Participant milestones

Participant milestones
Measure
Treatment (Paclitaxel, Carboplatin, Erlotinib Hydrochloride)
Patients receive paclitaxel IV over 3 hours and carboplatin IV over 30 minutes on day 1. Patients also receive oral erlotinib daily. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients who achieve a pathologic complete response, those initially suboptimally debulked with a response, and patients who elect not to undergo surgical reassessment but who achieve a complete clinical response receive maintenance erlotinib for an additional 12 months. paclitaxel: Given IV carboplatin: Given IV erlotinib hydrochloride: Given PO laboratory biomarker analysis: Correlative studies
