Brief Summary: This phase II trial is studying how well sorafenib works in treating patients with stage IIIB or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer Sorafenib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth It may also stop the growth of non-small cell lung cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor
Detailed Description: PRIMARY OBJECTIVES
I Determine the response rate in patients with stage IIIB or IV non-small cell lung cancer treated with sorafenib
II Determine the clinical toxic effects of this drug in these patients
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES
I Determine the 24-week progression-free survival rate in patients treated with this drug
II Determine the overall survival of patients treated with this drug III Determine the time to disease progression in patients treated with this drug
IV Correlate predictive disease markers K-ras and B-raf mutations and ERKpERK AKTpAKT and VEGFR2p-VEGFR2 expression in these patients with the activity of this drug
OUTLINE This is a multicenter study
Patients receive oral sorafenib twice daily on days 1-28 Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity
Patients are followed every 6 months for up to 5 years
