Special Category:
NCI Web site featured trial Objectives - Determine the efficacy of selenium in terms of reducing the incidence of second primary lung tumors in participants with previously resected stage I non-small cell lung cancer.
- Evaluate the qualitative and quantitative toxicity of selenium in these patients.
- Compare the incidence of specific cancers, mortality from cancer, and overall survival of participants treated with selenium vs those treated with placebo.
Entry Criteria Disease Characteristics:
- Histologically confirmed, completely resected stage IA (pT1, N0) or IB
(pT2,
N0) non-small lung cancer (except carcinoid)*
- Completion of treatment for stage I lung cancer within the past 6 to 36 months and currently
disease free
- At least one mediastinal lymph node sampled at resection
[Note: *SWOG and CALGB patients must be T1, N0; CALGB patients may be T2, N0 provided disease was completely resected prior to June 1, 2001 and participation in CALGB 9633 was refused if offered] - No evidence of new or recurrent lung cancer on chest x-ray within the
past 8
weeks
- No synchronous lung or non-lung lesions or metastasis, even if resectable
- No history of more than one primary lung cancer at any time
Prior/Concurrent Therapy:
Biologic therapy: Chemotherapy: - No prior or concurrent chemotherapy for recurrent lung cancer
Endocrine therapy: Radiotherapy: - No prior or concurrent radiotherapy for recurrent lung cancer
Surgery: - See Disease Characteristics
- No concurrent surgery
Other: - Prior mineral, herbal, phytochemical, or vitamin
supplementation allowed
- No concurrent supplement(s) containing more than 50 micrograms
of selenium
- Concurrent non-selenium containing mineral, herbal,
phytochemical, or vitamin supplementation allowed if schedule and supplementation prior
to study remains unchanged
Patient Characteristics:
Age: Performance status: Life expectancy: Hematopoietic: Hepatic: - Bilirubin no greater than upper limit of normal
(ULN)
- SGOT or SGPT no greater than ULN
Renal: Other: - No concurrent or other prior cancer within the past 5 years
except localized non-melanoma skin cancer
Expected Enrollment 1960A total of 1,960 participants (980 per arm) will be accrued for this study
within 4 years. Outcomes Primary Outcome(s)Incidence second of primary lung tumors Toxicity Incidence of specific cancers, mortality from cancer, and overall survival
Outline This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter
study. Participants are stratified according to smoking status (actively
smoking or stopped less than 1 year ago vs stopped at least 1 year ago vs
never smoked or no more than 100 cigarettes ever), gender, and stage and previous therapy (stage IA vs stage IB with previous therapy vs. stage IB with no previous therapy). Participants
are randomized to one of two arms. - Arm I: Participants receive oral selenium yeast daily for 6 months.
Treatment repeats every 6 months for 8 courses for a total of 4 years in the
absence of unacceptable toxicity.
- Arm II: Participants receive an oral yeast placebo as in arm I.
Participants are followed annually.

Note: The purpose of most clinical trials listed in this database is to test new cancer treatments, or new methods of diagnosing, screening, or preventing cancer. Because all potentially harmful side effects are not known before a trial is conducted, dose and schedule modifications may be required for participants if they develop side effects from the treatment or test. The therapy or test described in this clinical trial is intended for use by clinical oncologists in carefully structured settings, and may not prove to be more effective than standard treatment. A responsible investigator associated with this clinical trial should be consulted before using this protocol. Back to Top |
