Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To investigate the association between a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of ERCC1, Asn118Asn (C → T), and the response of patients with late-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (n = 142) to cisplatin-based chemotherapy. METHODS: The SNP, Asn118Asn (C → T), in codon 118 of ERCC1 was detected using an AllGlo™ Probe-based real-time PCR kit. The short-term clinical outcomes were evaluated by...
