Study Summary

This trial is studying volociximab and erlotinib as a possible treatment for non-small cell lung cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (stage III or IV) who have either failed at least one chemotherapy treatment or refused first-line therapy. They must not be pregnant, should use effective contraception if fertile, and have adequate organ function as indicated by specific blood counts and chemistries.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing the combination of volociximab, a monoclonal antibody that may block tumor blood flow, with erlotinib, an enzyme inhibitor that could stop tumor growth. This phase II trial aims to see how well this combo works in treating patients with advanced lung cancer.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include reactions related to the immune system's response to monoclonal antibodies like volociximab and issues from blocking enzymes with erlotinib such as rash or diarrhea. Specific side effects will depend on individual patient responses.
