Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells Drugs such as amifostine may protect normal cells from the side effects of chemotherapy and radiation therapy

PURPOSE Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of amifostine plus chemotherapy and radiation therapy in treating patients who have limited-stage small cell lung cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES I Determine the incidence and duration of moderate and severe acute esophagitis in patients with limited stage small cell lung cancer treated with amifostine chemoprotection plus chemotherapy and radiotherapy II Determine the tumor response to this regimen in these patients

OUTLINE Course 1 Patients receive amifostine IV over 5 minutes daily followed by radiotherapy twice daily Monday through Friday for 3 weeks Patients receive cisplatin IV over 30-60 minutes on day 1 and etoposide IV over 1 hour on days 1 2 and 3 Courses 2-4 Patients receive amifostine over 15 minutes on day 1 followed by cisplatin IV over 30-60 minutes and etoposide IV over 1 hour every 3 weeks Patients are followed at 1 month then every 3 months until death

PROJECTED ACCRUAL Approximately 33 patients will be accrued for this study within 1-2 years
