Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well vinorelbine tartrate and paclitaxel works in treating older patients with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to other placed in the body. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as vinorelbine tartrate and paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving combination chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells.

Primary outcomes (1)
- measure
- Progression-free Survival.
- timeFrame
- Time from first therapy until first documentation of clinical progression, relapse or death assessed up to 5 years
- description
- Time from first therapy until first documentation of clinical progression, relapse or death. Progression was defined as per RECIST v1.0 criteria as an at least a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum longest diameter recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions. The Kaplan-Meier method will be used to estimate time to event distributions.
