Summary
This randomized phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of fibroblast growth
factor receptor (FGFR) inhibitor AZD4547 when given with docetaxel and to see how well it
works in treating patients with recurrent non-small cell lung cancer. Drugs used in
chemotherapy, such as docetaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells,
either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. FGFR inhibitor AZD4547 may
stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is
not yet known whether docetaxel and FGFR inhibitor AZD4547 are more effective when given
together or separately.
