Summary

This phase II trial will evaluate phyto-therapy's, in the form of blueberry powder, synergistic effect on second-line therapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The proposition is that the addition of blueberry polyphenolics to routine docetaxel therapy will have a significant, positive effect in the response rate and overall survival.
