Brief 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.
Detailed Description:
This study is designed to evaluate the feasibility of using blueberry powder (rich in anthocyanidins) as an adjunct therapy with the conventional chemotherapy drug paclitaxel/docetaxel for treatment of NSCLC. The study is based on information from published studies in which blueberry anthocyanidins (bioflavonoids which give blueberries their color) have been shown to regulate a vast array of molecular targets, and on our own exciting and compelling preliminary data showing that blueberry anthocyanidins elicited potent synergistic chemo-sensitizing effects in two highly aggressive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell lines.
