Purpose
RATIONALE: Erlotinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Stereotactic body radiation therapy may be able to send x-rays directly to the tumor and cause less damage to normal tissue. Giving erlotinib together with stereotactic body radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells.
PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving erlotinib together with stereotactic body radiation therapy works in treating patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer.

OBJECTIVES:
Primary
- To evaluate the effect of erlotinib and stereotactic body radiotherapy on 6-month progression-free survival of patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer.
Secondary
- To describe the actuarial rate of in-field local control and out-of-field disease progression in patients treated with this regimen.
- To evaluate the safety of this regimen in these patients.
- To evaluate overall survival of patients treated with this regimen.
- To evaluate the duration of erlotinib usage and time to initiation of third-line systemic therapy (chemotherapy or biologic agent) in these patients.
OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.
Patients receive oral erlotinib hydrochloride once daily in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Beginning 1-4 weeks after the initiation of erlotinib hydrochloride, patients undergo stereotactic body radiotherapy.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed every 3 months.

DISEASE CHARACTERISTICS:
Histologically confirmed non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)
- Locally advanced or metastatic disease
- Measurable disease
- Failed at least one prior chemotherapy regimen
No more than 6 discrete active extracranial lesions (≤ 3 in the liver and ≤ 3 in the lung) identified by positron emission tomography (PET) and by correlative plain film, CT scan, or MRI within 8 weeks prior to the initiation of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT)
- Residual PET activity is not considered a site of active disease if the CT scan appearance is stable or improved over a period of ≥ 3 months (for patients who received prior radiotherapy to the primary site in the lung)
- Patients who received prior radiotherapy to the primary site will be ineligible for the study if there is CT scan evidence of disease progression within the past 3 months
- Patients with unirradiated primary sites are potentially eligible for the study
- No more than 2 contiguous vertebral metastases will be considered a single site of disease
- No metastatic disease invading the esophagus, stomach, intestines, or mesenteric lymph nodes
- No cutaneous metastasis of NSCLC
- No known brain metastases
PATIENT CHARACTERISTICS:
- Karnofsky performance status 70-100%
- AST and ALT ≤ 2 times upper limit of normal (ULN)
- Total bilirubin ≤ 2 times ULN
- Alkaline phosphatase ≤ 5 times ULN
- Granulocyte count ≥ 1,500/mm³
- Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 times ULN
- FEV1 ≥ 1 L (for patients who will be receiving SBRT for lung tumors and who are known or suspected by the treating radiation oncologist to have compromised lung function)
- Not pregnant
- Negative pregnancy test
- Fertile patients must use effective contraception
- No serious, uncontrolled infection(s)
- No significant weight loss (> 10%) within the past 3 months
- No other carcinoma within the past 5 years except cured nonmelanoma skin cancer or treated in situ cervical cancer
PRIOR CONCURRENT THERAPY:
- See Disease Characteristics
- More than 4 weeks since prior participation in an investigational drug study
- No prior EGFR inhibitors
