Brief Summary: RATIONALE Darbepoetin alfa and epoetin alfa may stimulate red blood cell production and treat anemia in patients who are receiving chemotherapy It is not yet known whether darbepoetin alfa is more effective than epoetin alfa in treating patients with anemia

PURPOSE Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of darbepoetin alfa with that of epoetin alfa in treating anemia in patients who are receiving chemotherapy for cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

Compare the efficacy of darbepoetin alfa vs epoetin alfa for anemia in patients with non-myeloid malignancies receiving chemotherapy

OUTLINE This is a randomized open-label multicenter study Patients are stratified according to screening hemoglobin concentration less than 100 gdL vs 100-110 gdL and type of concurrent chemotherapy platinum-based vs non-platinum-based Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms

Arm I Patients receive darbepoetin alfa subcutaneously SC every other week for 12 weeks ie on weeks 1 3 5 7 9 and 11
Arm II Patients receive epoetin alfa SC once weekly for 12 weeks Patients are followed at 1 and 3 weeks

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 600 patients 300 per treatment arm will be accrued for this study within 6 months
