Docetaxel and Vinorelbine Plus Filgrastim in Treating Patients With Stage IIIB or Stage IV Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Study:

A Phase II Study of Docetaxel and Vinorelbine in Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Carcinoma

Rationale:

Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. Colony-stimulating factors such as filgrastim may increase the number of immune cells found in bone marrow or peripheral blood and may help a person`s immune system recover from the side effects of chemotherapy.

Purpose:

Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy plus filgrastim in treating patients who have stage IIIB or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer.
