1 Modest Reductions in Dose Intensity and Drug-Induced Neutropenia have No Major Impact on Survival of Patients with Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Treated with Platinum- Doublet Chemotherapy  Andre T. Brunetto, MD, Craig P. Carden, FRACP, James Myerson, MD, Ana Luisa Faria, MD, Sue Ashley, PhD, Sanjay Popat, MRCP, PhD, Mary E.R. O'Brien, MD, FRPC  Journal of Thoracic Oncology  Volume 5, Issue 9, Pages (September 2010) DOI: /JTO.0b013e3181eba7f9 Copyright © 2010 International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer Terms and Conditions

2 FIGURE 1 Overall survival (OS) and time-to-progression (TTP) curves for platinum (carboplatin and cisplatin), vinorelbine (navelbine), and gemcitabine using the landmark method (cycle 4 d 1, start point). None of the survival curves demonstrate any significant association between relative dose intensity (RDI) and outcomes (OS and TTP) for any of the chemotherapy agents.

3 FIGURE 2 OS curves are shown using the landmark method for different grades of neutropenia. Worst grades of neutropenia (0−2 vs. 3−4) and (0 vs. 1−4) are compared, and no significant difference between groups is demonstrated.
