Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- Histologic or cytologic diagnosis of adenocarcinoma non-small cell lung cancer
- Stage IV non-small cell lung cancer or recurrent disease which cannot be approached with curative intent.
- First-line treatment with a standard platinum doublet chemotherapy regimen (carboplatin or cisplatin at standard dosing plus one of the following drugs at standard dosing: paclitaxel, docetaxel, vinblastine, vinorelbine, pemetrexed, or etoposide). Patients who received platinum-based chemotherapy for localized lung cancer (either adjuvant chemotherapy following surgery or chemotherapy given in conjunction with definitive radiation) are eligible if their cancer has recurred within 6 months of platinum-based chemotherapy.
- Must have recovered from toxic effects of prior chemotherapy
- ECOG performance status of 0-1
- Life expectancy of at least 12 weeks
- Age 18 or greater
- Must have measurable disease defined as at least one lesion that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest diameter to be recorded as \> 20 mm with conventional techniques or \> 10 mm with spiral CT scanning).
- Patients with prior malignancies are allowed, provided they have been treated with curative intent and have no evidence of active disease.
- Patients must be capable of giving informed consent and be willing and able to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plan and laboratory testing.
- Bilirubin \< 1.5 mg/dL
- Patients must have adequate liver function: AST and ALT \< 2.5 X upper limit of normal, alkaline phosphatase \< 2.5 X upper limit of normal, unless bone metastasis is present in the absence of liver metastasis
- Patients must have adequate bone marrow function: Platelets \>100,000 cells/mm3, Hemoglobin \> 9.0g/dL and ANC \> 1,500 cells/mm3
- Patients must have adequate renal function: creatinine \<1.5 mg/dL
- Women of childbearing potential and sexually active males must use an effective contraception method during treatment and for three months after completing treatment
- Negative serum β-hCG pregnancy test at screening for patients of childbearing potential.
- Patients must have \< Grade 2 pre-existing peripheral neuropathy (per CTCAE)
Exclusion
- Patients with EGFR or EML4-ALK mutations
- ECOG performance status \>1
- Patients previously treated with gemcitabine or Abraxane
- Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to: uncontrolled ongoing infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
- Known HIV or Hepatitis C
- Untreated central nervous system metastases. Patients are eligible if they are clinically stable, off all steroids after cranial irradiation (whole brain radiation therapy, focal radiation therapy, stereotactic radio surgery) ending at least 2 weeks prior to enrollment, or after surgical resection performed at least 2 weeks prior to enrollment.
- Concurrent treatment with other anticancer therapy, including other chemotherapy, immunotherapy, hormonal therapy, radiotherapy, chemo-embolization, targeted therapy, or an investigational agent
- Pregnant or breast-feeding patients, as chemotherapy is thought to present substantial risk to the fetus/infant. Men and women of reproductive potential may not participate in this study unless they have agreed to use an effective contraceptive method while in this study. (Postmenopausal woman must have been amenorrheic for at least 12 months to be considered of non-childbearing potential). Patients must agree to continue contraception for 3 months from the date of the last study drug administration
