The Tissue Is the Issue: Personalized Medicine for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
6 Oct 2010
Abstract excerpt
The development of molecular markers is crucial for improving therapy in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Here, we review perspectives of biomarker-driven personalized therapy in NSCLC, with particular reference to the detection of EML4-ALK gene rearrangements. Different molecular assays, validation, and clinical application to different types of tissue specimens are discussed.
