14 NSCLC. A number of drugs are frequently used: cisplatin, carboplatin, paclitaxel, mitomycin, vinca alkaloids, ifosfamide, and etoposide. Newer regimens, such as carboplatin and paclitaxel, have improved activity over the regimens with which most controlled trials have been performed. Trials comparing chemotherapy with best supportive care for stage IV NSCLC have yielded conflicting results; however, several recent trials and meta-analyses suggest a small (several weeks to months increased survival) benefit from chemotherapy, and the costs of the chemotherapy option are less than the best supportive care because of lower utilization of palliative treatments. Several trials treating stage IIIB patients with chemotherapy plus radiation have demonstrated a longer survival with chemoradiotherapy than with radiation alone. Further trials are under way.

22 SCLC. Chemotherapy is the cornerstone of treatment for both limitedand extensive-stage SCLC. A variety of agents have activity. Many experts believe that regimens containing etoposide, an anthracycline and either carboplatin or cisplatin offer the best combination of efficacy. University of Milano
