  • Patients must have a minimum of 4 cm of measurable disease in any one continuous dimension as seen on diagnostic CT scan.
  • Pulmonary function tests with forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) ≥1.45 liters/second.
  • Patients must be 21 years of age or older. There is no maximum age restriction.
  • Patients must have a Zubrod performance status of 0 or 1.
  • Patients must have normal organ and marrow function as defined below:
  • leukocyte \> 3,000/:I
  • absolute neutrophil count \>1,500/:I
  • platelets \>100,000/:I
  • bilirubin within normal institutional limits
  • Aspartate transaminase (AST/SGOT)/Alanine transaminase (ALT/SGPT) 2.5 X institutional upper limit of normal
  • Creatinine within normal institutional limits OR creatinine clearance \> 60 mL/min/1.73 m\^2 for patients with creatinine levels above institutional normal.
  • Patients must have weight loss ≤ 10% over the past three months.
  • Women of child-bearing potential and men will be asked to use adequate contraception.
  • Patients must have the ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document.

Exclusion

  • Patients may not have had prior thoracic radiation at any time, or prior chemotherapy for the study cancer at any time.
  • Patients may not be receiving any other investigational agents for the study cancer.
  • Patients may not have evidence of brain metastases on baseline CT scan or MRI.
  • Patients may not have measurable gross disease in the thorax \<4 cm in any one continuous dimension.
  • Patients may not have a cytologically positive pleural effusion.
  • Patients may not have a prior invasive malignancy (unless disease-free for at least 3 years).
  • Patients may not have had surgical resection of the present cancer.
  • Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding will be excluded.
  • Patients must not have any co-morbidity with life expectancy ≤ 6 months, or any uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
  • Patients must not have severe lung disease defined by a history of severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) requiring 3 or more hospitalizations over the past year, or history of interstitial pneumonitis.
  • Patients must not have any concurrent active malignancy.
  • Patients must not have evidence of metastatic disease.
