Docetaxel, Cisplatin, and Erlotinib Hydrochloride in Treating Patients With Stage I-III Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Following Surgery

Summary

This phase I trial studies docetaxel, cisplatin, and erlotinib hydrochloride in treating patients with stage I-III non-small cell lung cancer following surgery. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel and cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Erlotinib hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving docetaxel, cisplatin, and erlotinib hydrochloride together may kill more tumor cells.
