Abstract excerpt

The presence of fusion genes between the anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) and echinoderm microtubule-associated protein-like 4 (EML4) genes is useful for determining appropriate molecular-targeted therapies in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The diagnosis of NSCLC is often judge...
