Study Summary

RATIONALE: Pemetrexed disodium and erlotinib hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. It is not yet known whether giving pemetrexed disodium or docetaxel together with erlotinib hydrochloride is more effective than giving pemetrexed disodium or docetaxel alone in treating non-small lung cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying how well giving pemetrexed disodium or docetaxel together with or without erlotinib hydrochloride works in treating patients with stage IIIB or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer.
