Nucleotide Excision Repair Pathways Involved in Cisplatin Resistance in Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer
1 Jul 2003
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: In spite of the growing list of genetic abnormalities identified as being involved in DNA repair pathways that alter chemosensitivity in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients, translational assays have not yet been developed for use in individualized chemotherapy. METHODS: In metastatic NSCLC, no single cisplatin-based chemotherapy regimen has been shown to be superior to any other. Although...
