This is a Phase I/II trial of elderly patients (> 70 years of age) with previously
un-treated Advanced Stage Non-Squamous NSCLC with Stage IIIB (with malignant pleural

Progression Free Survival (PFS)
The primary objective was to determine the progression free survival (PFS), in newly diagnosed patients with advanced Non Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) who are treated with a regimen consisting of Bevacizumab(B), pemetrexed(A), and erlotnib(T). This was a Phase I/II study. This trial was halted after the Phase I component was completed. The Phase II component was never initiated.
