Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells It is not yet known whether giving chemotherapy before combined chemotherapy and radiation therapy is more effective than combined chemotherapy and radiation therapy alone in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer

PURPOSE Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of carboplatin and paclitaxel followed by radiation therapy and chemotherapy with radiation therapy and chemotherapy alone in treating patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be removed during surgery
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES I Compare the effects of concurrent chemoradiotherapy utilizing carboplatin and paclitaxel with or without prior induction chemotherapy on overall response rate disease-free survival and overall survival in patients with unresectable stage III non-small cell lung cancer II Compare the effects of these treatments on locoregional vs distant failure in these patients III Compare the toxicity of these treatments in these patients

OUTLINE This is a randomized study Patients are stratified by measurable vs evaluable disease Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms Arm I immediate concurrent chemoradiotherapy Patients receive IV paclitaxel over 1 hour followed by IV carboplatin over 30 minutes on day 1 and radiation therapy to the chest 5 times a week beginning on day 1 Treatment repeats weekly for a total of 7 courses Arm II induction chemotherapy followed by delayed concurrent chemoradiotherapy Patients receive IV paclitaxel over 3 hours followed by IV carboplatin over 30 minutes treatment repeats every 3 weeks for 2 courses Patients then receive 7 courses of concurrent chemoradiotherapy as in Arm I Total treatment time is 13 weeks Patients are followed every 2 months for 2 years then every 4 months for the next 2 years then annually thereafter

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 360 patients will be accrued for this study within 3 years
