Summary

RATIONALE: A positron emission tomography scan is a procedure in which a small amount of radioactive sugar is injected into a vein, and a scanner is used to make detailed, computerized pictures of areas inside the body where tumor cells are found. This study is looking at whether the drug zoledronic acid interferes with the ability of a PET scan to find tumor cells.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well positron emission tomography works when given together with zoledronic acid in finding tumor cells in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

3'-deoxy-3'-[18F]FLT

Patient should receive the dose of zoledronic acid within 48 hours of the first FLT PET scan. The second FLT PET scan will be done 6-8 days after the dose of zoledronic acid.

PROCEDURE

Single photon emission computed tomography

Patient should receive the dose of zoledronic acid within 48 hours of the first FLT PET scan. The second FLT PET scan will be done 6-8 days after the dose of zoledronic acid.
