This is a Phase 2 study of pemetrexed and gemcitabine chemotherapy given once every 14 days to patients with advanced stage non-small cell lung cancer. This treatment is for patients that have not received any prior chemotherapy treatment for lung cancer. The primary goal is to find out if the tumor gets smaller or disappears with this treatment.

Exclusion Criteria:
Have been treated with an investigational/research drug within the last month. Have cancer that has spread to the brain and is causing symptoms. Have an active infection or other serious medical condition. Have a second cancer in addition to non-small cell lung cancer. Can not stop taking aspirin or other anti-inflammatory agents for 5-8 days.
