Phase:

PHASE2

Brief Summary

This phase II trial is studying how well giving AZD2171 together with pemetrexed disodium works in treating patients with relapsed non-small cell lung cancer. AZD2171 and pemetrexed disodium may stop ...

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. Evaluate the response rate in patients with relapsed non-small cell lung cancer treated with AZD2171 and pemetrexed disodium. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. Assess the progression-...
