Background: Chemoradiation regimens of greater efficacy are needed for patients with locally advanced non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods: Patients between 20 and 74 years of age with unresectable NSCLC of stage IIIA or IIIB and a performance status of 0 or 1 were eligible for the study. In the phase II part of the study, patients received weekly nab-paclitaxel at 50 mg/m² together with weekly carboplatin at an area under the curve (AUC) of 2 mg mL^–1 min and concurrent radiotherapy with 60 Gy in 30 fractions. This concurrent phase was followed by a consolidation phase consisting of two 3-week cycles of nab-paclitaxel plus carboplatin. The primary end point of the phase II part of the study was progression-free survival (PFS). Results: Between October 2014 and November 2016, 58 patients were enrolled at 14 institutions in Japan, with 56 of these individuals being evaluable for treatment efficacy and safety. At the median follow-up time of 26.0 months (range, 4.0 to 49.6 months), the median overall survival (OS) was not reached (95% confidence interval [CI], 25.3 months to not reached) and the 2-year OS rate was 66.1% (95% CI, 52.1% to 76.8 %). The median PFS was 11.8 months (60% CI, 10.6 to 16.8 months; 95% CI, 8.2 to 21.0 months). The overall response rate was 76.8% (95% CI, 64.2% to 85.9%), and the disease control rate was 94.6% (95% CI, 85.4% to 98.2%). Subgroup analysis according to histology or age revealed no significant differences in median PFS or OS. Common toxicities of grade 3 or 4 in the concurrent phase included leukopenia (60.7%) and neutropenia (28.6%). Pneumonitis of grade 3 was observed in two patients during the study period. No treatment-related deaths occurred. Conclusions: Our results reveal encouraging feasibility and activity for concurrent chemoradiation with nab-paclitaxel at 50 mg/m² and carboplatin at an AUC of 2 mg mL^–1 min in patients with locally advanced NSCLC.
