Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the tolerability and efficacy of the addition of rofecoxib to first-line chemotherapy and to evaluate the efficacy of prolonged continuous infusion of gemcitabine in combination with cisplatin in the treatment of patients affected by advanced non-small cell lung cancer
Detailed Description: The primary end-points of the GECO study

To evaluate the tolerability of three innovative schedules of treatment for advanced NSCLC
To evaluate the efficacy of the addition of rofecoxib to first-line chemotherapy in the treatment of patients affected by advanced NSCLC
To evaluate the efficacy of prolonged continuous infusion pci of gemcitabine with the fixed infusion rate of 10 mgsqmminute versus the standard administration in 30 minutes in combination with cisplatin in the treatment of patients affected by advanced NSCLC

Four treatment arms are planned

ARM A standard treatment cisplatin gemcitabine
ARM B cisplatin gemcitabine rofecoxib
ARM C cisplatin pci gemcitabine 10 mgsqmminute
ARM D cisplatin pci gemcitabine 10 mgsqmminute rofecoxib

The phase II part of the study for experimental arms B C and D will be conducted to evaluate tolerability in the three treatment arms

The phase III study for efficacy has been designed according to a factorial 2x2 model with the planned comparison of

The efficacy of rofecoxib A C arms without rofecoxib vs BD arms with rofecoxib
The efficacy of pci gemcitabine A B arms with standard infusion of gemcitabine vs C D arms with pci gemcitabine
