Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of the three-drug combination paclitaxel, carboplatin, and gemcitabine to the two-drug combination gemcitabine and vinorelbine in patients with advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Upon determination of eligibility, patients will be randomly assigned to one of two treatment arms:

* Paclitaxel + Carboplatin + Gemcitabine
* Gemcitabine + Vinorelbine

For ever 2 patients treated, 1 will receive treatment A (Paclitaxel + Carboplatin + Gemcitabine) and 1 will receive treatment B (Gemcitabine + Vinorelbine). The study is not blinded so both the patient and the doctor will know which treatment has been assigned.
