A Phase II Study of Sorafenib in Combination With Carboplatin and Docetaxel in the First Line Treatment of Stage IIIB/IV Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
This is an open-label, single institution, phase II study of Sorafenib in combination with
docetaxel and carboplatin in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. Docetaxel and
carboplatin will be given on day 1 of every three week cycle. Patients will take Sorafenib
twice a day on the 1st day of treatment and continue to take the medication every day until
progression of disease, prohibitive toxicity, or patient withdrawal from the study.
Chemotherapy courses will repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or
unacceptable toxicity for a total of four cycles.
