This is a phase III randomized study comparing induction treatments of Gemcitabine and Carboplatin versus Paclitaxel and Carboplatin, with or without consolidation therapy for patients that do not have any evidence of disease after completion of six cycles of induction therapy. Patients with disease after induction therapy will crossover to receive single agent therapy.
This study (Study B9E-US-S302) is a multicenter, comparative, open-label randomized, superiority, trial evaluating Gemcitabine and Carboplatin to the standard of care. Both treatment arms will be given the option to receive elective consolidation therapy of Paclitaxel 135 mg/m\^2 given every 28 days for one year. Patients not achieving a complete response will crossover to the opposite single agent.

Progression Free Survival (PFS)
Progression free survival was defined as the duration from the date of randomization to the first date of documented disease progression or death from any cause. Tumor assessments were performed every three 21-day cycles during induction and crossover. Progression free survival was censored at the date of the last follow-up visit for participants who were still alive and who had not progressed. Results are presented as a comparison between the two study treatment sequences (induction therapy followed by elective consolidation or crossover therapy) rather than the two induction therapies.
Time frame: Baseline to measured progressive disease or death up to 82 months
Proportion of Participants With Response (Response Rate)
Response rate (RR) = proportion of participants with best overall Complete Response (CR: disappearance of all target lesions \[TL\]) or Partial Response (PR: 30% decrease in sum of longest diameter of TL). Induction therapy RR = number of participants with CR or PR during induction divided by number of participants with measurable disease at baseline (TL measurement during screening). Crossover therapy RR = number of participants with CR or PR during crossover divided by number of participants with measurable disease at baseline (latest TL measurement by first dose date of crossover therapy).
Time frame: Baseline to measured progressive disease up to 82 months
Time to Treatment Failure
Time to treatment failure was defined as the duration from date of randomization to the date of the first of the following events: early discontinuation of study therapy; progression of disease, or death due to any cause. Time to treatment failure will be censored at the date of the last follow-up visit for participants who did not discontinue early, who are still alive, and who have not progressed. Results are presented as a comparison between the two study treatment sequences (induction therapy followed by elective consolidation or crossover therapy) rather than the two induction therapies.
Time frame: Baseline to stopping treatment up to 82 months
Overall Survival
Overall survival is defined as the duration from baseline to death. For participants who are still alive at the data cut-off date, survival will be censored at the last contact date. Results are presented as a comparison between the two study treatment sequences (induction therapy followed by elective consolidation or crossover therapy) rather than the two induction therapies.
Time frame: Baseline to death from any cause up to 82 months
