Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy such as gemcitabine work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing Erlotinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth It is not yet known whether gemcitabine and erlotinib are more effective when given alone or together in treating non-small cell lung cancer

PURPOSE This randomized phase II trial is studying gemcitabine and erlotinib to compare how well they work when given alone or together as first-line therapy in treating older patients with stage IIIB or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

Compare the progression-free survival rate of older patients with stage IIIB or IV non-small cell lung cancer treated with gemcitabine hydrochloride vs erlotinib hydrochloride vs gemcitabine hydrochloride and erlotinib hydrochloride as first-line therapy

Secondary

Determine the response rate in patients receiving these regimens
Determine the overall survival rate in patients receiving these regimens
Determine the toxicity profile of these regimens in these patients
Determine the quality of life of patients receiving these regimens

OUTLINE This is a randomized open-label controlled parallel group multicenter study Patients are stratified by gender smoking status never or light vs current or former and ECOG performance status 0-1 vs 2 Patients are randomized to 1 of 3 treatment arms

Arm I Patients receive gemcitabine hydrochloride IV on days 1 and 8 Patients with progressive disease may cross over to arm II
Arm II Patients receive oral erlotinib hydrochloride daily on days 1-21
Arm III Patients receive gemcitabine hydrochloride as in arm I and erlotinib hydrochloride as in arm II

In all arms treatment repeats every 21 days for 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

After completion of study therapy patients are followed every 2 months for 3 years
