Azacitidine and Entinostat in Treating Patients With Stage I Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer That Has Been Removed By Surgery

Why stopped (as posted): Slow Accrual due to patients not wanting daily clinic administration of 5AZA and/or 6 months of treatment after surgery.
Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This study combines the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) methyltransferase inhibitor, 5-azacitidine (5-AZA), with an orally bioavailable histone deacetylase inhibitor, entinostat (SNDX-275), for the adjuvant treatment of patients with resected stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NCSLC).

Inclusion Criteria: * Patients must be status post complete (R0) surgical resection of pathologically-proven NSCLC (stage IA-IB according to AJCC version 7) * Patients must be at least 4 weeks out from completion of surgery * Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status =\< 2 * Absolute neutrophil count \>= 1,000/mcL * Platelets \>= 100,000/mcL * Total bilirubin =\< 1.5 X institutional upper limit of normal * Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase \[SGOT\])/alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (serum glutamic pyruvate transaminase \[SGPT\]) =\< 2.5 X institutional upper limit of normal * Creatinine =\< 1.5 X institutional upper limit of normal * The effects of entinostat and 5-azacitidine on the developing human fetus at the recommended therapeutic dose are unknown; for this reason, women of child-bearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry and for the duration of study participation; should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately * Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document Exclusion Criteria: * Patients must be within 8 weeks of completing surgery * Patients who have received prior chemotherapy or radiation for treatment of their current diagnosis of lung cancer * Patients with sub-lobar resections (ie: wedge resection or segmentectomy) * Patients without mediastinal lymph node specimens from mediastinoscopy or surgery (at least level R4 or 7 for right sided tumors OR at least level 5, 6 or 7 for left sided tumors) * Patients may not be receiving any other investigational agents * History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to entinostat, 5-azacitidine or other agents used in the study * 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 * Pregnant women are excluded from this study because entinostat and 5-azacitidine are agents with the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects; because there is an unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with entinostat or 5-azacitidine, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated on this protocol; these potential risks may also apply to other agents used in this study * Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive patients on combination antiretroviral therapy are ineligible because of the potential for pharmacokinetic interactions with entinostat or 5-azacitidine; in addition, these patients are at increased risk of lethal infections when treated with marrow-suppressive therapy
