission rates
were 10.0%, 12.7%, and 8.6% for regimens 1, 2, and 3, respectively. The
median duration of response ranged from 3.9 to 4.8 months, the median
progression-free interval from 3.7 to 4.6 months, and the median survival
time from 6.1 to 7.1 months. The difference in response rates for regimens
1 and 2 is statistically significant (P = .015) but less than the magnitude
originally considered clinically significant. The differences in complete
remission rates, response duration, progression-free interval, and survival
times are not statistically significant. The following types of toxicity
were observed: serum creatinine level greater than 2 mg/dL and/or BUN level
greater than 40 mg/dL was 7%, 14%, and 17% on regimens 1, 2, and 3,
respectively; leukocyte count less than 4,000/microL was 27%, 44%, and 41%
on regimens 1, 2, and 3, respectively. Nausea and vomiting occurred in 74
patients (83%). The regimen consisting of a 100- mg/m2 single dose has
produced a statistically significant higher response rate than the 50 mg/m2
regimen while producing no appreciable differences in complete remission
rate, response duration, progression- free interval, or survival. In
addition, the higher dose regimen was associated with greater
myelosuppression and nephrotoxicity.
