unresectable

- At least 1 unirradiated target lesion measurable by RECIST

- Adequate hematologic, renal and hepatic function

- ECOG 0,1

- Able to understand and sign an Informed Consent

Exclusion Criteria:

- Presence of brain metastases, unless the patient received brain irradiation,
including adequate stereotactic radiosurgery, at least 4 weeks prior to
randomization, and is stable, asymptomatic, and off steroids for at least 3 weeks
prior to randomization

- Received prior systemic anti-cancer therapy for NSCLC

- History of allergic reactions to compounds of similar chemical or biologic
composition to talactoferrin or the chemotherapy drugs

- Any gastrointestinal tract disease or other medical condition resulting in the
inability to take oral medications

- History of other malignancies except: (i) adequately treated basal or squamous cell
carcinoma of the skin; (ii) curatively treated, a) in situ carcinoma of the uterine
cervix, b) prostate cancer, or c) superficial bladder cancer; or (iii) other
curatively treated solid tumor with no evidence of disease for ≥5 years

- Uncontrolled ischemic heart disease, or uncontrolled symptomatic congestive heart
failure

- Serious active infection

- Psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit study compliance

- Other uncontrolled serious chronic disease or conditions that in the investigator's
opinion could render compliance or follow-up in the protocol problematic

- Concurrent radiotherapy or radiotherapy within 4 weeks prior to randomization or
previous radiotherapy at the indicator sites (the sites that are to be followed for
determination of a response)

- Concurrent systemic corticosteroid therapy within 4 weeks prior to randomization,
except prophylactic use of steroids prior to paclitaxel administration

- Known HIV positive or on active anti-retroviral therapy

- Known Hepatitis B surface antigen positive or hepatitis C positive
