Abstract excerpt
To assess systematically whether potentially functional polymorphisms in DNA repair genes influence the clinical behavior of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), we examined the impact of a comprehensive panel of 218 signal nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in 50 candidate DNA repair genes on overall survival of NSCLC in a case-cohort of 568 lung cancer patients. SNPs associated with lung cancer prognosis primarily...
