EuroQol-5Dimension (EQ-5D) MUS Score at Baseline Secondary · Baseline

EQ-5D is a two-part questionnaire. The first part of mean utility score (MUS) consists of five items addressing five dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. Each dimension can be graded on three levels: 1-no problems, 2- slight problems, and 3-moderate problems, 4-severe problems, 5-extreme problems. Possible score ranges from 5-25 with higher scores indicating worse outcome.Both the five-item index score and the VAS score are transformed into a utility score between 0-"worst health state" and 1-"best health state."

Sponsor's own description

The investigators propose this phase I/II study to use weekly Nab-Paclitaxel (Abraxane) and carboplatin with concurrent radiation in local-regionally advanced lung cancer. There are no published human studies combining Nab-Paclitaxel (Abraxane) with radiation. The investigators will first confirm the tolerated dose (TD) of concurrent Nab-Paclitaxel (Abraxane) at 50mg/m2, and then will begin enrolling patients into the phase II component using either Nab-Paclitaxel (Abraxane) at the TD with carboplatin concurrent with daily radiation or paclitaxel with carboplatin concurrent with daily radiation.
