Studies of chemotherapy for patients with small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) have shown that teniposide (T) may have higher activity than etoposide (E). In this randomized, controlled Phase III study, the authors compared cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and vincristine (CAV) with E and CAV with T as induction treatments for patients with SCLC. A second objective of the study was to study patients who had achieved complete response (CR). They were considered for a second randomization to maintenance therapy, in which they would receive either recombinant interferon-alpha (rIFN-alpha) or no treatment.
