Phase I study of irinotecan and cisplatin with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor support for advanced non-small-cell lung cancer.

Abstract

The recommended dose for phase II studies is 80 mg/m2 of CPT-11, and 80 mg/m2 of cisplatin plus rhG-CSF. With the use of rhG-CSF, the CPT-11 dose can be increased 33% above that in the original regimen (60 mg/m2 of CPT-11 and 80 mg/m2 of cisplatin).
