This is a single site Phase I dose escalation trial of the epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitor Erlotinib with the SRC tyrosine kinase inhibitor Dasatinib in patients with previously treated advanced stage (Stage IIIB/IV disease) Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC). The screening evaluation will consist of a medical history including dates/description of your initial NSCLC diagnosis and documentation of any previous treatment. There will also be a physical examination including vital signs, height, weight, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG)performance status, blood draws for Complete Blood Count (CBC) and Complete Metabolic Panel (CMP) tests, neurological examination, a pregnancy test for female patients of childbearing potential, and (if applicable) any observable tumor measurements all within 14 days before study enrollment. A screening Electrocardiogram (EKG) as well as clinical testing to evaluate all known sites of malignant lesions, including Computed Tomography (CTs) of the chest and upper abdomen, the adrenal glands; ultrasound; or radionuclide scans of the bones; and/or other radiographic studies should be performed within 30 days prior to enrollment.~The treatment regimen consists of Erlotinib tablets starting Day 1 and Dasatinib tablets starting Day 9 for a 28-day cycle. If there are no DLTs, dose escalation continues. Patients continuing on therapy past two cycles will be seen by the treating physician every 4 weeks and will have complete History and Physical (H&P), CBC, and CMP. Tumor measurement and response assessment will occur every 6-8 weeks. Dasatinib and Erlotinib will be continued until progression of disease, unacceptable toxicity, or patient request.~The recommended phase II dose for this combined treatment will be defined and patients will be treated at the recommended phase II dose to confirm tolerability.
