Alternate Title Phase III Randomized Study of a Dietary Supplement Comprising Selected Vegetables-Sun's Soup in Patients With Stage IIIB or IV Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Undergoing Treatment With Best Supportive Care
Trial Description Selected vegetables- Sun's soup dietary supplement contains ingredients that may slow the growth of non-small cell lung cancer. It is not yet known whether selected vegetables-Sun's soup dietary supplement is more effective than a placebo in treating non-small cell lung cancer. This randomized phase III trial is studying selected vegetables-Sun's soup dietary supplement to see how well it works compared with a placebo in treating patients who are undergoing supportive care (radiation therapy, surgery, or palliative care) for stage IIIB or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. Eligibility criteria include the following:
Final eligibility for a clinical trial is determined by the health professionals conducting the trial. Patients will be randomly assigned (have an equal chance of being placed) to one of two treatment groups. Patients in group one will receive selected vegetables-Sun's soup dietary supplement by mouth once a day for up to 3 years. Patients in group two will receive a placebo by mouth once a day for up to 3 years. All patients will also receive radiation therapy, surgery, and palliative care for 3 years. Quality of life will be assessed periodically for approximately 22 months. After finishing treatment, patients will be evaluated periodically.
