Brief Summary

This study evaluates the use of Targretin capsules (bexarotene) in combination with standard chemotherapy for the treatment of metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) in patients who have not yet received chemotherapy for their lung cancer.

Detailed Description

This study evaluates the use of Targretin capsules (bexarotene) in combination with Carboplatin and Paclitaxel for the treatment of metastatic non-small cell lung cancer in patients who have not yet received chemotherapy for their lung cancer. Every patient receives a platinum-containing chemotherapy every three weeks for at least four chemotherapy cycles (approximately four months).
