Summary
RATIONALE: Prinomastat may stop the growth of non-small cell lung cancer by stopping blood
flow to the tumor. Drugs used in chemotherapy stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop
growing or die.
PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to determine the effectiveness of prinomastat plus
cisplatin and gemcitabine in treating patients who have metastatic or recurrent non-small
cell lung cancer.
