2)Locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC (Clinical Stage IIIB/IV, according to TNM classification ver.7) for which curative radiotherapy is not indicated.
3)Age of 20 years or older at entry.
4)ECOG performance status 2 or less.
5)Measurable or non-measurable lesions ( A lesion confirmed with objective evidence such as CT, MRI images, or X-ray taken within 21 days before randomizatzation, regardless of its measurability). Patients with only pleural effusion can not be registered.
6)Progression or recurrence after the last treatment is confirmed by radiological image. Previous treatments should include at least one platinum-based regimen. The number of previous regimens must be 3 or less for whom EGFR-TKI (gefitinib/erlotinib) was administered, or 2 or less for whom EGFR-TKI was not administered for metastatic disease.
Adjuvant chemotherapy is counted as one regimen if the disease recurred within a year after the completion of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy, or within a year after surgery in patients given preoperative adjuvant chemotherapy.
7)Ability to take drugs orally.
8)Adequate major organ functions within 7 days before randomization, as defined
below:
Neutrophil count >= 2,000/mm3
Platelet count >= 100,000/mm3
Hemoglobin >= 9.0 g/dL
AST =< 2.5 x ULN
ALT =< 2.5 x ULN
Total bilirubin =< 1.5 x ULN
PaO2 >= 60 Torr or SpO2 >= 94%
CCr measured or estimated by the Cockcroft-Gault formula >= 60 ml/min.
9)Written informed consent

Exclusion Criteria

1)Previous treatment with docetaxel or fluoropyrimidine.
Patient who experienced recurrence more than one year after completion of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy with tegafur-uracil capsules/granules (UFT) will be eligible.
2)Chemotherapy within 4 weeks and/or EGFR-TKI within 2 weeks before the initial administration of the study drug.
3)Curative radiotherapy within 6 weeks before the initial administration of the study drug. Palliative local radiation within 2 weeks before the initial administration of the study drug.
4)Major surgery within 4 weeks and/or surgical incision within 2 weeks before the initial administration of the study drug.
5)Symptomatic brain metastasis(Patients with known asymptomatic brain metastasis is allowed for registration if they are clinically stable and no treatment is required).
6)Pleural, peritoneal, or pericardial effusion requiring treatment.
7)Active infection requiring administration of systemic treatment with antibiotics, e.g., body temperature rose higher than 38 degree centigrade.
8)Patients with Grede 2 or higher diarrhea.
9)Severe complication(s), e.g., paresis of intestines, ileus, radiographically confirmed interstitial pneumonitis (except documented radiation pneumonitis) or pulmonary fibrosis, poorly-controlled diabetes, cardiac failure, renal failure, liver failure, active gastrointestinal ulceration, myocardial infarction within 6 months, and Grade3 or higher angina.
10)Patients with autoimmune disease requiring treatment with an immunosuppressive agent such as azathiopurine, chlorambucil, cyclophosphamide, ciclosporin, methotrexate, and steroids.
11)Active double cancer (synchronous cancer, or metachronous cancer with less than 5 years of disease-free interval), except in situ cervical cancer cured by local treatment, gastric or colon cancer curatively resectable with endoscopy, and resectable non-melanoma skin cancer.
12)Confirmed or possible pregnancy, lactation, willingness to become pregnant (for women), or willingness to have a child (for men).
13)Psychiatric disorder or symptom that makes participation of the patient difficult.
14)Continuous systemic administration of a steroid (oral or intravenous).
15)History of severe hypersensitivity reaction to polysorbate 80, or to tegafur-uracil capsules/granules (UFT).
16)Current use of flucytosine.
17)Participation in other registration trial within one month before randomization in this trial.
18)Caucasian
19)Physician concludes that the patient's participation in this trial is inappropriate.
