Thirty-nine patients with stage IIIMO non-cell bronchogenic carcinoma (NOBC) were treated with combined modality therapy: radiation therapy and chemotherapy with cyclophosphamide, adriamycin, methotrexate, and procarbazine. The median survival for all patients treated was 9.6 months compared to 6.4 months for historical controls (P = 0.015). Patients who responded to the treatment program had a significantly longer survival (median, 15.2 months) compared to nonresponders and historical controls (P less than 0.005). It is concluded that combined modality therapy is moderately effective therapy in stage IIIMO NOBC.
